Educação integral: componentes curriculares no ensino fundamental

Abstract

The goal of the paper is to analyze the curricular components of elementary education in leading to Integrated Education. Considering the offer of diversified activities and identifying to what measure this curriculum includes the multiple dimensions which involve human formation. The goal is to identify how the school develops Integrated Education involving various spaces, times and educational actors, favoring the improvement of teaching and learning. For this a trajectory through the history of Integrated Education in Brazil is carried out, recovering proposals for public education based on concepts of the educator Anísio Teixeira, passing also through some experiences of full time schools that were implemented in the country as of the decade of the 1950 s. Currently Brazil is going through a context of educational reforms which began with the World Conference on Education for All, carried out in Thailand, in 1990 which resulted in the World Declaration of Education for All. Shortly afterward, the Law of Guidelines and Bases for National Education (LDB), (Law n. 9.394/96), emerges regarding Elementary Education, which prescribes the implementation of full time education, highlighting the extending of the time period, that is, full time schools. Also in the perspective of increasing school time, the National Education Plan (PNE), (Law n. 10.172/01), detailed the offer of Integrated Education through the establishment of goals and above all based on the Development of Education Plan (PDE) (Decree n. 6.094/07), which, in its turn, instituted the More Education Program (Interministerial Normative Bylaw n. 17/07). Therefore, this is about a strategy of the Federal Government to promote the increase of school time and the curricular organization of Integrated Education. To carry out this study, the methodology used is made up of two instruments: bibliographic survey and documental research and observation of school routine. Through these instruments legal and normative aspects of the educational legislation, official documents of the State Department of Education of Piauí (SEDUC-PI) and of the Ministry of Education (MEC) were analyzed. The bibliographic study and the analysis of the official documents permitted the conclusion that the history of Integrated Education in Brazil was always marked by a characteristic of discontinuity, due to lack of effective public policies and also that the official discourse emphasizes the inclusion of different educational actors as well as the intention of extending the school spaces and time. This constitutes possibilities for new learning and for the exercise of citizenship in a society marked by inequality.
