Implementação dos temas contemporâneos transversais: percepções de professores municipais

Abstract

Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) specifies the competences and abilities to be developed in Brazilian Schools’ students throughout basic education and the Contemporary Cross-cutting Themes (TCTs) to be included in the pedagogical practices, in order to prepare them for the exercise of citizenship and acting in society. In this perspective, this study aims to investigate the perception of municipal teachers regarding the challenges and difficulties in implementing the BNCC and TCTs. For that, a questionnaire was applied to teachers from some towns of Rio Grande do Sul, composed of questions to identify the profile of the respondents and to recognize the teachers' perception about the implementation. It was used descriptive data analysis as a technique. Most of the interviewees consider the BNCC’s changes good for education, but there are difficulties to realize them in the classroom. TCTs are being applied in classes, even though most teachers have not received training about the subject. It is essential to promote public policies by municipal education systems, to overcome the difficulties highlighted and effectively comply what legislation provides.
