The possible relationships between the foregrounds of Obmep medalists and their mathematics learning
Palavras-chave:
Mathematics, Foreground, ObmepResumo
This article presents reflections from a study that addressed the foregrounds of medal-winning students at the Brazilian Mathematics Olympiad of Public Schools (Obmep) in the Piauí municipality of Cocal dos Alves. The research aimed to identify the reasons that motivated students to want to learn Mathematics. It was exploratory and qualitative, with an emphasis on analyzing the case in that municipality. Data production took place through semi-structured interviews. To interpret them, we used thematic analysis. The reflections suggested that students would be motivated to learn mathematics because of what they want for the future and the changes in their lives that could be achieved. They were hopeful and revealed that they were aware that their dreams could be achieved. Furthermore, their positive perceptions of their aspirations were influenced by contact with people who had been in similar situations, as well as support from their teachers.
