Resumen
Considerando una aproximación Etnomatemática, entendida como el estudio de los procesos matemáticos,símbolos, jergas, mitologías, razonamiento, practicados por grupos culturales identificados; valoramos lasposibilidades didácticas que pueden desprenderse del uso de las ideas matemáticas utilizadas en la culturaInca.El trabajo presenta dos partes. Una valoración del uso de la matemática en la cultura Inca y otra relativa asugerencias didácticas. Se propone por ejemplo: que los alumnos reconozcan qué conocimientos, patrones,objetos o formas geométricas usaban los incas en sus diversas manifestaciones culturales y tecnológicas. Apartir de estas “tareas" podemos introducir al estudiante en el hermoso mundo de la geometría, haciendo queaprendan de un modo bastante intuitivo y natural.
Abstract
Considering an approximation Etnomatemática, understood as the study of the mathematical processes,symbols, slangs, mythologies, reasoning, practiced by identifying cultural groups; we value the didacticpossibilities that can be removed of the use of the ideas math utilized in the Inca culture. The work presentstwo parts. An appraisal of the use of the mathematics in the Inca culture and another relating to didacticsuggestions. It is proposed for example: that the students recognize what know-how, bosses, objects or youform geometric they used the Inca in their diverse technological and cultural demonstrations. From these"tasks" we can introduce al student in the beautiful world of the geometry, doing that they learn of a naturaland quite intuitive way.
