<b>Contextualization and valorization in Wittgenstein: discussions on the relation between mathematics education and rural education

Keywords: ethnomathematics, post-structuralism, teaching, language.

Abstract

 This article discusses contextualization and valuation when it comes to the relationship between mathematics education and rural education. From a bibliographical point of view, this article is the result of the initial phase of a research project that has been carried out since 2015 at the Universidade Federal do Sul e Sudeste do Pará (UNIFESSPA). The goal is to understand the relationships between mathematics education and rural education by authors who discuss this in Brazilian research. The research shows that in the rural education the contextualization and the valorization of local knowledge stand out. In this sense, I identify the presence of a new line of research that interweaves ethnomathematics with poststructuralist and Wittgensteinian studies that, in addition to seeking to bring the rural context into the classroom, further evidence the ways of rural life. From this, I present different theoretical perspectives that the philosophy of Wittgenstein can offer for the research and teaching of mathematics in rural contexts and send propositions of analyzes and pedagogical practices destined to the area of mathematics in the courses of rural education and for the basic education in this context.
