Desenvolvimento de atividades pedagógicas no contexto da matemática financeira pautadas na resolução de problemas e implementação no $AE-MAFIN

Abstract

Financial behavior and financial skills are primarily responsible for the emergence of debt. In this context, attention to the study and teaching of Financial Mathematics (MF) in its different aspects became more present. With technological advances, one of the most favored service sectors was education. This represents positive effects in the teaching-learning process since the insertion of digital tools facilitates the understanding of the theoretical concept and its application in everyday situations. That said, the objective of this research is to develop and implement pedagogical activities, based on the teaching-learning-assessment methodology through problem solving (MEAA-RP) in the open access web tool called $AE-MAFIN (Teaching Support System of Financial Mathematics) (TRENTIN et al., 2022), so that it is technological support in helping high school students and teachers to understand fundamental concepts and applications of everyday situations associated with the teaching-learning process of MF. To support the development of activities, teaching strategies and official documents that guide and provide a basis for teaching this knowledge were sought in the literature. The instrument used was a literature review on the teaching-learning processes for MF and a systematic literature review on educational software to support the teaching of MF. The results of the bibliographic review indicate that different teaching methodologies facilitate the teaching of MF, and among the most cited are those that include technologies combined with investigative activities and problem solving. The main results of the systematic literature review indicate that there are few exclusive software for teaching MF, or that include all the necessary resources. Based on these results and the analysis of official documents that regulate Brazilian education, a script was developed to guide teaching work called: Teaching-Learning-Assessment Methodology through Problem Solving for Financial Mathematics (MEAA-RP-MF) . In this way, the pedagogical activities were implemented in $AE-MAFIN, and serve as a possibility for teachers and students to access the intended MF contents.
