Curricular framework. New High School. Sociology curriculum component.
This master's research consists of a documental analysis of a descriptive and exploratory nature and its general objective is to understand the place of Sociology in the curricular references elaborated by states in Brazil for the implementation of the High School Reform. It is known that the trajectory of the Sociology curricular component in the Basic Education curriculum is marked by a certain instability in the face of curricular reforms in Brazil in different historical contexts. The most recent reform implemented through Law nº 13.415/2017, amended the LDB and established that the High School curriculum will consist of the National Common Curricular Base and training itineraries. Once again the presence of Sociology in the Curriculum undergoes changes in its disciplinary configurations. After the reform, the High School curriculum began to contain “studies and practices” in Sociology. The change in the disciplinary character of the Sociology component represents its dilution and reduction in the curriculum. Faced with so many changes in the curricular structure, our research problem focused on the following question: How is the knowledge of Social Sciences structured as a curricular component of Sociology in the curricular references approved for the New High School? We sought to identify how the contents of the Sociology curricular component are mobilized in each framework, analyze the competencies and skills described for Sociology and, finally, describe how the relationship between sociological studies and the territory was elaborated in each curricular framework. researched. Our theoretical framework focuses on the more general Critical Educational Theory from the contributions of Jean-Claude Passeron and Pierre Bourdieu as well as on the critical theories of the curriculum, through the contributions of Michael Young, Michael Apple, Gimeno Sacristán, John Franklin Bobbit, Ralph Tyler, Ivor Goodson, Moreira and Silva, Jean Claude Forquim, and John Dewey. The hypothesis tested consisted of the following: In view of the political, economic and social diversity of Brazilian states, it is believed that there were variations in the proposals established for the curricular component of Sociology in the recently approved frameworks for the New High School. The normative documents analyzed in the research were: LDB, DCEM, PCNs, PCNs+ OCEM, BNCC and the 27 curricular references elaborated in the 26 states and in the Federal District to guide the New High School.
