Research themes include: Socioepistemological Theory of Mathematics Education. Advanced Mathematical Thinking. Social Construction of Mathematical Knowledge. Teacher Training in Mathematics. Variational Thinking and Language.
This year will dedicate the editorials of The Latin American Journal of Research in Educational Mathematics (Relime), to present three successful experiences of master's programs in Educational Mathematics, or in their equivalent version, that have managed to trascend the academic work of a postgraduate to community action with a social impact. Qualitative aspects of three cases of interest will be presented with the purpose of simulating the exchange between academic bodies. The plan is to show the Master's program in Secondary Education Mathematics Teaching (memes) of the Federal Superior Normal School of Oaxaca (ensfo), for more details consult (Vásquez, 2016). Later we will give rise to the program of the Department of Mathematics of the University of Camagüey Ignacio Agramonte Loynaz, in Cuba. We will conclude this volume with a presentation of the achievements of the master's program of the Institute of Mathematics of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, in Chile.
