La relación entre ética y educación no es un tema nuevo, hay un interés permanente por responder a la pregunta: ¿qué presencia tiene la ética en cada sociedad? En el campo de la educación también se mantiene la pregunta ¿qué educación es necesaria para cada sociedad? Ética y educación se vinculan en los procesos transformadores de las sociedades. La pregunta que orienta la escritura de este artículo es ¿qué caracterización de ética es necesaria en el campo de la educación matemática? Se presenta inicialmente una caracterización de origen filosófica con aportes de la teoría de la argumentación, a continuación se profundiza en la relación ética-educación matemática, estableciendo un vínculo inmediato con la teoría de la objetivación, y finalmente se presentan voces de profesores y estudiantes señalando la necesidad del componente ético en el campo de la educación matemática.Approaches Necessary for Reflection about a Community Ethics in Mathematical EducationThe relationship between ethics and education is not a new issue; there is a permanent interest in answering the question: what is the presence of ethics in each society? In the field of education, the question remains: what education is necessary for each society? Ethics and education are linked in the transforming processes of societies. The question that guides the writing of this article is what characterization of ethics is necessary in the field of mathematics education? It is presented initially a characterization of philosophical origin with contributions of the theory of the argumentation, then deepens in the relation ethics-mathematical education, establishing an immediate link with the theory of the objectification, and finally presents the voices of professors and students pointing out the need for the ethical component in the field of mathematical education.Handle: http://hdl.handle.net/10481/49439Scopus record and citations

O artigo examina como o princípio pedagógico “aprender a fazer fazendo” se expressava no âmbito da educação matemática no curso Técnico em Agropecuária da Escola Agrotécnica Federal de Sertão (EAFS/RS) nos anos de 1980. Os aportes teóricos encontram-se, principalmente, nas formulações de Michel Foucault e John Dewey. O material de pesquisa é composto por entrevistas realizadas com egressos, além de cadernos, provas e trabalhos da disciplina de Matemática. O exercício analítico sobre esse material, realizado na perspectiva da análise do discurso foucaultiano e por meio da abordagem de Storytelling, possibilitou concluir que a educação matemática da disciplina de Matemática era pouco vinculada ao princípio pedagógico “aprender a fazer fazendo”, priorizando-se o uso da escrita e o formalismo. The paper examines how the “learning to make by making” pedagogical principle was present in the context of mathematical education at Federal Agrotechnical School of Sertão (EAFS/RS) in the 1980s. The theoretical framework is based mainly on the works of Michel Foucault and John Dewey. The research material is composed of interviews with egresses, as well as Mathematics notebooks, tests and schoolwork from that period. The analytical exercise concerning this material, undertaken in the perspective of foucauldian discourse analysis and by means of the Storytelling approach, demonstrated that mathematical education in Mathematical classes was hardly related to the "learning to make by making" pedagogical principle, prioritizing formalism and the use of writing.

ResumoNeste artigo são apresentadas algumas das concepções que se observam, explicitamente ou subjacentemente, no relato de pesquisas na área da educação matemática, as quais orientam seu desenvolvimento, fins e resultados. As concepções destacadas se entrelaçam com várias formas e caminhos possíveis para levantar dados e analisar o que é obtido em investigações no que se refere às situações de ensino e de aprendizagem escolar, ou, a processos formativos de diferentes naturezas e níveis. Não há hierarquização entre elas, não são necessariamente mutuamente excludentes, e, cada uma traz contribuições a serem consideradas nos limites de suas perspectivas.Palavras-chave:  Educação matemática, Metodologias de pesquisa, Concepções de pesquisa, Formação do pesquisador. AbstractIn this article, is exposed an analytic view of conceptions that we can observe in reports of research in the field of mathematical education. They guide the purpose, proceedings and results of the investigation and they interweave the ways and research means of obtaining data. This analysis is done by observing reports of empirical research on school learning or about process of teachers’ education. There are no hierarchy between then and they are not mutually exclusive. Each one brings their contribution that can be considered in their perspectives and limits.Keywords: Mathematic education, Research methodologies, Research conceptions, Researchers’ education. ResumenEn este artículo se analizan concepciones observables, directamente o no, en relatos de investigaciones científicas en el campo de la educación matemática. Esas concepciones orientan los procedimientos investigativos, los análisis de los resultados y sus fines. Ellas están entrelazadas con los caminos de búsqueda de datos y conclusiones. Las investigaciones tratadas dicen respecto a situaciones de la enseñanza y del aprendizaje en la escuela o a procesos de formación de varios tipos, mayormente, la formación de docentes. No hay jerarquía entre ellas, no son mutuamente excluyentes, y cada una aporta su contribución específica.Palabras-clave: Educación matemática; metodologías de la investigación; concepciones de investigación; formación de investigadores.

Consideramos a História da educação matemática (Hem) como um campo científico que possui como elementos constitutivos os grupos de pesquisas, as produções científicas, como teses e dissertações, as disciplinas que contribuem para a autonomia e estabilidade do próprio campo e as comunicações científicas, como os eventos e as revistas. Mobilizamos a sociologia da educação de Pierre Bourdieu como referencial teórico, principalmente na definição do conceito de campo. Dessa forma, o presente artigo tem por objetivo apresentar sócio historicamente a circulação de ideias a partir dos eventos e as revistas científicas do campo da Hem. Apresentamos o International Congress on Mathematical Education (ICME), em seguida a revista International Journal on the History of Mathematics Education (IJHME), que circulou entre os anos de 2006 e 2016. A partir da mobilização da comunidade internacional de pesquisadores que investigam a Hem, foi criado o International Conference on the History of Mathematics Education (ICHME), logo em seguida o Congresso Iberoamericano de História da Educação Matemática (CIHEM) e, no Brasil, o Encontro Nacional de Pesquisa em História da Educação Matemática (ENAPHEM). Entre todas as revistas atualmente que contribuem para a circulação de ideias elencamos a Revista UNIÓN, intitulada Historia Social de la Educación Matemática en Iberoamérica e a Revista HISTEMAT, intitulada Revista de História da Educação Matemática. Os espaços que a Hem vem ocupando contribuem para o processo de reconhecimento, legitimação, socialização e circulação de ideias do próprio campo.

This article reports the results of a literature review focused on identifying the links between mathematics education and democracy. The review is based on the analysis of a collection of manuscripts produced in different regions of the world. The analysis of these articles focuses on six aspects, namely, (1) definitions of democracy used in these texts, (2) identified links between mathematics education and democracy, (3) suggested strategies to foster a democratic competence in mathematics students (4) tensions and difficulties inherent in mathematical education for democracy, (5) the fundamental role of the teacher in the implementation of democratic education and (6) selected criticisms of mathematical education for democracy. The main contributions of this article are to provide the reader with an overview of the literature related to mathematics education and democracy, and to highlight some of the theoretical and empirical topics that are necessary to further development within this research area.

The International Congress on Mathematical Education, which convenes every four years to discuss issues in mathematics education research and practice, last met in 1988. This book is the product of the subgroup on early childhood education within the Congress, which took as its charge “to identify the issues, problems, and opportunities presented by constructivism for mathematics education in early childhood and to make recommendations for the work in this area over the next four years.” Thus the book not only contains reports on previous research, but also recommendations for future research and practice in early childhood mathematics education.

As mathematics education has become better established as a domain of scienti fic research (if not as a scientific discipline), exactly what this research is and what its results are have become less clear. The hi story of the past three International Congresses on Mathematical Education demonstrates the need for greater clarity. At the Budapest congress in 1988, in particular, there was a general feeling that mathematics educators from different parts of the world. countries, or even areas of the same country often talk past one another. There seems to be a lack of consensus on what it means to be a mathematics educator. Standards of scientific quality and the criteria for accepting a paper vary considerably among the more than 250 journals on mathematics education published throughout the world.

Ever since the results of the International Achievement Tests in Mathematics were announced, much interest has been expressed in the outstanding performance made by the Japanese students.1 The test results displayed an accomplishment that at age thirteen, and overall, was far su perior to the other countries involved. Many analyses have been made of the subject matter involved in the questions, of the type of questions, of the teachers of the students, and of the curricula of each of the countries, to either sustain or disprove popularly expressed superiority of Japanese mathematics education. This article merely reviews the existing structure of Japanese education and points to some unique features of Japanese culture that may offer a partial explanation. It is not intended in any sense to suggest that the Japanese program or its culture— which is evidently satisfying to their own people—is one that would be satisfactory for others. It is merely one of many cultures which we should corne to under stand as the world grows closer knit in its forward progress.
