O uso das metodologias ativas no processo de ensino e aprendizagem da cartografia escolar no ensino fundamental II

Abstract

Cartography is present in the Geography curriculum in all years of basic education, providing the student, among other things, with an approximation link between the phenomena that occur in geographic space and its lived space. Although technological advances in recent years have enabled the improvement of teaching methodologies, it is noticeable that the teaching of Cartography does not follow such modernization, comprising a learning process based on traditional teaching methodologies, which commonly occur through memorization and repetition of information. In this direction, the aim of this work is anchored on the analysis of how active methodologies and the use of Digital Technologies of Information and Communication can be constituted as a possible methodological alternative for a more meaningful learning. This work is structured around the following methodological steps: literature review on school cartography; the identification of skills and competences associated with the teaching of cartography proposed by the Common National Curriculum Base; the survey of scientific productions that address experiences associating the use of active methodologies with the teaching of cartography; the application of three practices using active methods with students from the 6th year 9th year of elementary school and later, in order to validate the proposed practices, a questionnaire was applied to the students of the respective classes. Mostly, the results obtained indicated that students considered a significant improvement in the understanding of cartographic elements
