METHODOLOGICAL ALTERNATIVE FOR TEACHING THE SOLUTION OF QUADRATIC EQUATIONS WITH ONE UNKNOWN

Abstract

This work arises from the identification of shortcomings in the process of teaching and learning Quadratic Equations, especially regarding the mastery of traditional solving methods by the agents of the teaching and learning process, namely teachers, students, and the entire observed community. Considering the current demands of education, characterized by new pedagogical challenges, a descriptive investigation was developed with the aim of presenting to all participants an alternative methodological technique for handling the resolution of Quadratic Equations with one unknown. The central problem is based on the limitation of diversified strategies that facilitate the understanding and application of this mathematical content. The presented work aims to offer the agents of teaching and learning a new problem-solving approach, allowing them greater autonomy in choosing the method that best suits them, in addition to contributing to the. Improvement of the teaching and learning process. The study is also based on previous works that address methods of solving and teaching Quadratic Equations, reinforcing the need for methodological innovation in the educational context.
