Description
Summary:The research seeks to understand teachers' perceptions about the occurrence of errors in the teaching and learning process of mathematics in remote teaching. The method used is of a qualitative approach, of the exploratory descriptive type. Ten teachers of both sexes, who were available to the researcher, were invited to participate in the research, using a sampling technique called Snowball. For data collection, sociodemographic and structured questionnaires were used, shared in a Google form via virtual means. Data were analyzed by analyzing the content of the Descending Hierarchical Classification. The results allowed the inference of six categories related to the perceptions of these teachers about the challenges in remote teaching: online video calls, Google classroom, greater confidence in face-to-face classes, blended learning as an option for learning, difficulties with remote content and adaptation to teaching remote. In relation to the error in the teaching-learning of mathematics in the perception of these teachers, five categories were inferred: teaching routine exercises, remote teaching and learning process in children, adolescents and adults, greater difficulty in supporting the student in remote teaching, need for greater appreciation and investment in math classes, understanding doubts in the face of error. It was considered that the theme about the error in the teaching-learning process of mathematics in the context of remote teaching appears in a vague way, since this subject is treated as problem solving and with little focus on treating possible errors as a source of learning and not as a source of punishment.
