Livro dinâmico interativo para aprendizado de seções cônicas e suas propriedades de reflexão

Abstract

This work focuses on the study of conics, especially their reflection properties. The aim was to create a dynamic, interactive, and free book on the GeoGebra platform for high school students and teachers, using various semiotic representations to make the presentation of the content interactive and investigative, and to provide mathematical support material for the teacher. To build the book, the methodology of mathematical investigation, games, and history of science was used. Interdisciplinarily, the book addresses the Solar System, the Universe, conics and their reflection properties, and proposes the construction of a telescope project using the GeoGebra platform. Although the proposed didactic sequence has not been applied in the classroom, it is believed that the developed material enhances the teaching and learning process of the mathematical content in question.
