%0 Journal Article %T Un encuentro con la matem¨¢gica apoyada en dados %A Mart¨ªnez %A Oswaldo %J Investigaci¨®n y Postgrado %D 2009 %I Scientific Electronic Library Online %X the main goal of this work is to build a compendium of leisure activities designed from the perspective of the mathemagics, with the pretension of showing its advantages in the process of teaching, learning and evaluation of the mathematical contents. this article is based on a documentary research and is supported by data revealed about the theme that, in this case, is represented by mathematical curiosities. such curiosities received an analysis of content that allowed to locate the mathematical objects that underlie in them. these were used to build the activities as well as the theoretical-referential framework that supports the concept of mathemagics. finally, the main aspiration with this compendium of activities is to turn the recreational aspect into a didactic and recent resource with loads of leisureness, representing an opportunity to the production of knowledge and the building of mathematical knowledge inside and outside the classroom. %K didactic activities %K mathematical education %K leisureness %K mathemagic. %U http://www.scielo.org.ve/scielo.php?script=sci_abstract&pid=S1316-00872009000200002&lng=en&nrm=iso&tlng=en
