Resumo
In this paper, the central theme is the abstraction of the exponential function
and the exponential type of interactions between gears in the LEGO®
Mindstorms NXT Kit. Through the construction of a cart using parts of this kit,
was found that it is composed of a 4-speed gearbox, which works with an
exponential rate of change. The motivation of this paper was to discover
whether it would be possible or not to abstract this function, based on
interactions between gears, that in the great majority, are associated only
with the proportionality issues and, consequently, with linear functions. With
analyzes and studies made based on materials already produced, both on
interactions between gears, and on gear shifts made of LEGO® parts, we were
able to do the construction of the proposed gearbox. For this, we use gears
reductions of spins, which in sequence was able to create a geometric
progression, which was associated with the exponential type of function. Thus,
this gear is used as an study object of a didactic sequence and of contents,
both with regard to its construction (detailed in the didactic sequence) and as
to its functioning (explored in the form of exercises). The sequence, as an
objective of assisting the teacher in teaching the exponential function is based
on the Zabala’s (1995) theory, which is based on Piaget's constructivist
conceptions (1978) on the cognitive process construction of knowledge. Based
on the choice of using gears and educational digital technologies, through
educational robotics, we bring the guidance of Saymon Papert (1985), author
of the constructionist theory. And with the positive result of this work, it was
possible to see the great mathematical arsenal existing in the interactions
between gears, which, when associated with Educational Robotics, allows to
fully work on the integral development of the students, by relating in the
execution of their activities, in a simultaneously way, such as concepts,
procedures and attitudes.
