Research Lines

The Post-Graduation Program in Education is constituted in the articulation of two lines of research: (1) History and Philosophy of Education and (2) Education, Language and Technology. These two lines, even if conserving their specificities, congregate pieces of research looking for shared objectives.

History and Philosophy of Education

Pieces of research linked to the line of History and Philosophy of Education investigate schooling and non-schooling education processes. They are analyzed through references of History and Philosophy; Historic and philosophical thematic links, which problematize, specially, questions derived from the regional context in connection with theoretical national and international discussions; studies about: (a) institutions, trajectories of teachers/students qualification, policies, practices and school (subjects, spaces, times, knowledge, syllabus, subjects and materiality), non-school, and intellectual cultures of education, crossed ,as transversal topics, by categories as ethnicity, generation, social class, and gender; and (b) philosophy, establishing relationships between philosophical and pedagogical thought in history, questioning the concepts and founding statements of philosophical systems and pedagogic theories, and also problematizing philosophical and contemporary questions of Brazilian education.
