WEINGARTEN, Tiago y VECCHIA, Rodrigo Dalla. Problem, meaning and significance: the multiplicity in Mathematical Modeling. Ciência educ. [online]. 2017, vol.23, n.1, pp.219-235. ISSN 1980-850X. https://doi.org/10.1590/1516-731320170010013.
This article aims to discuss the multitude of possibilities for problem determination related to mathematical modeling, through the interest of students in problematic investigations. In our context, we seek to understand aspects related to the intertwining of problem, meaning and significance represented by propositions. The research involved problems coming from the context of everyday students enrolled in the courses of Operations Research I and II of the course of production engineering at a university in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The methodological approach was qualitative. The main result we highlight is the role of proposer of the problem and the influence of sense as guiding the process of determining the opposite problem to potential multiplicities of referrals made by conceptual meanings.
