THE USE OF TECHNOLOGY IN THE MATHEMATICAL PRACTICES OF THE MONTESSORI METHOD

Abstract

The present work is an experimental, comparative study, based on two strands of teaching and learning in Early Childhood Education. Result of experiments and comparative analysis of this experience report, of good practices in the classroom. The first strand was carried out based on the preparation and elaboration of pedagogical activities with children from Kindergarten II in the standards of the Montessori Method, addressing the fundamental concepts of Geometric Mathematics. Later, the implementation was carried out using technological equipment (tablets) to carry out the same lesson plan, making the adaptation through the electronic device. The different behaviors, execution times of the activities, integration and behavior among the students and the degree of assimilation by recognition of visual and tactile patterns were studied and related.
