| Abstract (English): | The research aimed to analyze fruit production as a sustainability strategy in knowledge/practice and survival in the Matapi Agricultural Colony. Using a qualitative approach and ethnographic research, techniques such as participant observation and group discussions were used. Reference is made to the studies of D'Ambrosio (2011, 2020), Mattos (2015), Mattos (2020), Mesquita (2023), among others. The narratives of Mrs. Raimundinha and her son are presented in the discussions and results, addressing the concept of Ethnomathematics in approaches with the dimensions formulated by D'Ambrosio (2011) and the affective dimension created by Mattos (2020). It is concluded that pineapple production enables dialogue and exchange between local beings, knowledge, and practices, as well as some school mathematical concepts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): | La investigación tuvo como objetivo analizar la producción frutícola como estrategia de sostenibilidad en el conocimiento/práctica y supervivencia en la Colonia Agrícola Matapi. Con un enfoque cualitativo y de investigación etnográfica, se utilizaron técnicas como la observación participante y discusiones grupales. Se hace referencia a los estudios de D'Ambrosio (2011, 2020), Mattos (2015), Mattos (2020), Mesquita (2023), entre otros. Las narrativas de Señora Raimundinha y su hijo son traídas a colación en las discusiones y resultados, abordando el concepto de Etnomatemática en aproximaciones a las dimensiones creadas por D'Ambrosio (2011) y la dimensión afectiva creada por Mattos (2020). Se concluye que la producción de piña posibilita el diálogo y el intercambio entre los seres, saberes y prácticas locales y algunos conceptos matemáticos escolares. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Portuguese): | A pesquisa objetivou analisar a produção de frutas como estratégia de sustentabilidade no saber/fazer e de sobrevivência na Colônia Agrícola do Matapi. Com abordagem qualitativa e pesquisa do tipo etnográfico, utilizou-se técnicas como a observação participante e a roda de conversa. Recorre-se aos estudos de D'Ambrosio (2011, 2020), Mattos (2015), Mattos (2020), Mesquita (2023), entre outros. Apresentam-se as narrativas de Sra. Raimundinha e de seu filho nas discussões e resultados, abordando o conceito de etnomatemática em aproximações com as dimensões formuladas por D'Ambrosio (2011) e a dimensão afetiva criada por Mattos (2020). Conclui-se que a produção de abacaxi possibilita diálogo e troca entre os seres, saberes e fazeres locais, assim como alguns conceitos matemáticos escolares. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
