RIOS, Diogo Franco  and  SANTOS, Mélany Silva dos. Mathematics in the Preparatory Course for the Admission Exam at the Ginásio Pelotense. Ensino em Re-Vista [online]. 2021, vol.28, e025.  Epub June 29, 2023. ISSN 1983-1730.  https://doi.org/10.14393/er-v28a2021-25.

We present an analysis about the changes that occurred in the teaching of Mathematics in the preparatory course for the Ginásio Pelotense Admission Exam, called "Admission Course", which existed in the city of Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul. We presented permanences and modifications of the Mathematics contents between 1960 and 1971, based on a documental analysis of the diaries of the Admission Course and the prescriptions of the Program for the Admission Examinations (PAE), established at the national level, and the Experimental Program for Primary School in Rio Grande do Sul (EPPSRG). Among the conclusions, it is worth mentioning that the Mathematics of the Course was changing due to the educational changes, related to Primary and Secondary, which were being practiced at the time. These changes, especially in relation to the second half of the 1960s, may also be associated with the influence of Modern Mathematics, although this did not mean a complete break with the programs established in the 1950s.

Keywords : History of Mathematics Education; Secondary Education; Modern Mathematics; Curriculum; Admissions Course.
