Representações semióticas e dinâmicas: um estudo sobre os percursos de estudantes no desenvolvimento intuitivo do conceito de limites

Abstract

This article is the result of several discussions held by the authors over a period of about two years, and was born of the perceptions of the same on the potential of the use of Information and Communication Technologies in Education, specifically GeoGebra in the development of mathematical concepts. Having a theoretical foundation Theory of Semiotics Representation Registers, developed by Raymond Duval (2009, 2011, 2013), the objective is hereby analyze the influence of so-called dynamic representations of the paths of students in the intuitive concept development limits. Thus, a qualitative research was developed, supported by extensive literature review and supported with data from case study. It was concluded covering some confluences the routes taken by students and their implications, as the constant performing conversions between records and the need for readjustment of the "times" of each task. As it is proposed that a brief description of the representations Semiotic and Dynamics.
