Análise da formação do/a docente de ensino religioso nas unidades de ensino fundamental de Vila Velha - ES

Abstract

With both fundamental and field study nature, this research will aim to understand the legislation on teacher qualification and training for Religious Education (RE) in schools in the municipality of Vila Velha-ES, Brazil. The study will begin by analyzing the laws of national scope: Federal Constitutions, Law of Directives, and Bases of Education (LDB). Supplementary documents will also be studied: National Curricular Parameters for Religious Education (PCNER) and National Common Curricular Base (BNCC), which regulate the didactic methods of the RE discipline in educational institutions. Since the Colonial Period, RE in public institutions has been surrounded by gaps, lack of definitions, and legal omissions of States and municipalities, especially when it comes to the admission of teachers and the selection of the learning contents. There is also a dispute between the State and the Church over the management of the discipline in public schools. Furthermore, this research will address the qualification and training of teachers to teach RE, both nationally and in the municipality of Vila Velha-ES. The qualification and training of teachers on the national scene will be addressed, emphasizing that, due to the gradual recognition of the RE as a curricular component of Brazilian public schools, this research will try to verify if there was an increase in the qualification requirement of teachers. Then, the RE scenario in the municipality of Vila Velha-ES will be presented. Finally, field research will be carried out, and its result will present an analysis of the training of teachers and pedagogues responsible for RE in the municipality of Vila Velha-ES.
