Polynomials are of paramount importance to mathematics and when associated with functions modeling various phenomena of our day to day. This issue is addressed for the rst time at 8 years of elementary school, but students come to high school and college with various dificulties in learning it. These difi culties occur for many reasons, the main one being the aversion that students have the math classes and for that reason this work has as one of its objectives the use of the history of mathematics as a teaching support for teaching and polynomials learning. The other goal is to develop an educational support material for use in the classroom. To verify the e ectiveness of the use of the history of mathematics as a teaching resource in polynomials teaching a survey was conducted with students of the 1st series of technical course in informatics for integrated internet to high school the IFCE-Campus Crato, applying the following methodology: Application a test, which was called test 1, to check students' di culties in resolving issues surrounding the concept of polynomials, then held a workshop for polynomials study using the history of mathematics as a didactic support and to nish we applied a second test (test 2) to see if there was some progress in student learning.
