Resumen
AVILA, Alicia. Research in Mathematics Education in México: Looking at 40 Years of Work. Educ. mat. [online]. 2016, vol.28, n.3, pp.31-60. Epub 08-Abr-2022. ISSN 2448-8089. https://doi.org/10.24844/em2803.02.
In México, research in the domain of mathematics education emerged in the 1970's. It focused mainly on the cognitive processes of students, and on the history of mathematical concepts taught in higher education. Over the years, with the incorporation of new methodological tools, the focus shifted and diversified. The current state of research is the result of a path with changes and expansions in both our conceptions of objects and subjects of study, as well as in the theories and methodologies we use. Based in a review of the work developed in México, I discuss the evolution of research in mathematics education: concerns, goals, methodologies and tasks to be performed. I hope that the experiences of the Mexican community, presented from the author's interpretation, are also useful to researchers from other countries to look at their own doing.
