Resumo

A adoção de diferentes modalidades de ensino para manter a aprendizagem da matemática foi impulsionada pela pandemia de COVID-19. Para investigar as disparidades no desempenho em matemática entre aulas online, híbridas e presenciais, bem como as dificuldades de aprendizagem e as estratégias de ensino dos professores, este estudo utilizou uma metodologia mista explicativa sequencial que integrou análises quantitativas e qualitativas. As notas oficiais de três disciplinas de matemática cursadas pelo mesmo grupo de 44 alunos de Bacharelado em Ciência da Computação ao longo de três semestres serviram como dados quantitativos. Os resultados do teste de Friedman com teste post hoc revelaram que o desempenho variou significativamente entre as modalidades, com as aulas presenciais apresentando os melhores resultados. A fase qualitativa revelou problemas recorrentes, como disponibilidade irregular de internet, uso restrito de dispositivos e dificuldade de adaptação a diferentes horários de aula. Os professores de matemática abordaram esses problemas com procedimentos flexíveis de entrega de trabalhos, recursos digitais e gravações de aulas. O estudo concluiu que, embora uma variedade de modalidades possa aprimorar a aprendizagem da matemática, o ensino presencial ainda é o mais eficaz, pois permite uma interação mais completa e feedback instantâneo. Essa conclusão é corroborada pelos referenciais da Comunidade de Investigação e da Aprendizagem Construtivista. Os resultados recomendam a criação de ferramentas comprovadas para mensurar as dificuldades dos alunos e relacioná-las ao desempenho acadêmico, além de fornecer ideias para a criação de ambientes de aprendizagem adaptáveis.
