Abstract
This contribution aims to communicate an experience about some observations of
how high school teachers discussed mathematical notions by using the NetLogo
Software. These subjects followed a modified Slime Molds model’s parameters and
foster a discussion about notions, concepts and topics that intrinsically appear in
the dynamics, and promote a way of mathematical thinking. Participants also
achieved their prior mathematical knowledge and its evolution. These
decentralized dynamics can be found in a wide range of phenomena, such as
epidemic spread, public transport processes, ecological interactions, and
economical interchanges.
