O conceito de cidadania nos livros didáticos da área de Ciências Humanas e Sociais Aplicadas (CHSA).

Abstract

Discussions about citizenship during Basic Education training are fundamental to guide the daily citizenship practices of young students, especially in the High School stage. This qualitative methods work is based on the following question: How citizenship is being approached and discussed in textbooks in the Area of Applied Human and Social Sciences (CHSA) in a Collection approved in the National Book and Teaching Material Program (PNLD) in 2021, and how does this approach contribute to the student’s citizenship training at this stage of education? In this sense, this work's main objective is to investigate and analyze how citizenship is discussed in textbooks in the CHSA Area of the Ser Protagonista Collection. We sought to identify the main approaches used in discussing the topic and verify whether they meet the educational and social needs of high school students. The methodological procedures used in this research are based on the analysis of the following documents: the 2021 National Book and Teaching Material Program Guide (PNLD), the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) and the Ser Protagonista Collection, authored by Janaina Tiosse by Oliveira Corrêa Cilli, Bianca Barbagallo Zucchi, Valéria Aparecida Vaz da Silva and Flávio Manzatto de Souza, approved in PNLD 2021. We also analyzed books and articles that deal with the topic in question. The approaches used in this work are fundamental for teaching the curricular components that make up the CHSA Area: Philosophy, Geography, History and Sociology, especially for teaching Geography, considering that one of the goals of this discipline is to enable the student to understand the space in which he lives to act in it as a citizen. The analysis carried out indicates that citizenship is satisfactorily addressed in the textbooks of the Ser Protagonista Collection of the CHSA Area. The theme is worked on continuously throughout the six Volumes of the aforementioned Collection, highlighting essential knowledge, attitudes and values to awaken the critical consciousness of high school students and help them understand the society in which they are inserted and to be active participants in it.
