Formação de professores de geografia na UFPB e UFCG: mudanças e desafios da nova reforma curricular

Abstract

The article is now presented as Course Completion Work (CCW) systematizes research results developed in the Institutional Program for Scientific Initiation Scholarships, (acronym in Portuguese, PIBIC/CNPq/UFPB), between 2021 and 2022, whose objective was to investigate the changes and challenges in the training of Geography teachers after the approval of the

Common National Base for the Initial Training of Basic Education Teachers, the BNC- Formação. For this purpose, the three face-to-face undergraduate courses in Geography located

at the Federal University of Paraíba (João Pessoa campus) and at the Federal University of Campina Grande (Campina Grande and Cajazeiras campus) were adopted as the spatial area of the research. The methodology followed the guidelines of qualitative research and, at first, proceeded with the analysis of official documents such as the National Curriculum Guidelines (DCN) and the Course Pedagogical Projects (PPC). Complementarily, a bibliographical analysis of books, articles and works related to the theme was used, in particular articles by

coordinators, teachers and students of the investigated courses that were published in the e- book “Training of Geography Teachers in Paraíba: advances and resistance in curriculum

reform”, organized by Assis, Albuquerque and Morais (2022). This book is a collection of reflections presented in round tables and working groups of the Seminar Formation of Geography Teachers in Paraíba, held at UFPB, in May 2022, in a hybrid format, as one of the activities and results of this research. Finally, video recordings of the aforementioned seminar were also used as a source of complementary research. Content analysis was the technique used to examine data from official documents, bibliographic materials and speeches and messages present in the video recordings. In the results and discussions, the differences between the 2015 and 2019 DCN were identified and the training advances that reinforce the collective position of the investigated courses of opposing and resisting the changes imposed by the BNC-Training were evaluated.
