Potencialidades e limitações da plataforma khan academy para o ensino de probabilidade no 3º ano do ensino médio.

Abstract

The aim of Digital Technologies in school is to enhance students' learning, stimulate their interest in digital media, and collaborate with the work of the teacher, innovating and making the teaching and learning process more flexible. In particular, in Mathematics Teaching the use of technologies can collaborate with students' learning, since they believe that learning this science is the privilege of the few. The research had as a guiding problem "What are the contributions of the Khan Academy Platform for the teaching of Probability with students of the 3rd year of High School?" From this questioning we had to analyze the possibilities and limitations of the Khan Academy Platform in Teaching Mathematics of high school students. This research was carried out in a high school, located in the city of Bananeiras-PB. With 5 groups of 3rd year of High School, 45 students participated, with ages ranging from 16 to 19 years. In the course of the research we used a Blended learning methodology, since the subjects of the research studied in the morning and in the counter shift performed activities in the Khan Academy Platform, these activities were taken to the classroom for discussion, as well as the doubts about the access to Khan Academy. The students 'access was monitored, because the Platform allows the teacher to obtain feedback on students' performance and from there, to plan methodologies that can contribute to their learning. We can see in the course of this research that the use of technologies in the classroom is not so frequent, but we believe that the use of technological tools contributes significantly to the students' learning and to the work of the teacher, who can use this tool to faster results on the progress of their students' learning.
