La aplicación de la matemática en la carrera de arquitectura: una propuesta de enseñanza

Abstract

This article describes a pedagogical experience that was carried out with a group of students in a classroom-workshop dynamic that links Mathematics with Architecture. It is developed in the first year of the Architecture degree at the National University of Río Negro (UNRN) and in this framework a research project arises. Contents of the functions unit and differential and integral calculus were addressed with the use of the GeoGebra software in connection with the future training of our students. We are concerned and occupied that mathematical knowledge is linked in some way with the future profession of our students, so that learning is meaningful. The activities were a real challenge for them, creating an environment that motivated them to try, produce different solutions and look for different ways to validate them. The development of these activities allowed work in different representation registers: algebraic, graphic and tables with the use of the GeoGebra software. This made possible, on the one hand, the construction of mathematical knowledge under different registers, carrying out a treatment of the problem in each one of them and the conversion from one to another.
