Uso do chatbot como suporte educacional no ensino e aprendizagem da matemática: um estudo de caso da disciplina de funções de variáveis reais

Abstract

The increasing popularity of chatbots, driven by the continuous advancement of Machine Learning technologies and algorithms, has inspired the investigation and development of an intelligent chatbot designed for the study of the discipline of Functions of Real Variables. This work proposes the integration of artificial intelligence techniques and pedagogical approaches, with the support of the course instructor, to improve student performance, stimulate interest in mathematics, and promote active participation in the learning process. The implementation of this proposal aims to contribute to the reduction of failure and dropout rates in the Functions of Real Variables course within the Mathematics Teaching Program at IFBA - Eunápolis Campus. Additionally, it seeks to enhance student achievement, improve educational processes, and serve as a foundation for future research or related projects. The use of chatbots aims to enrich the educational environment by providing personalized support to students. Furthermore, the importance of ethical considerations such as transparency, fairness, accountability, and data protection in the use of the chatbot is emphasized, ensuring that technological innovation aligns with educational demands and student rights.
