Corpos, gêneros, sexualidades e relações étnico-racionais na educação

Abstract

Considering that the region in which UNIPAMPA is inserted lacks ongoing training for teachers, we have developed the Extension Course Bodies, genders, sexualities, ethnic-racial relations: problematizing cross-cutting themes in the Basic Education curriculum resulting from the previous Project mentioned. The objective of this course was to provide the basic education teachers of the public network and the academics of the degrees in Natural Sciences and Physical Education with an academic-professional education related to the issues of body, gender , sexuality, ethnic-racial relations and 6 professional identity, making use of the Moodle platform. Structured in two concomitant stages, presential and distance, the course was developed in five modules. Each module addressed a specific theme, Module I: Bodies, Module II: Genres, Module III: Sexualities, Module IV: Ethnic-racial relations and Module V: Being and becoming a teacher: professional identity. In proposing the Course in modules we did not intend to fragment the themes, because we understand that both are intertwined with each other and in the perspective of being and becoming a teacher. Another action foreseen in said Project was the construction of a critical-reflexive theoretical framework on the themes of bodies, genders, sexualities, ethnic-racial relations and teacher identity, in order to contribute to the deepening and appropriation of these themes by the teachers (s) and academic (s) of the University and by the teachers of Basic Education. For this purpose, this book brings together several articles by national authors who were specially invited to discuss the themes of bodies, genders, sexualities, ethnic-racial relations and teacher identity in the context of Basic and Higher Education and thus socialize their productions.
