Reformas educacionais e curriculares no Brasil no início dos anos 1970: impactos do projeto educacional no ensino de geografia em Uberlândia-MG

Abstract

The teaching of Geography has been through significant periods of change in Brazil. One of those periods, involving changes in School Geography, was the Military Regimen in Brazil (1964-1985). Understanding this period and the change in Geography curriculum, the records, practices and teacher's feelings reveals how this happened. Therefore, this qualitative research, of exploratory nature and with an analytical-descriptive point of view, provides a space of speech for historical subjects, through interviews and with the analysis of the class diary records made at that time. Our interviewees allow us to think about the historical moment and the nuances of the school and the classrooms. Thus, besides proposing measures for further research, we conclude that the Military Regimen used legislation to validate its acts and to try to control the teachers' practices through the official curriculum.
