Research in Mathematical Education I

Objectives

This course is part of the educational background of general scope necessary for future teachers and aims to develop research skills in education and in their area of ​​teaching and provide moments of preparation, implementation and reflection on teaching practice in the induction of the internship work . In this direction will be presented and discussed different research methodologies, focusing particularly those that have application in teaching practice.
Particular emphasis on action research as a methodology that allows prospective teachers to investigate on their own practice is chosen. In this context it is intended to structure a first approach of research work.
Supervised Pedagogical Practice will pair with the work on this discipline.
