RURAL SCHOOLS: A LOOK AT LEGISLATION AND PRACTICES IMPLEMENTED IN PHYSICS TEACHING

ABSTRACT:

With the goal of investigating the elements that characterize Physics Teaching in rural schools, we conducted a research of qualitative nature through bibliographic survey in the minutes from the main events in the area of Sciences/Physics Education. Data analysis was guided by Content Analysis and results presented in two thematic axes: (i) Pedagogy of Alternating and Agricultural Family Schools; and (ii) Didactic-methodological strategies for teaching Science/Physics in rural schools. The results indicate an evolution after considering the construction of a specific policy for rural schools during these last years. However, the number of works that refer to the practices developed in rural high schools, more specifically in Physics classes, is still small.
