Educação transdisciplinar: um caminho para a inovação educacional

Abstract

The article highlights the relevance of transdisciplinary education as an innovative approach to address the contemporary challenges of Basic Education in Brazil. Transdisciplinarity proposes overcoming the fragmentation of traditional teaching by integrating multiple disciplines in a holistic and creative manner, aiming for a comprehensive education for students. Based on authors such as Saturnino De La Torre and Paulo Freire, the study explores the relationship between education and creativity, emphasizing that knowledge must be constructed through individuals' social and historical experiences. The section "Curriculum and Transdisciplinarity" discusses the need to restructure school curricula, emphasizing the connection between different areas of knowledge and the development of a contextualized and practical view of learning. The transdisciplinary approach to the curriculum encourages interdisciplinary projects that integrate multiple disciplines on relevant topics, such as sustainability, enabling students to develop critical, collaborative, and innovative skills. The qualitative research revealed that implementing transdisciplinarity in teacher training is essential to improving pedagogical practices and preparing students for the challenges of the 21st century. The main objectives of the study include investigating the principles of transdisciplinary education, raising awareness of the importance of integrating disciplines, promoting the integration of mental, emotional, and physical dimensions in learning, and evaluating the impacts of this approach on the comprehensive development of students. The conclusions reinforce the importance of disseminating this approach within the educational community, highlighting its ability to develop citizens prepared to deal with the complexity of today's world and build a more innovative, resilient, humane, just, and supportive society.
