SOUZA, Deise Maria Xavier de Barros and SILVA, Marcio Antonio. PEDAGOGIC DEVICE OF THE MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM-TOY MARKED BY GENDER DIMENSION IN THE PRODUCTION OF SUBJECTIVITIES. Rev. Reflex [online]. 2018, vol.26, n.2, pp.149-164. Epub Sep 16, 2019. ISSN 1982-9949. https://doi.org/10.17058/rea.v26i2.11747.
The article discusses images of mathematics textbooks of the primary grade used for the production and the standardization of a curriculum-toy, which may indicate some kind of child-toy interaction. In a contemporary frame through of Michel Foucault’s thought and contributions of cultural studies, curriculum of mathematics in the production of unified subjectivity of gender socially constructed patterns in relations conflict between knowledge, culture and power is questioned. It is argued that, amid the movement of scientific theories of mathematical knowledge, curriculum-toy produces multiple gestures: a cultural pedagogy that masks the production of subjectivities in childhood; a practice of differentiation in the genres, such as object representations to secure identities and regulate the conduct of some other; and, a neoliberal strategy to regulate a pedagogical device in the curriculum.
