Percepções sobre o corpo feminino negro no ensino de Biologia: investigando proposições didáticas

Abstract

This work is part of the field of educational research that problematizes themes of social relevance present in the school pedagogical space, and seeks to understand them from a historical and sociocultural contextual perspective, which bring in themselves the aspect of post-critical studies, which propose to discuss educational practices, curricula and demands of difference inscribed in power relations, investigate issues of gender, sexuality, race, ethnicity, among others, questioning standardization and universalization. When investigating the black female body in Biology teaching, we propose to understand how the categories body, sex/gender/female and race/color are intertwined in the construction of their meaning situated in a Brazilian socio-historical and cultural context. Black Feminist Studies allow us to think about the complexity of a body affected by racism and sexism simultaneously. This work also approaches Decolonial and Cultural Studies. Thus, this research aims to analyze how the development of didactic propositions can provide opportunities for re-significations about the black female body in Biology Teaching from a deconstructionist, historical-cultural perspective of an anti-racist and anti-sexist character in which we develop through the digital technological resources Padlet and Canva. This investigation, therefore, is characterized as an action-research developed in a state school in the city of São Luís - MA, with classes of the 3rd year of EM. The theoretical-methodological actions are based on a qualitative approach with Dialogical Discourse Analysis (BRAIT, 2006; VOLOCHINOV, 2017), aiming to answer the following question: How can interventionist didactic propositions under the sociocultural perspective of the black female body provide (re)significances in Biology teaching? The corpus of analysis brings together developed questionnaires, productions by the collaborators and reports from the daily Field Blog. The results of a research practice developed in approximately one semester demonstrated the perception of sociocultural themes and, consequently, the approach of the black female body distanced from Biology teaching by teachers and students, but throughout the practices we noticed deconstructions and resignifications in the understanding of the theme, as well as the developed didactic-pedagogical practices that reveal possibilities for this, and make it possible to think of other forms of critical and reflective education of the social context. As a Technological Technical Product we have a training proposal for teachers and students materialized in an interactive Ebook with propositions for the development of didacticpedagogical practices that make it possible to re-signify the black female body in biology teaching from a deconstructionist, historical-cultural perspective with an anti-racist and antisexist character
