Technical Teaching Mathematics Integrated to Middle School: a survey of conditions for resource integration

Abstract

This paper raises integration possibilities between Mathematical and Professional Education specific course contents within the modality of Technical Teaching integrated to High School, based on a distribution analysis of Mathematical contents in the respective disciplines and the areas’ resource interactions. The study was undertaken in IFPE campus Garanhuns, specifically with the Electrotechnics technical course. The data analysis obtained from teachers’ answers to an electronic questionnaire shows potentialities for integrating technical artifacts within Mathematics contents in Mathematics classes, with some interdisciplinary proposals built from the teachers’ responses.
