A educação das relações étnicos raciais para a formação geográfica do ensino médio integrado do IFPE- Campus Recife : um olhar a partir da lei 11.645/2008

Abstract

This term paper is the result of an investigation aimed at contributing to the application of Law 11.645/2008 in the geography education of basic education at IFPE-Campus Recife. To this end, we analyzed the teaching programs in Geography at the Integrated High School of the IFPE Campus Recife and assessed the knowledge of students and high school Geography teachers at the IFPE Campus Recife about Afro-Brazilian and indigenous culture. Our research adopted a qualitative approach, and data collection included questionnaires with open and closed questions, as well as semi-structured interviews and document analysis. Research into ethnic-racial relations in education indicates that, despite the legal progress provided by Laws 10.639/2003 and 11.645/2008 and the growth of research in this area, there is still a large gap preventing the real application of the legal framework. We are still searching for an education that truly respects our ethnic-racial diversity. The data observed during the analysis of the research revealed clear progress in the inclusion of ethnic-racial relations education in the programs of the Integrated Technical Courses at IFPE (Recife campus). However, the current scenario of challenges encourages us to consider that this progress is still insufficient. Pedagogical practice in Geography followed the same finding, i.e. despite progress, it is still insufficient to fully include education on ethnic-racial relations in classes. The existence of the Center for Afro-Brazilian and Indigenous Studies - NEABI, strengthens the anti-racism struggle at the IFPE Recife Campus as a whole, which contributes to progress in the quest for full implementation of laws 10.639/2003 and 11.645/2008.
