Modelagem matemática e as controvérsias na geração da energia solar fotovoltaica

Abstract

The present research aims to track the controversies surrounding the generation of photovoltaic solar energy associated with Mathematical Modeling in continuing education. From this, it is considered that Mathematical Modeling, despite being in the educational scenario for many years, is still something to be discussed by the community and managed in the classroom, taking it as a socio-technical network, based on studies of Theory Actor-Network (TAR). Therefore, the question arises: what effects will occur with the generation of photovoltaic solar energy? The research is empirical, with a qualitative aspect, in the post-human paradigm. It takes as a reference the principle of generalized symmetry, agnosticism and free association proposed by Bruno Latour, through observation. It initially seeks to organize a literature review regarding the topics in order to plan continued training for teachers who teach mathematics. The extension course was organized within the scope of the Collaborative Group in Mathematics and Education at the State University of Feira de Santana (GCMEduc/Uefs) lasting 30 hours, focusing on solar energy. The information collection instrument was the observation diary. The expected results for this investigation are the linking of themes to training, aimed at the exercise of interdisciplinary actions, through relationships and associations between humans and nonhumans, managing the socio-technical network, leading them to the construction of concepts and models mathematicians. Finally, data analysis compares the results with the theoretical framework studied, drawing conclusions and making contributions and suggestions.
