SOUSA, Rogério Gonçalves de  y  BASTOS, Sandra Nazaré Dias. Epistemological Discourses of Affection as principles of Rationality for Science and Mathematics Education. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2011, vol.13, n.3, pp.169-184. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172011133169.

This essay aims to analyze and study the role of affection in cognitive processes from a perspective focused on appreciation of inseparable aspects of the epistemic subject, acknowledging that he develops himself and develops knowledge in various reasoning levels, including emotional ones. To support the discussion in Science and Mathematics Education, we gathered teacher reports that show that affection influenced both teaching and learning processes. From narratives and several theoretical contributions, we aimed to emphasize epistemological discourses and establish them as principles of rationality for Science and Mathematics Education, supporting the thesis of the overlap between reason and affection in the path of knowing.

Palabras clave : Affection; Epistemology; Science and Mathematics Education.
