Práticas da Tecnologia de Gestão Educacional aplicadas na educação integral em tempo integral nos Centros Educa Mais da rede pública de Ensino Estadual do Maranhão

Abstract

The research entitled “Management Practices Applied in Full-Time Integral Education in the Centros Educa Mais of Maranhão public school system” is part of the Research Line in Educational and School Management of the Graduate Program in Education (PPGE/UEMA). The central research question guiding this study is whether the Educational Management Technology (EMT) implemented in the Centros Educa Mais is articulated, at the level of management practices, with the dimensions of integral education and democratic management. The main objective is to analyze, within the scope of management practices and in light of the dimensions of integral education and democratic management, the Educational Management Technology model implemented in the Centros Educa Mais. The specific objectives include analyzing the management practices regulated in the management guidelines of the Maranhão State Department of Education in light of the concepts of integral education and democratic management; understanding the school community’s perception regarding the implemented management practices and their implications for the development of integral education; examining school satisfaction concerning the school environment, especially with regard to management actions; and developing a technical-technological product related to school and educational management according to the demands of the school communities. The theoretical framework of the research is supported by authors such as Adrião (2016), Laval (2019), Dourado (2002), Saviani (2003) Minayo (2010), Soares (2014), Peroni (2016), Frigotto (2018), Freitas (2021), Paro (2022), Texeira (2007), among others. The study adopts the perspective of historical-dialectical materialism, seeking to understand the object of study in its totality, historicity, contradictions, and mediations, as proposed by Tozzoni (2020). It employs a mixedmethods (quantitative-qualitative) research approach, using semi-structured interviews as the data collection technique and content analysis as the method for data analysis. Data collection will take place in one Centros Educa Mais located in the metropolitan region of São Luís, Maranhão, with the participation of two school administrators, three teachers, and three students from the selected school. As a result, it was possible to observe that the Educational Management Technology (TGE) strengthens organizational aspects within the school environment, and that the Centros Educa Mais receive a positive evaluation from the school community regarding the model. However, comprehensive (omnilateral) human development is not fully contemplated in management and school practices, which maintains the traditional pattern of education. This reveals a managerial model of governance that requires the expansion of democratic management and participatory practices
