El pensamiento lógico como herramienta fundamental en la didáctica de las matemáticas para construir conocimiento

The role of logical thinking in mathematics education is crucial for fostering analytical and critical skills. Integrating logic into teaching provides students with a solid foundation for understanding and effectively applying mathematics. Logical thought has evolved throughout history-from Aristotle to contemporary thinkers-with philosophical, mathematical, and scientific contributions that greatly benefit the didactics of mathematics teaching and the learners. These historical and current insights enrich our understanding of logic and offer valuable strategies for improving the teaching and learning of mathematics. This paper reports the essay "Logical Thinking in the Didactics of Mathematics: A Tribute for the Construction of Knowledge" as a dialectical experience aimed at promoting the use of logical strategies in the classroom to enhance the comprehension and application of mathematical concepts. The methodology employed a documentary research approach with a qualitative focus and a symbolic-hermeneutic paradigm. Given the experience's applicability, a key reflection is the need for a permanent didactic praxis of logical thinking, where mathematics teachers develop and update their mathematical reasoning skills.
