HIGUITA, Carolina; TASCON, Abelardo y JARAMILLO, Diana. Oral History in the Memories of Cultural Practices to Think about the Future of Math Education among Indigenous People. Rev. Fac. Cienc. Tecnol. [online]. 2017, n.42, pp.79-94. ISSN 0121-3814.
This paper presents the research process titled "The mobilization of cultural objects from the memories of the practice of construction of traditional Embera Chamí houses: possibilities to think about the future of math education among indigenous people", and it aims to show the tensions and challenges involved in researching and being a researcher in the field of ethnomathematics. Thus, the article presents three tensions: The first one has to do with the relational links between the researchers and the indigenous community. The second one is related to the need to consider language and the languages produced by the communities to broaden the theoretical, methodological and practical horizons of the research process. The third one has to do with the personal openness to learn other ways of being and existing in the world. The investigation follows the oral history method, which values and understands the experience from the voices of those who have been silenced and/or oppressed, and it is based on deconstructive analysis. As a result, we get the Jaibanás (those in charge of protecting the territory and health of the members of the community) to participate, proposing alternatives for some of the Embera Chamí wisdom to be made explicit, discussed and problematized at school.
