Abstract

A training program was created and developed for Mathematics teachers under the title of “Mathematics and Art for the Classroom”. This took the form of workshops aiming to relate mathematics and art through images and to enable the teachers to learn how to teach mathematics in a “different” way. By gathering the empirical material for research, it was  realized that the way in which the training program was planned and performed worked as a supportive and practice-orienting device, which produces and regulates the subjects that take  part of it. However,  experiences produced fissures and provocations that opened up the possibility to invent other questions: what is  a mathematics teacher’s training program to do ? Thus, this article aims to reflect on this issue.
