APPROXIMATION OF THE HISTORY OF MATHEMATICS PRESENT IN TEXTBOOKS WITH TRADITIONAL AND UPDATED HISTORIOGRAPHICAL WRITING

Abstract

Tradução do resumo para o Inglês. The history of mathematics as a field of scientific investigation has made possible through observation and analysis in treaties and / or works that carry in their content and context a range of information to the production of some historiographical narratives, of which they are sometimes listed and / or some of its implications for teaching. This fact has occurred from the assumption that the incorporation of elements of the story into room may possibly provide subsidies to the teaching and learning process. Given this, and through proximity to basic education, especially with secondary education, this study was developed in an attempt to identify the approximation of the writings based on the history of mathematics present in high school textbooks with the traditional and updated historiographic aspect. From this perspective, the research carried out was qualitative documentary with a bibliographical contribution. It was mentioned in this study that the texts, in which information of the story are elucidated, have characteristics that correspond to the traditional historiographic aspect, in none of the allusions made history was it possible to observe a domain of characteristics that indicated it as close to a writing of history in the molds of the updated slope.
