O ensino Religioso: Práticas e reflexões em uma escola de Parnaíba

Abstract

The present work intends to socialize the results of a research on the practice of religious teaching in a school in the city of Parnaíba-PI, having as research subject a Theologian teacher who works in the discipline. With the general objective: to analyze the epistemological character of Religious Education (RE), without the proselytizing aspect. And as a guiding question: is there a consonance with Article 33 of the LDB, which prohibits proselytism and ennobles the Brazilian religious cultural diversity, in the pedagogical practices developed by a teacher of Religious Education, whose training is equidistant from the proposals for this area? The framework it is based on documents such as the BNCC (adicionar o ano do documento), the Federal Constitution (1988) and the PCNER (Curricular Parameters of Religious Education), as well as the theoretical contributions of Caron (2013), Freire (1967), Gil (2008), Junqueira (2015), among others. In addition, we resort to a qualitative approach of the case study type, based on the considerations of Lüdke and André (1986) and the aid of the following techniques: participant observation, semi-structured interview and questionnaire. The data reveal that the bachelor of Theology was not coherent in her pedagogical practices, because she belongs to an institution that presents strong ideological conceptions and still maintains a rigid stance regarding the new laws of Guidelines and Bases for Religious Education
