Geografia, terceirização, flexibilização e precarização do trabalho docente: conseqüências no ensino-aprendizagem

Abstract

This term paper (TP) aims to analyze the process of outsourcing, flexibilization and precariousness of teaching activity in public schools in the State and Municipal level of Alagoas, elaborating an outline for such analysis in Tabuleiro district, having teachers from two specific schools as study object. The circumstances that led to this outsourcing and the precariousness as consequence, both in teaching-learning as well as in the professional and personal life of the teachers. It is intended to discuss how the outsourcing of these teachers, through temporary hiring, is impacting on students’ teaching-learning. It will be evidenced, how the approval of the recent labor reform and the introduction of new rules for the outsourcing of core activities, had an impact on education. In what context the teaching activity is suffering a process of professional devaluation, through the policy of temporary hiring of the public authority. What damage does this type of temporary contract bring to the educational working class. Taking as a reference the result of empirical research, carried out with teachers who teach in both schools, it is evident how this panorama of the current situation of public education, harms the teacher in the context of his professional health, the teachinglearning and the teacher/student relationship in the school environment as well. Finally, there is an even more obscure parallel in the teaching of Geography, since the teaching in such discipline suffers pressing attacks by governmental organizations, in order to subtract critical thinking, which makes a society able to judge and reflect on his own condition.
