GARCIA-OLIVEROS, Gloria; NAVARRETE-SERRATO, Eileen  e  SAMBONI-TRUJILLO, Tatiana. Democratic Values in Math Learning Scenarios: Links between Diversity and Youth Culture. Rev. Fac. Cienc. Tecnol. [online]. 2018, n.43, pp.207-221. ISSN 0121-3814.

In this paper we explore and develop the relationship between math education, democracy and diversity in the possibilities raised by the decentralization of the math syllabus, as it enables a culture in the classroom where cultural difference is a constitutive element based on the recognition of multiple ways of legitimizing teenagers' relationships with math. We introduce the learning scenarios as a framework that guarantees that, during class activities, students build different groups and share different cultures around a variety of mathematical skills, while the role that each student plays in those groups is related to the construction of identity by participating in the activity. The data was taken from two final dissertations from the Master in Math Education written between 2013 and 2015 at Universidad Pedagógica Nacional (Colombia). The first thesis presents the learning scenario "Don't turn your back on your back" and highlights that it is possible, in math class, to approach collective actions among students. The second thesis presents the learning scenario "How much water do we use?" and shows the possibilities and limitations in the assembly of learning scenarios to address and develop collective actions and to engage in deliberative communication processes. To conclude, we present some questions about the devices of closure and control of diversity created by the specific field of mathematical knowledge as the homogenizing and inclusive ideal of math education. We analyze the potential of a widening of cultural practices as constitution of spaces to make cultural diversity visible in the classroom with an "undisciplined" approach (outside the disciplines) because it opens school math in bridging gaps between youth culture and class culture.
