Maheux, Jean-François; Proulx, Jérôme – ZDM: The International Journal on Mathematics Education, 2015
In this paper, we emphasize the methodological challenges of analyzing data with/in an enactivist framework in which (1) all knowing is doing is being, while focusing on, (2) how an entry by the observer transforms usual ways of analyzing data. In this sense, the association of knowing with doing suggests a shift in attention away from what…
