LEARNING MATHEMATICS WITH ADULT LEARNERS: DRAWING FROM PARENTS' PERSPECTIVE

Resumen

En este artículo exploramos, a través de una serie de talleres con familiares, aspectos relacionados con la relación entre las matemáticas de la vida cotidiana y las matemáticas que se explican en la escuela, en el ámbito de la educación de personas adultas. Las personas participantes fueron animadas a reflexionar desde su perspectiva de la enseñanza y aprendizaje de las matemáticas a través de diferentes actividades en los talleres. Todas las sesiones fueron gravadas en video. Nuestro análisis de múltiples episodios revela tres aspectos: contextualización, transferencia del conocimiento matemático y creación de sentido. Utilizamos tres viñetas para ilustrar estos tres aspectos. Las implicaciones de nuestro estudio para la educación de personas adultas se centran en las matemáticas como prácticas situadas producidas como consecuencia de la interacción entre las personas adultas que están aprendiendo en espacios igualitarios.
