This book contains a selection of papers on the analysis of educational issues and the assessment of instructional innovations in Latin America. The papers report studies undertaken for thesis requirements in a master's degree program in science and mathematics education at the University of Campinas between 1975 and 1984. An explanation of the context and goals of the program is provided by D'Ambrósio, who supervised several of the candidates. In this review I focus on the papers that deal with the learning and teaching of mathematics and with the training of mathematics teachers.

ResumenLa profesionalización docente en la modalidad online se ha venido conformando como una oportunidad de formación para los profesores de matemáticas en servicio. El Programa de Matemática Educativa del Instituto Politécnico Nacional de México se fundó en el año 2000 y desde entonces ha ofrecido un dispositivo de formación a los profesores de diversas regiones de México y de toda Latinoamérica. Uno de los objetivos principales de este programa es poner a disposición de los profesores herramientas teóricas y metodológicas producidas en la disciplina de la Educación Matemática para regular e innovar su práctica docente. Es así como desde el año 2013 hasta la fecha hemos venido diseñando e impartiendo cursos basados en la metodología REI-FP (Sierra 2013 y Ruiz-Olarría 2015). En esta comunicación se analizan elementos de última edición con el objetivo de mostrar “aciertos” y desafíos, reconociendo las particularidades de la modalidad online y de los dispositivos multimedia.Palabras-clave: profesionalización docente, modalidad online, Recorridos de Estudios y de Investigación.AbstractTeaching professionalization in online mode has become a training opportunity for in-service mathematics teachers.

AbstractUsing interviews with former militants and previously unpublished documents, this article traces the genesis and internal dynamics of the Ejército Revolucionario del Pueblo (People's Revolutionary Army, ERP) in El Salvador during the early years of its existence (1970–6). This period was marked by the inability of the ERP to maintain internal coherence or any consensus on revolutionary strategy, which led to a series of splits and internal fights over control of the organisation. The evidence marshalled in this case study sheds new light on the origins of the armed Salvadorean Left and thus contributes to a wider understanding of the processes of formation and internal dynamics of armed left-wing groups that emerged from the 1960s onwards in Latin America.
