Resumo: Mathematics has traditionally been blamed for being one of the preponderant factors that explains students’ dropout in universities. This assessment may seem rather violent; however, it is not so far from reality. We miss aspects related to empathy with new generations of students and a closer use of mathematics in the incorporation of new discourses. Therefore, in this communication, we discuss some aspects related to our understanding of mathematics for "non-mathematicians" in the university. Specifically, we reinterpret the idea of mathematically training critical citizens and propose the innovative design of a university mathematics subject taught at the School of Human Sciences at a Colombian university.

Parece que essa apreciação é violenta, no entanto, não está tão longe da realidade. Sentimos falta de aspectos relacionados à empatia com as novas gerações de estudantes e um uso mais próximo da matemática na incorporação de novos discursos. Portanto, nesta comunicação, discutimos alguns aspectos relacionados à nossa compreensão da matemática para "não matemáticos" na universidade. Especificamente, reinterpretamos a ideia de treinar cidadãos matematicamente críticos e propomos o design inovador de uma disciplina de matemática universitária ministrada na escola de ciências humanas de uma universidade colombiana.UMinho Editora2020-06-30T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.21814/h2d.2548eng2184-562XMendez, Rafael AlbertoSuavita, María AngélicaGauthier, Valérieinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-09-05T14:38:53Zoai:journals.uminho.pt:article/2548Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T15:13:05.156832Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
