DIFFERENTIAL AND INTEGRAL CALCULUS AND HIGH SCHOOL MATHEMATICS

ABSTRACT

In this text, we investigated, historically, the knowledge present in the differential and integral calculus course of the mathematics course at the Universidade Federal da Bahia’s Instituto de Matemática, from 1968 to 1978. The research sought to answer the following question: ‘What relationships were established between the differential and integral calculus course and the High School mathematics?’ For that, we used the current literature, of a cultural history modus operandi and historical sources. Thus, appropriating the debate of a history of education about professional teaching knowledge, we consider that the knowledge for the differential and integral calculus course was not thought and organized for the specific practice of teaching in the classroom.
