摘要：The growing use of digital repositories, as well as the expansion of the volume of documents available for analysis and use as research sources, require an adaptation in the way of carrying out investigations in order to enhance their results. The aim of this article is to present a new tool for knowledge development, in the context of the history of mathematics education, presenting it through a case study. Using a lexicometric analysis, combined with the use of data processing software such as IRAMUTEQ, research gains the possibility of using multiple texts, enhancing the analysis process and greatly reducing the time spent at work. This expedient allows the crossing of data and information tending to amplify the results of studies in the history of mathematics education.
