THE DEGREE IN HISTORY TEACHING AND THE 10.639/03 STATUTE - TRAINING PATHS TO DEAL WITH DIFFERENCE?

ABSTRACT:

The article deals with the formation of History teachers over the last fifteen years, considering the legislation that reformulates the perspective of Brazilian History in Basic Education’s curricula. National guidelines for education in ethnic-racial relations bring about changes in the training paths, which develops substantive changes in the model usually adopted for teacher formation in History. Therefore, the article analyzes the impact of such changes, parting from the curricular paths of courses offered by federal universities in ten units of the federation. From the consideration of such trajectories, we intend to analyze the space destined for ethnic-racial relations formation and to deal with difference. We argue that the existing gaps related to the implementation of the basic statute are due to the way in which teacher formation is conceived and assumed in the curriculum paths studied.
