O uso do origami como recurso didático-metodológico para o ensino de geometria

Abstract

The teaching of mathematics in general is considered, by many students, very difficult and uninteresting. We must immediately develop motivating activities that arouse the their interest. In this way, this work aims to propose activities adchessing concepts and notions of plane and spatial geometry, using Origami as a pedagogical resource. The use of folds make the classes more dynamic, pleasurable and contributes significantly for interaction and partcipation of students in training concepts and knowledge. In addition to improving concentration and self-esteem of students, the trial feature allows students to formulate conjectures and exploitation of their characteristics througer contact. The Origami contributes for effective learning, enables the development of important skills for the general education of the student such as interdisciplinarity, teamwork, reasoning, concentration and others.
