Memory and identity in Jaguariaíva, Paraná: mapping the teaching of geography and from school municipal atlas

Abstract

With the goal of producing an atlas municipal school for the teaching of geography in elementary school, we propose to develop a research project that has as its main focus the registry and the study of identity and memory of elementary school students from public schools in Jaguariaíva, Paraná, Brazil. The research assumes that it is necessary to produce a didactic material from considerations of students about their county, because this work can contribute to the study of spatial references and backgrounds of the residents of the locality and for the analysis is of different languages and forms of communication expressed to manifest belonging to the municipality. In a globalized world, it is increasingly necessary to study the regional and local identities in order to promote their recovery and forming active citizens in all spatial scales. To identify the identity and memories of students about their living space, we plan a series of activities to be developed, such as production of texts, graphics, drawings and images. The materials produced will be analyzed. We will adopt the qualitative method with the use of evidentiary paradigm, the use of document analysis and interviews. (AU)
