Rolé na Penha: uma experiência de memória e história local no ensino de história em uma escola municipal na Vila Cruzeiro - RJ

Abstract

The educational action called Rolé na Penha arises from a process of reinvention, revitalization and restart of the Municipal School Bernardo de Vasconcelos, in Vila Cruzeiro, in the district of Penha, in Rio de Janeiro. Based on the search for a job with memory and local history, Rolé da Penha was born in an attempt to rescue and / or awaken belonging in the students of that school unit in their relations with the local community where they live and, in general, they were born and are developing. The general objective of the work is to analyze the impacts of the Rolé na Penha Project on the construction and reflection of students on memory, recognition, legitimation and appropriation of places of memory. The specific objective is to investigate how this project can impact history learning and good pedagogical performance. The problems involved in the research can be identified as follows: how does this project survive even without sponsorship, and continue despite such violence that the favelas and residents of the Penha neighborhood have suffered? What factors lead students to participate and remain in the Project? The methodologies chosen for the development and collection of research data were: action research, based on the concept of memory and bibliographic research for the production of the theoretical basis. The result obtained shows that Rolé da Penha served its pedagogical objectives as a promoter of local memory in the students involved, knowledge of them about the local history of Vila Cruzeiro - Penha, Rio de Janeiro - and also of the sense of belonging of these students to the neighborhood and the city where this student is present.
