FERRARI, Marcela  y  FARFAN, Rosa María. A socioepistemological study of logarithms: the construction of a network of models. Relime [online]. 2008, vol.11, n.3, pp.309-354. ISSN 2007-6819.

From a socioepistomological view, the intertwined social practices and self-generated social representations, establish a dialog different from the prevailing school discourse. In this report, we reflect about mathematics majors' argumentations about the geometric construction of the quadratic and logarithm functions using a geometric dynamic system. This work has been developed using the engineering didactic as a research method hence we include some reflections from the mathematical school discourse, from the epistemology of the logarithm function, and a brief state of the art about these notions.

Palabras llave : Socioepistemology; logarithmic curve; covariation; dynamic geometry.
