Abstract

The main aim of this paper was to identify which learning theories base the teaching acts
and are also referred to the Calculus I subject. Therefore, a lift was made about the Brazilian academic
production released in the Brazilian Congress of Engineering Education during 2010-2017. Thus,
through a qualitative bibliographic research, 23 papers were selected to constitute this final investigation
portfolio. Most results, was possible to notice, are of empirical nature (n=15), with exclusively cognitivist
approach (n=17), in which Vygotsky was the most mentioned theorist (n=12), followed by Piaget (n=9)
and Ausubel (n=5). Furthermore, there was a balance in the use of the works related to the bibliographic
references specially in three productions: Pedagogy of Autonomy (FREIRE, 1996) Thought and Language
(VYGOTSKY, 1989) and Mind in Society: The Development of Higher Psychological Processes (VYGOTSKY, 1998). Finally, the results suggest the predominance of papers without proper theoretical basis (n=13) or
partially based (n=6), according to the criteria established in this research.
