This book presents a collection of ethnomathematical studies of diverse mathematical practices in Afro-Brazilian, indigenous, rural and urban communities in Brazil. Ethnomathematics as a research program aims to investigate the interrelationships of local mathematical knowledge sources with broader universal forms of mathematics to understand ideas, procedures, and practices found in distinct cultural groups. Based on this approach, the studies brought together in this volume show how this research program is applied and practiced in a culturally diverse country such as Brazil, where African, indigenous and European cultures have generated different forms of mathematical practice. These stud...
O livro “Formação inicial e continuada de professores: políticas e desafios” reúne uma série de textos escritos por pesquisadores de diversas instituições de ensino superior – públicas e privadas, cujo objetivo é discutir a formação inicial e continuada de professores, a partir das políticas educacionais brasileiras que, por hora, representam um grande desafio para a melhoria da qualidade da educação básica. A formação inicial ocorre nos cursos de licenciatura em diversas áreas, mas, de acordo com os estudos aqui apresentados, por mais que as instituições de ensino superior vêm aperfeiçoando os currículos e os processos formativos, trata-se de um processo que exi...
This book presents, for the first time in English, the state of the art of Mathematics Education research in Brazil, a country that has the strongest community in this field in Latin America. Edited by leading researchers in the area, the volume provides the international academic community a summary of the scientific production of the thirteen working groups of the Brazilian Society of Mathematics Education (SBEM), the national scientific society that brings together researchers, teachers, students and other professionals of the area. These working groups meet every three years at the International Seminar of Mathematics Education (SIPEM) and cover the following topics: Mathematics Educatio...
Este Livro apresenta uma investigação da implantação do Currículo de Matemática em conformidade com a Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) nos anos finais do Ensino Fundamental (EF), no município de Xinguara, estado do Pará. Com a implantação da BNCC em todas as unidades da federação brasileira, torna-se evidente a necessidade de uma discussão pelos estados e municípios sobre a adoção e implantação desse documento, buscando definir os acréscimos de conteúdos, competências/habilidades. O objetivo geral foi investigar os aspectos didáticos relevantes na implantação e elaboração do Currículo de Matemática de acordo com a BNCC em Xinguara, sob a perspectiva dos profe...

Dividido em duas partes, a obra destaca na primeira reflexões fundamentais relacionadas a currículos. Apresenta abordagens teóricas e possibilidades de compreendermos currículo, destacando a constante luta de significações defendidas por diferentes grupos e atores sociais. Discute o projeto de implantação da Base Nacional Comum Curricular, e alguns sentidos que vem lhe sendo atribuídos, assim como os riscos que podem envolver uma centralização curricular. Em seguida apresenta um panorama sobre currículos em Educação Matemática, apontando perspectivas para a área e formas de ampliar avanços nas discussões sobre os processos de ensino e de aprendizagem. A segunda parte foca a Educação Matemática na Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA). Analisa momentos da história da EJA como forma de compreendermos o processo gradual de interpolações de legislações e movimentos populares que se destacaram na luta por uma escola de qualidade e inclusiva, como forma de resgatar antigas dívidas sociais. Em seguida, apresenta um mapeamento das produções publicadas em periódicos, visando contribuir para a comunidade de educadores em suas investigações sobre o tema.
This book includes 18 peer-reviewed papers from nine countries, originally presented in a shorter form at TSG 25 The Role of History of Mathematics in Mathematics Education, as part of ICME-13 during. It also features an introductory chapter, by its co-editors, on the structure and main points of the book with an outline of recent developments in exploring the role of history and epistemology in mathematics education. It serves as a valuable contribution in this domain, by making reports on recent developments in this field available to the international educational community, with a special focus on relevant research results since 2000. The 18 chapters of the book are divided into five inte...
This survey book reviews four interrelated areas: (i) the relevance of heuristics in problem-solving approaches – why they are important and what research tells us about their use; (ii) the need to characterize and foster creative problem-solving approaches – what type of heuristics helps learners devise and practice creative solutions; (iii) the importance that learners formulate and pursue their own problems; and iv) the role played by the use of both multiple-purpose and ad hoc mathematical action types of technologies in problem-solving contexts – what ways of reasoning learners construct when they rely on the use of digital technologies, and how technology and technology approaches can be reconciled.
Mathematics education research routinely receives the attention of educators, mathematicians, linguists, psychologists, anthropologists, and others. In this volume, the induction of students into mathematical meaning-making is studied through the prism of these several disciplines. What unites all such approaches to pedagogy and to the assessment of pegagogy- and to the subject matter of mathematics itself - is semiotics. Myrdene Anderson teaches at Purdue University, Adalira Saenz-Ludlow teaches at the U of North Carolina, Shea Zetlweger is former chair at Mount Union College, Ohio, Victor V. Cifarelli teaches at the U. ol North Carolina.
Models and modelling play a central role in the nature of science, in its conduct, in the accreditation and dissemination of its outcomes, as well as forming a bridge to technology. They therefore have an important place in both the formal and informal science education provision made for people of all ages. This book is a product of five years collaborative work by eighteen researchers from four countries. It addresses four key issues: the roles of models in science and their implications for science education; the place of models in curricula for major science subjects; the ways that models can be presented to, are learned about, and can be produced by, individuals; the implications of all these for research and for science teacher education. The work draws on insights from the history and philosophy of science, cognitive psychology, sociology, linguistics, and classroom research, to establish what may be done and what is done. The book will be of interest to researchers in science education and to those taking courses of advanced study throughout the world.
