Abstract Since the early decades of the 20 th century, one can note the presence of a disciplinewhose constitution, operation and objectives are aimed at teaching how to teachmathematics . Historically, the course Methodology of Mathematics Teaching hasappeared in university programs aimed at preparing mathematics teachers under variousdifferent names.
