This paper reports a cognitive study of a qualitative character in relation to the learning of the two variable functions and partial derivative concepts in the engineering context. It defends the fact that didactic settings in context can be conducive to a logical meaningful learning for the student with sense in the future professional area. This motivated us to research what happened at cognitive levels for students in this type of didactic environment. The theoretical framework is described by the study of cognitive functioning in a mental act of learning (the process of resolving problem). The analysis reports the experience which results in the implementation of didactic setting designs with one group of engineering students. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
