Geografia e Matemática: quais são os diálogos possíveis?

Abstract

We know that within the school environment there are still thoughts and prejudgments about the relationship of students with the subject of mathematics, pointing out that it is the most complicated subject, that it is impossible to learn and that they will not be approved. Therefore, there are ways for us to demystify these fallacies and, at the same time, find new approaches to make mathematics teaching more attractive and enjoyable. The importance of applying this type of tool is to show the student that it is possible to reconcile different fields of study and take advantage of the benefits and advantages that interdisciplinarity offers, both for the professor and for the student. During the reading and study of some articles, books and projects, we also tried to show that it is possible to relate contents addressed in the areas of exact sciences and humanities, as this has been a challenge for teachers. We realized how productive this type of approach can become in the school environment, such as preparing activities that relate to the student's daily life, being able to approach certain content in various ways, improving the interpretation of exercises and among other positive aspects. Thus, encouraging the use of interdisciplinarity and teaching how to apply it was one of the purposes for which this work was carried out and planned, seeking to reach teachers and students.
