Análise de dissertações de mestrado profissional sobre o uso de smartphones em aulas de matemática com auxílio do software Atlas.ti

Abstract

The main objective of this work was to identify the ways covered by the Brazilian researches in stricto sensu postgraduate programs, but specifically, professional masters courses, on the use of smartphones in the context of math classes. These devices are present in the daily life of most of the students, resulting the insertion of them in the educational context can be viable. In this sense, we performed a systematic review. We used in our search the Bank of Thesis and Dissertations of brazilian postgraduate authority Capes. After some exclusions, 15 dissertations were selected for investigation. We use Atlas.ti software as support and also noticed that a large percentage of texts analyzed brings as resource for the use of smartphones different applications and also comment on the possibilities of using these devices in math classes. After the investigation process, we had the possibility to understand part of the Brazilian research scenario regarding math classes associated with the use of smartphones. We noticed that there are some frontiers, which can be investigated by different researchers, about the use of these devices within educational institutions.
