MARCOLINO, Suzana  and  DIAS, Adelaide Alves. ON THE CURRICULUM IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF LITERATURE. Eccos Rev. Cient. [online]. 2023, n.65, e23238.  Epub Feb 16, 2024. ISSN 1983-9278.  https://doi.org/10.5585/eccos.n65.23238.

This article presents a literature systematic review on the curriculum in Early Childhood Education, based on surveys carried out in Capes Periodicals Portal and in Annals of National Meetings of the National Association for Research in Education (ANPEd). The purpose is elaborating an overview of the academic production on this matter in the last five years (2017-2022) to clarify study problems. Exhaustive texts readings were carried out, accompanied by a form with the following indexes: (i) research problems; (ii) curriculum design; (iii) theoretical framework; and (iv) methodology. The results indicate that: research problems refer to pedagogical policies and practices; theoretical references outside pedagogy are used, such as philosophy, sociology and politics; and methodologies such as ethnography and cartography are also used. We have concluded that, in comparison with revisions results from previous periods, the interest in the Early Childhood´s curriculum grows, and in this context, critical and post-critical theories of curriculum can help deepening in the matter.
