Educação financeira escolar: a tomada de decisão financeira nas experiências cotidianas

Abstract

This research aims to investigate and produce a set of tasks, theoretically referenced, that stimulates students to produce their own meanings on issues involving decision-making in everyday experiences related to Financial Education. This research is part of a new strand of research in Mathematics Education called School Financial Education, whose purpose is the insertion of the subject in the Mathematics classroom. The research is theoretically based on the Semantic Field Model and the concept of School Financial Education proposed by Amarildo Melchiades da Silva and Arthur Belford Powell. The production of a set of tasks constituted a game applied virtually in a field research for two students of the 9th grade of elementary school in a private school in Juiz de Fora - Minas Gerais. The set of tasks produced, applied and evaluated will constitute the educational product for use in the Mathematics classroom for the teaching process of students in the 9th grade of elementary school.
