A reformulação do projeto pedagógico do Curso Técnico em Agropecuária do Instituto Federal do Triângulo Mineiro Câmpus Uberlândia: possibilidades e desafios de articulação

Abstract

The goal of this research was to contribute to the reformulation of the Pedagogical Project of the Technical Course in Agriculture of the Federal Institute of Triângulo Mineiro – Uberlândia Campus in the year of 2011. For that, we used the methodology of the participant research, with a qualitative approach that was able to face the challenge of involving all those responsible for this course, both teachers and education specialists during the development of this work. The intention is that the new Pedagogic Project can finally make the articulation between the professional education and the general education (High School) possible, and also provide the necessary update in the curriculum. The debates were based on the legislation for the Basic and Professional Education, and on scientific articles and texts that study the interdisciplinary and the transdisciplinarity. The research instruments included semi-structured questionnaires addressed to the students and teachers, folders of graduated student´s internship and documents posted on Google Docs. As a result of the process, even with the curriculum maintaining the disciplinary structure, we were able to motivate teachers to glimpse numerous possibilities of articulation through interdisciplinary and trandisciplinarity activities, through the completion of projects, already in the first half of 2012
