Abstract

MARTINS, Maria Ednéia  and  GOMES, Letícia Nogueira. Opinions of Documenta Magazine: Mathematics teacher training courses in Brazil (1962 to 1979) in focus. Ensino em Re-Vista [online]. 2021, vol.28, e031.  Epub June 29, 2023. ISSN 1983-1730.  https://doi.org/10.14393/er-v28a2021-31.

This article presents an analysis of requests for authorization, conversion and/or recognition of courses that trained mathematics teachers in Brazil, between 1962 and 1979. These requests were made by federal or private public institutions and published in Documenta Magazine. This Magazine was published monthly, between 1962 and 2006, by the Federal Council of Education (CFE). This analysis is an excerpt from the research by Gomes (2019), which is part of the wide-ranging project “Mapping the training and performance of mathematics teachers in Brazil”, from Oral History and Mathematical Education Group, Ghoem. In order to analyze these opinions Gomes (2019) mobilized the reference of Depth Hermeneutics, proposed by John. B. Thompson. So, we bring to the academic debate, declared intentions to train teachers, justifications of the counselors, insertions of geographic regions in the mapping and courses in their intention to be, even though many of them have not been created, this being our main contribution to the History of Education Mathematics.

Keywords : History of Mathematics Education; Depth Hermeneutics; Federal Council of Education.
