Teacher Training in History: the (non) place of childhood and adolescence in the Degree curriculum
Initial teacher training; rights of children and adolescents; History teaching.
This research aims to problematize the place of protecting the rights of children and adolescents in initial training courses for teachers in History, considering the provisions of Law No. 8,069/1990, Law No. 11,525/2007 and Law No. 14,679/2023, which includes the full protection of the rights of these developing beings among the foundations of the training of basic school education professionals. With this objective, we highlight the contributions of Hans-Georg Gadamer's philosophical hermeneutics as a pedagogical approach that bases educational praxis on the relationship between learning historical knowledge and the protection of the human rights of children and adolescents. What we defend is a hermeneutic conception of History teaching that guides teaching practice based on the relationship between the lives of students and teaching in the final years of elementary school, the second stage of basic school education.With this objective, we highlight the contributions of Hans-Georg Gadamer's philosophical hermeneutics as a pedagogical approach that bases educational praxis on the relationship between learning historical knowledge and the protection of the human rights of children and adolescents. What we defend is a hermeneutic conception of History teaching that guides teaching practice based on the relationship between the lives of students and teaching in the final years of elementary school, the second stage of basic school education. Within this understanding, discussions about teacher training are based on authors such as ARROYO (2012), CHALOT (2005), GIROUX (1997), TARDIF (2011), VEIGA (2022) in the context of the (counter) reforms proposed by Resolution CNE/ CP no. 02, of July 2, 2015, CNE/CP Resolution No. 2, of December 20, 2019 and CNE/CP Resolution No. 4, of May 29, 2024, which establish the National Curricular Guidelines for the initial training of teaching professionals of basic school education. Approaches to children's rights are discussed based on studies by MIRANDA (2010, 2018, 2023), FERRARI (2002), MONTI (2023), ARENHART (2016), FRIEDMANN (2020), FURLANETTO (2020), among others . In developing the research, a case study will be carried out in the History degree courses at the University of Pernambuco (UPE), Federal Rural University of Pernambuco (UFRPE) and Catholic University of Pernambuco (UNICAP). The results will contribute to guiding educational practices aimed at protecting the rights of children and adolescents in the school space. It is also believed that studies will prove the value that the intellectual and social function of the teacher has in identifying, preventing and intervening violence against children and adolescents.
