Integração curricular no curso técnico Subsequente em Manutenção e Suporte em Informática do IFPE Campus Paulista

Abstract

Among the principles that underlie the design of the integrated curriculum are the relationship between theory and practice and interdisciplinarity. The ideal for each course is that its Projeto Pedagógico de Curso (PPC) includes the principles of the integrated curriculum aimed at training students for the world of work. Given this context, the objective of this study is to understand the curricular integration promoted by the PPC of the subsequent technical course in Computer Maintenance and Support at IFPE Campus Paulista, based on the principles of interdisciplinarity and the relationship between theory and practice. For this, documental analysis was performed and a questionnaire was applied via Google Forms and subsequent descriptive analysis of the collected data. It was possible to perceive that the pedagogical project of the course under study covers the principles of the relationship between theory and practice and of interdisciplinarity and that the responding graduates were able to perceive a relationship between theory and practice, as well as between the subjects studied. Based on the response of 42 graduates, it was possible to conclude that the practical classes need more attention and in this way this study helps to identify where the course needs to improve.
