Os PCN de matemática do ensino fundamental: um exame sobre o processo de elaboração e a divulgação em Sergipe

Abstract

This work presents the results of a research it had as objective to investigate the National Curricular Parameters - Mathematics PCN of the last two cycles of Primary Education in the period from 1996-2008, as regards the process of preparing and performed courses, for the dissemination of PCN in Sergipe it s offered by members of the technical team of the State Department of Education Sport and Leisure of Sergipe - SEED. Firstly were performed readings about curriculum from authors such as Sacristan (1998), Goodson (1995), Veiga Neto (2002) and Silva (2009), to understand the extent which the PCN can or cannot be categorized in relation to theories of curriculum. And from these analyses sources collected were taken as reference D Ambrosio (1989) and Mendes (2009) and for methodology trends, Valente (2007) for sources treatments. Semistructured interviews were also realized, especially made with Ruy Cesar Pietropaolo, one of the participants in the process of elaboration about initial and final version about PCN Mathematics. Even sources were taken as the opinions on the preliminary version of the PCN, the curriculum developed by Sergipian, planning teaching, ministering record, evaluation form and certificate courses about PCN, belonging to the archival Center Personal Qualification Prof. Antonio Garcia Filho. From these sources collected and examined, It‟s possible to include Sergipe in the map of the states with produced opinions on the preliminary version of the PCN, and declare that as it happened in other states, in Sergipe there was a Mathematics Curriculum Proposal dated 1995 with similar themes inserted in the PCN, as example: The problem solving and mathematical games. It was found that during almost a decade there was training courses with involved these and other issues that have gained force prescriptive orientation from the publication of the parameters. Finally, it was found during the stage of dissemination of topics related to PCN, there was a process of adaptation from the understanding that trainers have had in relation to: for example, the organization of content about the use of resources and methodologies. And probably because of that, the game was one of the most prominent thematic featured in the courses.
