Camará – vivendo e transformando: uma proposta de turismo pedagógico para escolas públicas de ensino médio em Camaragibe/PE'

Abstract

Pedagogical Tourism is a tool that integrates practical experiences with educational activities, promoting learning about heritage through visits to places of interest. The main objective of this project is to propose a pedagogical tourism itinerary focused on Heritage Education, aimed at students in the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd years of High School in the State Public Schools of Camaragibe, located in the Aldeia neighborhood. The methodology of the study is based on bibliographic and documentary research, complemented by the application of questionnaires and interviews with teachers and coordinators from the state schools in the municipality, in order to understand the implementation of this practice within the school environment throughout the academic year. It is observed that the implementation of this project is feasible, due to the interest of teachers in exploring new teaching methods and the importance of bringing students closer to the cultural heritage of the region. Thus, the proposal aims to promote more meaningful learning, allowing students to connect theoretical content with real-life experiences, strengthening their understanding and appreciation of local cultural and historical aspects. Therefore, the project has the potential to boost Heritage Education, form more conscious and engaged citizens, foster tourism activities, and promote the conservation of the heritage in Camaragibe.
