It is important to ponder the impact of the Inquisition, as it began in 1492 and officially ended in 1821. Two popular projects immediately come to mind. The first is Spain's most important literary work, Don Quixote, by Cervantes, that shows the Inquisition picture in a way that Cervantes reported it, yet personally escaped the dungeons. A more recent USA project was the movie, The Mission, staring Robert De Niro, playing a South American slaver, turned Jesuit. Laura' reporting of Inca history, from the Incan point of view, as written up by F. Valera is also important to consider. It explains why the quipu, first reported to modern archaeology in the 1920's was ignored as containing jibberish. Even today

NASGEm North American Study Group on Ethnomathematics "Employing an ethnomathematics pedagogy provides flexibility and versatility to the mathematical universals based on perspectives derivative of culture and experiences." Adriana Moreno Magallanes NASGEm is the North American chapter of ISGEm , the International Study Group on Ethnomathematics. What is ethnomathematics? The term was coined by Ubiratan D'Ambrosio to describe the mathematical practices of identifiable cultural groups. It is sometimes used specifically for small-scale indigenous societies, but in its broadest sense the "ethno" prefix can refer to any group national societies, labor communities, religious traditions, professional classes, and so on. Mathematical practices include symbolic systems, spatial designs, practical construction techniques, calculation methods, measurement in time and space, specific ways of reasoning and inferring, and other cognitive and material activities which can be translated to formal mathematical representation. NASGEm strives to increase our understanding of the cultural diversity of mathematical practices, and to apply this knowledge to education and development.

But the real universal law is that everything is relative, even in math. The release last month of a new math curriculum for New York City schools by Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg has elicited something just short of vituperation. Back-to-basics advocates denounce as ''fuzzy math'' its inclusion of so-called constructivist teaching techniques. Critics complain that those approaches encourage self-discovery and collaborative problem-solving at the expense of proved practices like memorization, repetition and mastery of algorithm. It's all the latest in a century of American math wars. The previous generation can remember the struggle over ''new math'' during the 1950's and 60's. (''Hooray for new math,/New-hoo-hoo math!'' Tom Lehrer sang. ''It won't do you a bit of good to review math./It's so simple,/So very simple./That only a child can do it!'') Battles flared even earlier in the century over ''progressive'' agendas for math education of the type pushed by John Dewey. How tame those struggles seem, however, when compared to the rising vanguard of self-described ethnomathematicians. For some, the new discipline just means studying the anthropology of various measurement methods; they merely want to supplement the accepted canon from Pythagoras to Euclid to Newton with mind-expanding explorations of mathematical ideas from other cultures. For others, however, ethnomathematics is an effort to supplant the tyranny of Western mathematical standards.

In the United States, African Americans, Latinos, and Native Americans have lower success rates and higher drop-out rates in mathematics than other racial or ethnic groups. Given that quantitative competency serves increasingly as a vehicle for economic enfranchisement, these differential success rates make mathematics achievement a civil rights issue.

The contributors identify several of the field's broad themesreconsidering what counts as mathematical knowledge, considering interactions between culture and mathematical knowledge, and uncovering hidden and distorted histories of mathematical knowledge. The book offers a diversity of ethnomathematics perspectives that develop both theoretical and practical issues from various disciplines including mathematics, mathematics education, history, anthropology, cognitive psychology, feminist studies, and African studies written by authors from Brazil, England, Australia, Mozambique, Palestine, Belgium, and the United States.

Email this to a friend Ethnomathematics 'Ethnomathematics ' is the study of mathematics that considers the culture in which mathematics arises. It especially focuses on the mathematics that is part of general culture, rather than formal, academic mathematics, though some ethnomathematicians study formal mathematics as an artifact of a particular culture or cultures. The goal of ethnomathematics is to contribute both to the understanding of culture and the understanding of mathematics, but mainly to the relationship between the two. Subject matter Subjects which are studied in ethnomathematics include but are not limited to numeral system s, formation of number name s, architecture weaving , and game s of skill and chance Numerals Some of the systems for representing numbers in previous and present cultures are well known. Roman numerals use a few letters of the alphabet to represent numbers up to the thousands, but are not intended for arbitrarily large numbers and can only represent positive integers Hindu-Arabic numerals " are a family of systems, originating in India and passing to medieval
