SILVA, Vantielen da Silva  and  BURAK, Dionísio. Mathematical Modeling in the initial training of pedagogues: a path to redefine the teaching of Mathematics. Práxis Educativa [online]. 2020, vol.15, e2015113.  Epub June 04, 2020. ISSN 1809-4309.  https://doi.org/10.5212/praxeduc.v.15.15113.043.

The presence of Mathematical Modeling in the initial training of pedagogues is justified by the need to improve the training of these educators so that they can promote a quality and meaningful mathematical education for children. This work, with this focus, is part of a thesis that had as research subjects students from the Pedagogy course of a public university in the state of Paraná who experienced formative moments mediated by Modeling as a teaching methodology from the perspective of Mathematics Education. The research, under a phenomenological attitude, sought understandings for the following question: What is shown in the speeches of students about Mathematical Modeling in the initial training of pedagogues? From it, it was possible to identify that the majority of the students had an aversion and feared their performance in the area. However, they found in Modeling a way to reframe the teaching and the concepts they had in relation to Mathematics.
