Resumo

In this article we present the types of objects and processes undertaken by an ideal subject in the resolution of a visualization task related to plane symmetries. In the framework of the ontosemiotic approach to knowledge and mathematical instruction this is equivalent to elaborating the epistemic configuration associated with the resolution of that task. This configuration will be used as a reference point to analyze the cognitive configurations of a sample of 400 pre-service primary education teachers and to formulate hypotheses about potential semiotic conflicts. These configurations, epistemic and cognitive, are constructed applying the categories of primary and secondary objects proposed by the ontosemiotic approach. The research methodology entails a mix method approach with both qualitative and quantitative components. The results have shown that the students have difficulties in applying visualization skills to decompose and recompose figures, as well as in recognising symmetry as movement in unusual contexts.
