Vivências em gincanas escolares no ensino médio em Caucaia-CE: ensino de história e educação para relações étnico-raciais para além da pedagogia do evento

Abstract

This dissertation analyzes the construction and development of anti-racist school competitions in High School education in Caucaia, Ceará, at Escola de Ensino de Tempo Integral Presidente José Sarney, focusing on their role in History Teaching and beyond the pedagogy of the event, promoting Laws 10.639/03 and 11.645/08. The study aims to understand the anti-racist proposal and the high school curriculum in accordance with the curricular guidelines for Ethnic-Racial Education, as well as to discuss Black identity in Ceará and its ambiguities. Furthermore, it seeks to understand the Black Movement in Ceará and how students’ knowledge is constructed through the process of school competitions, extending beyond the event itself or a few days in the school calendar. In this sense, the dynamics of the anti-racist school competition directly impact the institution’s Political-Pedagogical Project, the school calendar, lesson planning, and History classes, as well as the relationships among members of the school community and between the school and social movements, both within the school environment and in the students’ lives. In addition, the research aims to develop a product: a digital archive and repository connected to the school competition, serving as a permanent source and object for research by students, teachers, and other interested individuals. The investigation was carried out through the analysis of documents from the Ceará State Department of Education (SEDUC-CE) and the school, images and logbooks produced by students during the competitions, as well as questionnaires applied to 24 students and interviews conducted with two third-year high school students and one former student. The data made it possible to identify structural limitations in the high school curriculum regarding Education for Ethnic-Racial Relations and highlighted the school competition as a permanent, creative pedagogical practice capable of redefining and promoting anti-racism in schools.
