Descrição
Resumo:The main objective of this article is to introduce concepts and theories for the discussion regarding social, cultural, and political influences for pedagogical practice of the teachers. The acquisition of mathematical knowledge in classrooms is related to the students’ sociocultural experiences in the environment they live, thus, it is important to study educational theories that develop mathematical knowledge in order to help students to recognize the importance of their own culture in the development of this knowledge. In this regard, theories of Culturally Relevant Pedagogy and Funds of Knowledge are presented in this article because they use knowledge originating in different cultural contexts. Thus, these methodological approaches use students’ cultural background in order to develop curricular activities that insert and problematize daily practices in the process of teaching and learning mathematics.
