¿How to address educational research in the basic sciences subject matter? A proposal based on mathematics and biographies
This theoretical, descriptive and qualitative research encompasses a review of the biography gender and, in the field of basic sciences, a study on the development of research in math teaching. Based on that, the aim is to deploy a frame proposal, for the first terms in undergraduate studies, resulting in an educational research environment, which besides allowing students to establish a link between the history of sciences and learning, will bring them closer to the varied sources of information and the use of tools; both for the targeted gathering of such an information and for preparing and interpreting reading reports.
Educational research is considered to be a feature of higher education, and we are proposing to focus in the targeted processes delivered throughout undergraduate studies, during the first semesters, to educate novel researchers in the mastering of some knowledge, skills and abilities, that will be further required, when the student will enter in a research breeding ground or will have to present his/her undergraduate
proposal/project.
