Educação do campo no novo ensino médio do estado do Paraná: uma análise curricular da área de Matemática

Abstract

With the 2017 High School reform, the New High School was implemented in Paraná in 2022. Our objective in this master's-level research is to investigate how the official proposals for the New High School of Secretaria Estadual de Educação do Estado do Paraná are aimed at rural schools, settlements and camps schools, islands schools, and quilombolas schools, with a focus on curricular components involving Mathematics. To this end, we conducted the research in two stages: the first as documentary research; and the second through interviews with people involved in developing of the curricular documents. The first stage of the research was carried out through bibliographic and documentary studies and based on the theoretical framework adopted, this framework is divided into three interconnected and fundamental sections, which deal with: Rural Education, which covers the discussion on the specific educational needs of rural schools, settlements and camps schools, islands schools, and quilombolas schools; the curriculum as an instrument of maintaining power; and the New High School, an educational policy that is part of a set of policies that aim to transform the right to education into a product to be acquired. In the second stage, we interviewed five people who collaborated in writing the New High School curriculum documents specific to the area of Mathematics, intended for rural schools, settlements and camps schools, islands schools, and quilombolas schools. As a result of the research, it is worth noting that the curricular documents were developed hastily, without allowing for dialogue with rural schools and the communities involved. Furthermore, the results of this research also supported the creation of an Educational Product aimed at teachers, researchers, and others interested in understanding how a curriculum was constructed based on this specific experience.
