Teaching mathematics using traditional methods in a computeriz
ed society
became a chore for the teacher , mainly because the influence of education
informatiza tion is an irreversible reality . This reality is forcing professionals to rethink
about their practice . Change in the attitude of the teacher in relation to traditional
teaching became inevitable with the arrival of the computer labs in schools .
Therefore, this paper aims to stimulate the math teacher to use educational software
t o complement the content taught , facilitating the teaching learning process and
making lessons more attractive , creating an environment conducive to educati on that
today's society demands . But because of the difficulty of the teacher to implement
this ne w technology in the school environment, this work also shows the importance
of the use of educational software for teaching mathematics, presents a proposal to
the procedures that should be adopted to contribute effectiv ely in implementing the
program , fac ilitating learning of the content taught . The proposal was based on what
Grando (2000 ) in his doctoral thesis called "Moments of the game" and this work
called "Moments of the process which is used Geogebra to show in detail the steps
that should be ado pted in software application , so that the teacher understands the
importance of the computer in the teaching learning process . But to actually verify
that the methodology was effective, the proposal was applied in the 7th grade class
and the results were p resented in tabular form. Through the results and testimonials
of the students it was concluded that the proposal is satisfactory.
