TURRA DIAZ, Omar Rolando. A atualidade do livro didático como recurso curricular. Linhas Críticas [online]. 2011, vol.17, n.34, pp.609-624. ISSN 1981-0431.

It is a remarkable fact that the long history of the school textbook as an educational resource hasn’t affected its validity. On the contrary, over the first decade of the XXI century, its relevance in the pedagogical processes tends to increase, as in case of the Chilean educational system. Therefore, it’s relevance as an educational resource and the complex dimensions implied by its presence in the classroom make of it a phenomenon of renewed interest for research and reflection. It is possible to establish many relationships between this resource and the curriculum, as a cultural and pedagogical artifact. It is viewed here from a critical perspective, in its roles as a device that translates the official curriculum, as a didactical material for teachers, and as a source of learning for students.

Keywords : Textbooks; Curriculum; Curricular Resource.
