- O Compêndio de Álgebra para o 3.ºCiclo Liceal (1950)Publication . Almeida, Mária Cristina; UIED - Unidade de Investigação Educação e Desenvolvimento; Universidad Nacional de Educacion a Distancia (UNED)This paper presents a work on the history of mathematics education, from a perspective that strives for a deeper reading of what has transpired in school mathematics. For this purpose, we focus on the Algebra Textbook for the 3rd cycle of liceus, approved in 1950, attempting to better understand the controversy surrounding its adoption as well as the discussion on the teaching of infinitesimal analysis in the context of this stage of secondary education. We begin by describing some opinions taken from articles published in educational and scientific journals about this textbook. In our study, we analyse two editions of the Algebra Textbook, attempting to track changes in its content. Here, we present the results of that analysis, as well as a reflection on the changes found that was written from the point of view of a teacher’s professional knowledge. The paper is based mainly on legislation, educational and scientific journals, the Algebra Textbooks for the 3rd cycle of liceus and on interviews with the author, António Augusto Lopes (1917-2015).
- Portuguese entrepreneurial women – fostering learning communitiesPublication . Gonçalves, Maria JoséThis article repports findings on a project - DONA EMPRESA - that the Portuguese Association of Women Entrepreneurs has been promoting for four years now. The project aims at supporting unemployed women, having a business idea, to create their own employment. So far about one hundred enterprises have been created in the scope of this project, their surviving rate being very high after one year of business running.
- Playing Newtonian Games with ModellusPublication . Teodoro, Vitor DuarteThis article is a short introduction on how to use Modellus (a computer package that is freely available on the Internet and used in the IOP Advancing Physics course) to build physics games using Newton’s laws, expressed as differential equations. Solving systems of differential equations is beyond most secondary-school or first-year college students. However, with Modellus, the solution is simply the output of the usual physical reasoning: define the force law, compute its magnitude and components, use it to obtain the acceleration components, then the velocity components and, finally, use the velocity components to find the coordinates.
