Between the Epistemic and the Affective: Mapping Didactic Suitability in Mathematics Education from a Territorial Perspective
This article examines the perceived development of didactic suitability among in-service mathematics teachers in Panama, drawing on the Onto-Semiotic Approach to Mathematical Knowledge and Instruction (OSA; Spanish: Enfoque Ontosemiótico, OSA). Using a mixed-methods, interpretative design, we integrate a post-training self-assessment survey (five-point Likert scale) with territorial participation metadata from the national EDEM program (2017–2022…

Citizen science as a relevant approach to the challenges of complex thinking development in higher education: Mapping and bibliometric analysis
Educational strategies have undergone significant transformations in an era marked by rapid globalization, advancements in communication technologies, and challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic. Amid these changes, Citizen Science (CS) has gained prominence as an innovative educational approach, particularly in fostering complex thinking skills necessary to navigate contemporary global trends. This study aims to fill the knowledge gap regarding th…
Evaluating didactic strategies for teaching mathematics: A Policy–Driven approach to gender equity in Panama’s education system
This article evaluates the Didactic Strategies for Teaching Mathematics (DSTM) program, designed to enhance the teaching of mathematical content in primary and secondary education in a hybrid modality. In alignment with SENACYT’s Gender-STEM-2040 Policy, which emphasizes gender equality as a foundational principle of education, this study aims to assess whether initial teacher training aligns with this policy through the use of mathematical strat…
Artificial Intelligence Adoption in Latin American Mathematics Education: Challenges and Opportunities
This doctoral research explores the conditions, barriers, and pedagogical implications of adopting Artificial Intelligence (AI) in mathematics education across Latin America. Grounded in an integrative framework that combines the Ontosemiotic Approach (OSA), the Didactic-Mathematical Knowledge and Competences (DMKC) model, the extended TPACK-XK framework, and the Theory of Instrumental Genesis (TIG), the study employs a mixed-method design involv…
Cultural Imaginaries and Complex Thinking: Impact of Cultural Education on the Development of Perceived Achievement of Complex Thinking in Undergraduates
This article presents the results of measuring the perceived achievement of complex thinking competency in a group of university students enrolled in a subject about Mexican cultural education. Specifically, the work intended to identify whether there is a correlation between the level of complex thinking and its sub-competencies with the appropriation of cultural knowledge. The sample population of university students from different disciplines …
Fragment of Story: An Otomi Woman from Hidalgo in Mexico (1886-1974)
We present the life dynamics of an indigenous woman. Those dynamics, which took place mainly in the post-revolutionary era, have been taken from life stories. They have been built among fragments of memories and empty documentaries. The analysis approaches the sociocultural conditions of a region where ancestral knowledge was vital for family subsistence. This approach allows us to consider the actors, Ángela Tolentino and other Otomí-Tepehua [ge…
