CORDERO OSORIO, Francisco; CEN CHE, Claudia  y  SUAREZ TELLEZ, Liliana. The Functionings and Forms of Graphs in Textbooks: An Institutional Practice in High School. Relime [online]. 2010, vol.13, n.2, pp.187-214. ISSN 2007-6819.

This article will provide a reference framework based on socio-epistemological theory in relation to the uses of graphs that generate institutional practices in high school. We will demonstrate that the functionings and forms of graphs maintain a dialectical relationship, even in textbooks, and that they redefine themselves in order to make way for other functionings and graphic forms, which expresses the development of the use of the graph in three aspects: the methods for the use of graphic representation, the understandings of graphs and their functionality.

Palabras llave : Institutional practice; redefining; functioning; form.
