This paper reports a research about the influences of previous ideas and social interaction in learning of function concept carried out with 8th grade students of a public school. Comparing moments of individual work with interactions situations we observed that the circumstances where interactions occurs, a greater comprehension of concept and how it enables abstraction and generalization was made possible whereas this did not occur in the situation where individual work was carried out.

Keywords : Learning; Previous Ideas; Social Interaction; Function Concept.
