Uso das geotecnologias no ensino da Geografia

Abstract

This work aimed to present the methodologies used by teachers during their cartographic classes, in the final years of Elementary School, at a public school in the municipality of Delmiro Gouveia, in the interior of Alagoas. This research is justified from the experiences lived during the supervised internship period, which took place at the time of a pandemic, in which we verified the fragility of the classes with regard to cartography. The methodology was qualitative, with an empirical study. As a data collection instrument, we used the questionnaire with two Geography teachers and applied activities with students from the 6th and 9th grades of Elementary School. Based on the research results, we argue that the use of different teaching resources by teachers contributes to making cartography classes attractive and awakening in students a taste for learning, making them more active, participatory, critical and protagonists of their learning.
