About this document
Ideology of Certainty in Math Education by Fred Lopes is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the "ideology of certainty" in mathematics education. This ideology portrays mathematics as a perfect, pure system that is above human influence and can provide infallible, definitive solutions to problems. However, this view is not supported by debates about the foundations and social aspects of mathematics. The ideology of certainty obscures the human biases and assumptions inherent in applying mathematics, and reinforces the notion that it is the best or only way to approach issues
