PECHINCHA, Mônica Thereza Soares. Performance and education: a reflection of krahô teachers about the inclusion of rites and songs in practices of indigenous education. Rev. Inter Ação [online]. 2016, vol.41, n.2, pp.373-398. ISSN 0101-7136. https://doi.org/10.5216/ia.v41i2.41003.
Abstract:
In order to contribute to the discussion of indigenous education, this article comments the Krahô teacher's reflection about incorporating their rituals and songs - axial actions in their culture - in their schools and in the very construction of their pedagogics projects. The text briefly presents stylistic and cosmological aspects of their performances and its connection with what we call "nature" and "supernatural". The analysis is based on observations and reflections joint with Krahô teachers in the context of their academic studies in intercultural education in the Federal University of Goiás.
