Abstract

This article is the result of a thesis and aimed to analyze the results constructed on speed through an investigative task associated with metacognitive questions. The pedagogical intervention occurred in the Calculus I discipline of a Mathematics undergraduate class at a university in the interior of the state of Amazonas. The data were produced through the application of investigative tasks combined with metacognitive questions and recorded in notebooks and also in voice recordings. A qualitative approach was adopted and the collected data were analyzed through qualitative descriptive analysis. It was possible to verify that the application of the investigative task associated with metacognition contributed to the students’ learning, as they constructed meanings regarding speed related to the concept of derivative.
