Descrição
Resumo:This research focuses on the area of History of Mathematics, more precisely on Medieval Islamic Mathematics, and on the support that Digital Technologies of Information and Communication can provide to the understanding of this History, via Mathematical Investigation in favor of Mathematics teaching. This work is justified due to the Islamic contribution to the understanding of the paths taken by Mathematics, as well as its influence on the development of Western Mathematics. Thus, this work aims to promote reflections on the teaching of mathematics from a historical text and its author in a proposed alliance between History of Mathematics, Digital Technologies of Information and Communication and Mathematical Investigation. To this end, we followed the assumptions of qualitative research of the bibliographical type, in the first phase, in which the analysis of the document object of study was made in order to elaborate an educational product applied in the second phase of the research with elements of action research. For the construction of this proposal, the object of investigation is the Islamic scholar of the 9th century Thabit ibn Qurra and his scientific production, besides the visualization of the whole context that emerges from the analyzed document of Thabit, in which he presents an answer, in the form of a letter to a friend who was dissatisfied with the Pythagorean Theorem applied only to isosceles right triangles, called in the letter as Socratic proof, in this direction Thabit presents and enunciates rhetorically the Generalization of the Pythagorean Theorem applied to any triangles. Given these data, we produced a historiographical investigation that culminates in the construction of an Educational Product, with the objective of making this alliance between History of Mathematics and Digital Technologies effective, applied in an extension course, open to undergraduate students of Mathematics and Mathematics Teachers.
