Resumo: This paper aims to discuss relativism in Mathematics Education and its consequences for learning, especially when the objectivity of Mathematics is put in suspicion, considering the production of knowledge relative to each culture, society and individual. To do so, from a theoretical essay, we analyze the relation between relativism, science and Mathematical Education. Reflecting on the formation of subjects capable of understanding reality in an increasingly elaborate way, we point the school Mathematics as a socializing instance of systematized knowledge. Our analysis seeks to show that objectivity has always been present in the construction of science and in this sense we highlight the objectivity of mathematics in the philosophy of language, clarifying how it is intertwined with language, allowing an objective knowledge of the world, contributing, in our view, for the debate on the valorization of school knowledge, in particular the mathematical one, so important for the development of any society.

Para tanto, a partir de um ensaio teórico, analisamos a relação entre relativismo, ciência e Educação Matemática. Refletindo sobre a formação de sujeitos capazes de compreender a realidade de maneira cada vez mais elaborada, apontamos a Matemática escolar como instância socializadora dos conhecimentos sistematizados. Nossa análise busca evidenciar que a objetividade sempre esteve presente na construção da ciência e, nesse sentido, destacamos a objetividade da Matemática na filosofia da linguagem, esclarecendo como está entrelaçada com a linguagem, permitindo um conhecimento objetivo do mundo, contribuindo, a nosso ver, para o debate a respeito da valorização do saber escolar, em particular o matemático, tão importante para o desenvolvimento de qualquer sociedade.Editora Unimontes2018-04-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/emd/article/view/5510.24116/emd25266136v2n42018a01Educação Matemática Debate; v. 2 n. 4 (2018): jan./abr.; 9-302526-6136reponame:Educação Matemática Debateinstname:Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (UNIMONTES)instacron:UNIMONTESporhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/emd/article/view/55/4496https://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/emd/article/view/55/57https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/deed.pt_BRinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilveira, MarisaTeixeira Junior, ValdomiroSilva, Paulo2024-03-28T13:07:41Zoai:ojs2.periodicos.unimontes.br:article/55Revistahttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/emdPUBhttps://www.periodicos.unimontes.br/index.php/emdrevista.emd@unimontes.br||2526-61362526-6136opendoar:2024-03-28T13:07:41Educação Matemática Debate - Universidade Estadual de Montes Claros (UNIMONTES)false
