Desenvolvimento de uma aplicação web para auxiliar no ensino da Matemática para alunos do Ensino Fundamental

Abstract

This work aims to expose the development of a web application, aimed at training arithmetic related concepts in Basic Education students. The system allows the user to solve a set of problems, divided in themes and subthemes, according to the rules stablished by the Brazilian Math Olympics of Public Schools. The application is also implemented with gamification concepts, aiming at improving the motivation and engagement of the user. The problems inserted within the system were extracted from public databases and the authors developed a method to classify its properties, in order to create an algorithm to generate the variables of the problem. This guarantees that a user can solve the same problem, repeatedly, without repeating the same values, allowing a reflection about the problems' logic rather than the solution.
