The study aims to analyze the formulation and resolution of problems (FRP) from a question involving the concepts of volume and capacity by high school graduates. The research is based on the Theory of Conceptual Fields, highlighting the types of situations that provide meaning to the concepts of volume and capacity (measurement, comparison, and production) and the schemes mobilized by the students in FRP. The research was conducted in a School of Marine Apprentices (EAM) located in the metropolitan region of Recife in Pernambuco, Brazil. In total, 61 students participated, distributed in three groups. Each student was asked to formulate and solve a problem based on the question: How many glasses of juice does the modern jacubeira provide more than the ancient jacubeira? The analysis criteria were guided by the identification of the types of situations, action rules, and operational invariants of the problems formulated and solved by the students. Concerning the type of activity for FRP, several students used a question different from the one proposed. Most students formed problems around measurement situations (related to the transformation of measurement units and operationalization of measures) and comparison situations.

Este artigo é fruto de uma dissertação de mestrado desenvolvida no Programa de Pós-Graduação em Ensino das Ciências (PPGEC). No presente trabalho, tomamos por objetivo analisar a formulação e resolução de problemas (FRP) a partir de uma pergunta, envolvendo os conceitos de volume e capacidade, feita por alunos egressos do Ensino Médio. Fundamentamos a pesquisa na Teoria dos Campos Conceituais (TCC), pondo em relevo os tipos de situações que dão sentido aos conceitos de volume e capacidade (medição, comparação e produção) e os esquemas mobilizados pelos alunos na FRP. A pesquisa teve como lócus uma Escola de Aprendizes-Marinheiros (EAM), localizada na região metropolitana de Recife-Pernambuco. Contamos com a participação de 61 alunos, sendo esses distribuídos em três turmas. Cada aluno foi solicitado a formular e resolver um problema a partir da pergunta: Quantos copos de suco a jacubeira moderna fornece a mais do que a jacubeira antiga? Os critérios de análise foram norteados pela identificação dos tipos de situações, regras de ação e invariantes operatórios dos problemas formulados e resolvidos pelos alunos. Sobre o tipo de atividade para FRP, destacamos que vários alunos utilizaram uma pergunta diferente da que foi proposta. A maioria dos alunos formulou problemas em torno de situações de medição (relacionadas à transformação de unidades de medida e operacionalização de medidas) e situações de comparação. Identificamos a atribuição de medidas das dimensões do objeto (jacubeira) incoerentes com a realidade, ou seja, muito grandes para esse tipo de objeto, o que revela a dificuldade dos alunos em estimar medidas de comprimento, de capacidade e de volume.
