Description

This poster focuses on the development of prospective elementary teachers’ problem-solving capacity and, particularly, on geometric problem solving. More specifically, we present some preliminary results of a research project that is being developed, in a Portuguese School of Education focusing prospective elementary teachers’ preparation in geometry and measure, one of the disciplines of their bachelor’s degree.
