Abstract

It is assumed that educational mathematics must construct a reference frame of to legitimize the functional justification demanded by other domains of knowledge. Its construction is a sine qua non condition to create a reciprocal and horizontal relationship between school mathematics and mathematics of other domains of knowledge. The nature of the aforementioned compels to study the social construction of mathematical knowledge, which provides the mathematics in use that happens in school, work, and life, and in their transversalities among these. These two aspects define a category of mathematical modelling, which on the one hand, formulates a theoretical variety and, on the other, it will involve a program to permanently change and transform school mathematical knowledge.
