This research was designed and conducted in the context of Calculus I classroom, curricular component of Degree in Mathematics of UNEB, Campus IX. It deals with meaningful learning and the registers of semiotic representation of Calculus content, seeking to broaden the knowledge on the learning and is aimed at education improving. In this sense, has as guideline the question - What contributions the use of transformations of semiotic representations bring to the assimilation process of Calculus concepts? Thus, with the purpose of going deeper on teaching this curriculum component on the meaningful perspective of learning and specifically about issues of oblivion assimilation (forgetfulness) of Derivative concepts, we established as objective the assimilation study which involves the acquisition and retention of the meaning concepts in the learning process, the formation levels of concepts and the assessment of the contributions of semiotic representation transformation for learning on Calculus contents. The research was developed in a qualitative theoretical-methodological approach, taking as a reference the theories of Meaningful Learning, Assimilation, the Conceptual Maps and Semiotics Representation Registers. Constituted in subjects in this study 15 students of Calculus I, in 2013 second term, who participated in the realization of six tests of Calculus contents and the development of conceptual maps corresponding to these contents. The results show that students find themselves in the process of formation of Derivative concepts, showing a learning of contents by receiving and showed forgetfulness. This represents the oblivion assimilation in complementary tests that evaluated their knowledge of Calculus. The tests results mainly confirm the hypothesis that the transformations of semiotic representation, as treatment and conversion, contribute to the process of meaningful learning of Calculus contents
