Experimentos geográficos em educação: cartografia de um vídeo-mapa com fronteiras

Abstract

This work proposes to investigate the use of audiovisual language in videos produced by students of the state education public on the city of Ponta Porã (MS), as a video-map, as a cartographic intensifying focused on the teaching of Geography. We agreed of representations that they have on the border, or boundaries (frontiers), since they reside in an international boundary location between Brazil and Paraguay, which reinforces perceptions, thoughts, and experiences on the concept of frontiers. The experiment produced fifteen videos, resulting in a final video: Geographical investigation for teaching: a video-map with boundaries. The investigations are oriented in presenting the video-map as a cartographic power aimed at teaching, identifying the conceptions, understandings and representations that the students filmed about the frontier (s), and their erasures and/or fissures presented in the images and their speeches. Sometimes reproducing an official perception of the state, or demonstrating the conceptual confusion of experiencing the inter-place of the daily life of the locality. We seek among the images and speeches associations between concepts proposed by authors such as Doreen Massey, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, among others, who refer us to treating the experiment as a language that dialogues with geographic discourse, geography teaching and student territorialities in places that experience life.
