Gênero na organização do currículo integrado dos cursos técnicos de nível médio na forma integrada

Abstract

This study investigated the presence of gender issues in the integrated mid-level building construction technical course at the Federal Institute of Amazonas (IFAM), Manaus Centro Campus (CMC). Given the scarcity of academic literature on this topic at the institution and recognizing its crucial role in integrated human development, this research aims to analyze gender issues in the integrated curriculum, focusing on the Building Construction Technical Course at IFAM – Manaus Centro Campus. By identifying and exploring opportunities for discussing gender relations in the Course Pedagogical Project (CPP), and in the understanding and conception of teachers, it is essential to develop an educational product that includes gender issues in Vocational and Technological Education (VTE). This research is qualitative in nature; data were collected through eight interviews with teachers who currently and have previously worked in the building construction technical course. Data were analyzed using Moraes and Galiazzi's (2020) Discursive Textual Analysis (DTA). The research findings revealed that gender issues manifest themselves in the institution's daily life in a variety of ways, highlighting the need for ongoing training to empower professionals to address emerging issues. In this context, we developed a guide as an Educational Product titled "Guide to Possible Worlds: Teacher Training and Gender in the IFAM Mid-Level Technician Program," for use by teachers and educators to critically reflect on these issues and develop more inclusive curricular planning. The material provides a theoretical and pedagogical foundation for ongoing training, enabling the appropriation of theories and suggested activities for addressing gender issues.
