Mathematics in non-mathematical practices
In the area "Mathematics in non-mathematical practices" we study how mathematical models, data visualizations and dynamic simulations can be used to solve problems in out-of-school contexts, in other disciplines (biology, engineering, social sciences), workplaces, news media, etc.
We apply a variety of theories including Activity Theory, Commognition, Social Semiotics, and Bourdieu's Social Theory. We aim at improving mathematics education encouraging student-centered, exploratory, interactive approaches to assist students become flexible, critical, collaborative and creative problem solvers.
