Resumo

A abordagem de Aprendizagem Baseada em Projetos Culturais (CPBL) é um método de ensino e aprendizagem centrado na criança, baseado nas atividades e experiências culturais dos alunos. O CPBL apóia a aprendizagem ao envolver os alunos em uma investigação de um tópico em seu ambiente cultural. A metodologia etnográfica foi utilizada para a coleta de dados. Os quatro professores de matemática e trinta e dois alunos do sexto ao décimo ano participaram do estudo. Os alunos receberam um ambiente rico para explorar ideias matemáticas incorporadas em artefatos culturais observados no ambiente fora da escola. As ideias matemáticas incorporadas em artefatos culturais permitem que os alunos desenvolvam ideias matemáticas além das quatro paredes da sala de aula. Tanto professores como alunos relataram que a abordagem CPBL oferece uma oportunidade de explorar ideias matemáticas em um ambiente cultural e os ajuda a desenvolver ideias matemáticas.
