EXPLORING GENERATIVE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AS SUPPORT FOR MATHEMATICS TEACHERS
Generative Artificial Intelligence. ChatGPT. Planning. Lesson plan.
This research project explores the potential of ChatGPT, a Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) tool, as a support for pedagogical planning in Mathematics in the final years of elementary school. With the advancement and growing popularization of GAI services, there is a need to understand how this emerging technology can be integrated into the educational context in an effective and ethical manner. The research adopts a qualitative and exploratory approach, using Prompt Engineering to generate and evaluate Mathematics lesson plans, in addition to investigating the adherence of these pedagogical proposals to the guidelines of the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC). The specific objectives include conducting a bibliographic survey on the use of GAI in mathematics education, a detailed analysis of the interaction with ChatGPT, and the evaluation and effectiveness of the generated teaching materials. The research reveals that ChatGPT does not replace the role of the teacher; it stands out as a support tool for suggesting activities, pedagogical practices, and educational games, complementing the teaching work and enriching pedagogical planning. Different versions of ChatGPT were analyzed, showing that the quality of responses may vary depending on the interaction, the continuous improvement of the tool and the clarity of the prompts. The research concludes that, when used consciously and strategically, ChatGPT can be a valuable support resource for Mathematics teachers, offering new perspectives for teaching and facilitating the creation of innovative teaching materials. This study culminates in the production of a guide of good practices for the use of ChatGPT by Mathematics teachers, providing guidelines for the effective integration of IAG in the educational process.
