GOMES, Maria de Fátima Cardoso and ARAUJO, Denise Alves. Graduate Program in Education: The Dialetic of Theory and Method. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.68, pp.441-463. Epub Jan 21, 2020. ISSN 2238-2097. https://doi.org/10.29286/rep.v28i68.8401.
This article discusses the relationship between the Cultural-Historical Theory and the Ethnography in Education, theoretical and methodological assumptions for research in the classroom. The dialectic between theory and method is presented based on research conducted in the Youth and Adult Education classroom, in Belo Horizonte, in 2015. The events analyzed show how the teacher and the students of the researched groups produced senses to mathematical concepts. The results revealed social cognition situated as something that does not occur within the minds of people, but is constituted in their experiences, and mediated by schooling.
