Hi everyone!
My name is Lorena Haase, I live in São Paulo. I am a current Mathematics student at UFABC (Federal University of ABC), in Santo André, São Paulo, Brazil. In 2019, I graduated in Science and Technology and now I will graduate in Aug/2021 with a teaching degree.
I'm now in my way to become a Waldorf math teacher, for students between 10 and 14 years old.
I got interested in this course mainly because in math education we often discuss about the content we will teach but very little is dedicated to pedagogy, how teacher and students can work together and the proximity between academic math and scholar math. Is not only about the learning process, but how to make it part of math education's field. I do not expect this course gives me the relations I'm looking for, but the tools to develop it myself.
I've seen very little of Freire's work during my graduation. All that I've learned was during a free course called "Arts and Education" given by a philosophy teacher, where he mentioned a lot about the book "Pedagogia do Oprimido", even though I've never read it.
