Resumo
A presente pesquisa teve como questão norteadora analisar os conhecimentos prévios e dificuldades apresentadas por alunos do Ensino Médio em tarefas envolvendo conceitos geométricos como figura plana e não plana, cubos e pirâmides, etc. Foram escolhidas três séries de uma escola pública do Estado de São Paulo, sendo sujeitos da pesquisa 81 alunos. Os instrumentos utilizados para a coleta de dados foram um questionário inicial para conhecimento de alguns dados dos alunos, como idade, gosto pela geometria, entre outros, e uma prova matemática avaliada numa escala de zero a dez pontos. A metodologia adotada foi a descritiva com abordagem qualitativa. A análise dos dados mostrou um desempenho muito baixo na avaliação envolvendo conceitos geométricos, sendo que a dificuldade na visualização e na representação geométrica, componentes do pensamento geométrico, constitui fatores que contribuíram para o desempenho insatisfatório dos participantes. Verificou-se, também, como apontado na literatura, um abandono do ensino da geometria espacial no Ensino Médio.
The present research had as norteadora question to analyze the previous knowledge and difficulties presented for pupils of Average Ensino in tasks beng involved geometric concepts as plain figure and not plain, cubes and pyramids, etc. had been chosen three series of a public school of the state of São Paulo, being citizens of the research 81 pupils. The instruments used for the collection of data had been an initial questionnaire for knowledge of some data of the pupils, as age, taste for Geometry, among others, and a Mathematical test evaluated in a zero scale the ten points. The adopted methodology was to the descriptive with qualitative boarding. The analysis of the data very showed to a low performance in the evaluation involving Geometric concepts, being that difficulty in visualization and the geometric representation, component of the Geometric thought, constitutes factors that had contributed for the unsatisfactory performance of the participants. It was verified, also, as pointed in literature, an abandonment of the education of space Geometry in average education.
