“Árvore Heurística”: um jogo inteligente lógico-matemático metacognitivo

Abstract

The present work aimed at the construction of an instrument to measure the skills related to the construction of the number. The applied methodology was the Rational Unified Process (RUP), used in the development of teaching systems (Marques et al, 2015). The RUP processes were abbreviated so that the steps consisted of 1) Theoretical basis: Respective bibliographic survey supporting the decision of the scope of observation of the instrument, 2) Interactional Design: It concerns the planning and projection of the physical characteristics of the game and 3) theoretical consolidation: It consists in the construction of the sieves for measuring the play. The course of the action resulted in the Game Tree Heuristic (JOAH) able to measure the prenumerical ability of classification. The observation of the classification skill through the instrument provides for the procedures for collecting spontaneous conduct in the game and the imitation conduct in the presence of the model; both tasks subsequently paired with the psychogenetic sieve of skill development for the tracing of the real and proximal development zones of the player. As for the limitations of the work, it is emphasized that, although provided for in the method, the experimentation of the instrument with a target audience could not be carried out. As this is an extremely important stage for specific changes in the game's affordance and measurement sieves, it is worth pointing out the experimentation stage in future works. The reading of the contents related to the genesis and evolution of the number in the child in this work, revealed a minimal fraction of the extensive mathematical learning process. In view of this breadth, the choice of a pre-numerical skill for the development of the instrument is justified in the importance of the consolidation of the basic mathematical principles for the success in the later arithmetic understanding (Rizzo, 1997; Souza, 2015).
