MATEMÁTICAS EN EL AULA, UN ESTUDIO HISTÓRICO ICONOGRÁFICO

MATHÉMATIQUES EN CLASSE, UNE ÉTUDE HISTORIQUE ICONOGRAPHIQUE

Abstract

Historically studying representations of math-centered classrooms shows us arrangements revealing underlying teaching methodologies, learning theories, and technological innovations. This iconographic study draws on images in textbooks, magazines or collectors' collections from medieval times to the mid-twentieth century. Using an interpretative paradigm, involving historical and documentary research, we look for the perspectives of teaching and learning mathematics.

Keywords:
