Esta pesquisa pretendeu diagnosticar como as geotecnologias vêm sendoveiculadas no sistema educacional, especialmente no Ensino Médio, na disciplina de Geografia. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa de caráter teórico-prático. Para isso, realizase um estudo em duas escolas, sendo uma da rede estadual e a outra da rede privada deensino. Na metodologia, utilizou-se como ferramenta a aplicação de um questionário semiestruturado, respondido pelos alunos da terceira série do Ensino Médio da cidade de Maringá, Estado do Paraná. Na análise dos dados, concluiu-se que a Geotecnologia, nos últimos anos, vem sendo mais divulgada e conhecida, porém pouco utilizada no ensino da disciplina de Geografia. Constata-se que seu uso restringe-se mais ao software do Google Earth, todavia o seu acesso não acontece no espaço escolar. Dessa maneira, verifica-se que a escola oferece os computadores, mas faltam estrutura e adequação para o uso do SIG (GIS)e do Google Earth, além de outros equipamentos, como o GPS. Percebe-se que a escola e os professores de Geografia podem estreitar essa relação, contribuindo para a inserção tecnológica e melhoria da qualidade do ensino, facilitando a compreensão das complexidades do espaço habitado junto aos alunos, à escola e à sociedade.This research aims at diagnosing how Geotechnology has been used in the Educational System, especially in teaching geography in high school. This is a qualitative research of a theoretical-practicalcharacter. Thus, a comparative study was carried out at two different schools – one public and the other a private high school. A semi-structured questionnaire, answered by students attending the third year of high school in Maringá, Paraná State, was used as amethodological tool. Results derived from data analysis pointed out that Geotechnology has been widespread and widely known in the last years; however, such technologies have hardly ever been used in the current teaching of geography in high school. It was verifiedthat, although computers are available at the investigated schools, the use of computers is limited to Google Earth software, whose access does not happen in the school space. Therefore, it is observed that the school offers the computers, but there is a lack of structureand adequacy for using systems such as SIG (GIS), Google Earth, and other equipments, such as GPS for example. It was concluded that the school and te geography teachers may improve that relationship, contributing to the insertion of technology and to the improvement in the quality of teaching, thus enabling a better understanding of thecomplexities of the inhabited space on the part of students, the school and society. |
