El "status" socio-académico de las matemáticas : un punto de referencia singular

Resumen

Results of different surveys among students of basic and secondary education show that mathematics are perceived as a subject -matter with special status, as compared with the rest of disciplines; its importance, academic utility, difficulty and boredom are emphasized. This panorama changes a little according to educational levels, kind of studies, courses and so on, but the differenciated socio -academical status persists.
