Résumé

Historical awareness has an impact on teaching and learning mathematics. It includes knowing the historical development, the questions under investigation and the answers given to these problems. In this paper, the focus lies on calculus and its applications in economics. It shows how far the knowledge of a changing scientific understanding can be beneficial in teacher education. The paper covers this issue from an epistemological, historical and educational perspective and suggests a constructivist view for educational purposes.
