Indisciplina escolar: o olhar de professoras de uma escola municipal do distrito de Mororó

Abstract

This research approaches the school indiscipline, a theme that has been one of the schools’ main worries. The research had as its goals the analysis of the teachers’ conceptions about school indiscipline, aiming to comprehend the strategies adopted by them to face head-on this question that hampers the classes’ progress. The authors that back up the research are: Tiba (2006), Aquino (1996) and Alves (2006). The methodological approach is qualitative through field research. It was used as collection instrument a questionnaire comprised of open questions. The research’s subjects were four Early Years Grade School teachers of a school in the District of Mororó, a municipality from Barra de Santana, Paraíba. The results indicate that indiscipline is something that persists in the classroom, but this has not pressed the school and teachers to study this thematic in continued training. The teachers do not link the indiscipline to classroom dynamics, even though they consider lessons to be somewhat traditional. They attribute the responsibility for the indiscipline to the students and do not occupy the students as a way to ease the indiscipline. The teachers do not know the inclusion of the indiscipline thematic in the school’s Political- Pedagogical Project. It is concluded that indiscipline still isn’t a subject of study for the teaching staff and maybe, because of that, it takes up a significant space in the classroom.
