Meaningful learning, Neuroscience, Problem solvingAbstract
This article aims to study a possible relationship between knowledge from neuroscience and the Meaningful Learning Theory formulated by David Ausubel. The objective is to verify a possible connection between these two fields of study to facilitate the teaching and learning process of Mathematics, using problem solving as a possible path. The method used was bibliographic research and the results showed that problem solving can satisfy the conditions proposed in the Ausubelian theory for meaningful learning. Furthermore, the use of problem situations can mobilize different neural structures, thus being able to streamline the teaching of Mathematics based on significant neuroscientific knowledge. Finally, the work points to the need for further studies on the subject and deepening the connections between neuroscience and the Meaningful Learning Theory..
