Impact of Informatics on Mathematics and Its Teaching On the Importance of Epistemological Analysis to Feed Didactical Research

摘要

In this article, we come back to the seminal role of epistemol-ogy in didactics of sciences and particularly in mathematics. We defend that the epistemological research on the interactions between mathematics and informatics is necessary to feed didactical research on today's mathematics learning and teaching situations, impacted by the development of informatics. We develop some examples to support this idea and propose some perspectives to attack this issue.
