PUBLIC SCHOOL AND THE CURRICULUM AS EVERYDAY CREATION: THE VISIBILIZATION OF HEALTH POLICIESPRACTICES

Abstract

The present study has its genesis in a professional master’s dissertation in the fields of health and environment and characterizes a didactic proposal to the health discussion in Youth and Adult Education (EJA). This pedagogical proposition was applied in a public school in the countryside of Rio de Janeiro and aimed to make visible the social experiences developed with the students of a public school from the municipal education system of Volta Redonda – RJ. The methodological scope was developed through Daily Studies, with talking circles as its main dynamic (instrument) to the comprehension of the subjects’paths in their learning / teaching trajectory. The didactic sequence was developed utilizing six classes, making it possible the acquisition of the following results: a) promotion of a dialogical space and epistemological conflict among the students; b) the talking circle propitiated the horizontalization of the knowledge brought to the school; going through the theoretical articles suggested, the videos, the images taken from the social network, the pictures used by the students, the individual and collective experiences of the students; c) The educative practice allowed the construction of knowledge in subjective networks, promoting the rupture with the Knowledge hierarchization and valuing the diversity of perspectives and ways of comprehension of the world.
