Abstract

The teacher in educational practice seeks in the diversity of resources available support in the textbook. This is of fundamental relevance in the teaching and learning process, in addition to being available to all students. However, the textbook should be used as one of the resources to be explored in the teaching community, not the only one. In this context, this research aims to analyze the role and effectiveness of the use of textbooks as a tool for learning Geography in the public education system. According to these facts, it is noted that the teacher has mediating power to select the best way to take advantage of this resource, because during the lived experiences it was possible to develop classes that used this instrument linked with other methodologies and resources that adhered to the teaching process -learning. In this way, it is the teacher's task to identify and select the best methodology for the use of this resource by contextualizing the theory with the empirical reality of the student, thus facilitating a better learning.
