Curriculum; Geography Teaching; Public School; Baixada Fluminense.
The research aims to understand the existing relationships between subjects in the school field and curriculum, with the aim of seeking a geography that makes sense for students. The present research has the general objective of critically analyzing the movement of curricular elaboration and implementation from the dialogue – or the non-dialogue – between the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) and the teaching community of the state of Rio de Janeiro, within the spatial reality from Baixada Fluminense. The research methodology is divided into two moments, where the first is based on the bibliographical survey in search of the epistemological enrichment of the theme, highlighting authors related to the curriculum and teaching of geography, as well as education in general, achieving the an analytical study between what the BNCC document and its idealizing organizations, such as the Todos Pela Base movement; Bradesco Foundation; Lehmann Foundation; Ayrton Senna Institute, among others, explain in the official document that measures are necessary for an effective change, aiming at a better placement of Brazilian public education in international exams, such as the International Student Assessment Program (PISA), which, by the way, is an international methodology that aims to evaluate education systems around the world, including Brazil, measuring the educational level of 15-year-olds through reading, math and science tests. The second moment seeks to bring reflections, narratives and tangible possibilities for the beginning of a process of curricular and empirical restructuring of teaching work that makes sense for students and the teaching staff itself, within the public context of the municipality of Nova Iguaçu and its education basic, final years of elementary school. Through this dialogue of ideals materialized in the official document of the BNCC and contrasting with quantitative data of the current moment in Brazilian public education, we will seek to analyze what is proposed by the Base and what the factors that actually imply in the difficulty in the search for an improvement in quality are being education, which, by the way, may go far beyond curricular changes. The research seeks to establish a locus between curriculum and educational quality, aiming to understand the relationships between the subjects of the school and the curriculum, with the objective of seeking a geography that makes sense for students, where they have access to an idea of educational quality. that goes beyond statistical data in external exams, but that is materialized, on a daily basis, with the right to come and go, accessibility and stay at school being respected.
