Dissertação (Mestrado Profissional em Matemática em Rede Nacional) - Universidade Federal de Goiás, Catalão, 2014.http://repositorio.ufcat.edu.br/tede/handle/tede/3944This work aims to propose a different approach for teaching elementary functions in high school context, worrying about concepts understanding, definitions elementary functions characterizations. The didactic-pedagogic proposal presents a mathematical modeling from different regarding daily themes simulators from internet, which encourage students “to see”, hidden functions, and improve learning and teaching. In order to do math more interesting for student, it‟s necessary to experience the practical applications, simulating real nature situations and confronting results with theoretical calculations, to do sure those concepts and functions definitions have become a solid knowledge.application/pdfAcesso AbertoEnsino básico da matemáticaFunção afimFunção quadráticaAplicações financeirasBasic mathematics teachingAffine functionQuadratic functionFinancial investmentsCIENCIAS EXATAS E DA TERRA::MATEMATICADissertação
