For many students, the Mathematics is still often viewed with fear – Whether at school or preparation for the National High School Exam (Enem) or other entrance exams.
Although by many people, mathematics is present in the routine of all of us and is essential in various contexts, especially in a data oriented.
Before revising formulas or redoing exercises, it is important to seek to change the way you see the study of mathematics.
Check out 4 basic tips:
Observe mathematics in everyday
Nothing more useful than using to create connections that facilitate the assimilation of concepts. “Incorporating games, applications and practical situations, such as calculating discounts on purchases, makes learning more attractive and significant,” says Renato Shiotuqui, also a teacher at Brazilian International School.
Study with routines and processes
For the teacher of mathematics and responsible for the Nucleus of Olympic Studies at the Alphaville International School, Matheus Histauer, is important define weekly blocks of systematic review and practice, interspersing theory and exercisesso that he recommends the use of checklists and daily goals, which stimulate the sense of evolution and maintain the discipline. “Registering performance on each theme also helps to identify weaknesses and adjust the schedule dynamically,” he adds.
Understand the concepts, instead of decorating
No memorizing formulas: to investigate the “whys” guarantee autonomy to apply concepts in unprecedented situations and promote mental flexibility, essential to facing problems that escape the standard of book exercises. “Solve exercise systematically, elaborating their own examples and explaining reasoning aloud to a colleague or himself also reinforces deep understanding,” explains Histauer.
Pause
Cristine Tolizano, Mathematics Professor at Bilingual School Aubrick, says that “organized environments and”. It advises to keep the study site well lit, noise -free, and include brief moments of stretching or meditation to renew concentration. Take care of the body and mind Creates the base necessary to face long periods of problem solving with energy and focus.
