Abstract

SILVA, Maria Vieira. A organização do trabalho escolar em foco: os limites das heranças anti- democráticas e as potencialidades dos processos participativos. Educ. Teoria Prática [online]. 2011, vol.21, n.38, pp.147-167. ISSN 1981-8106.

Historically, democratic and participatory processes in the Brazilian society, and specifically in school, have been permeated by intermittences, weaknesses and resistances caused by multiple determinations. The text focuses on aspects concerning the organization of education work through two lines of analysis: the first angle refers to the social constructs of structural and organic nature linked to relations of power and anti-democratic practices of the society in general. The second angle reference to a kind of ethnographic research, conducted within a public school in the Minas Gerais state. We seek to grasp the challenges on building practices and strategies in support of the participatory processes of the school community in the pedagogic project design and in the operation of the school board. We propose, with these analyses, to contribute with reflections on the status of teachers, as a subject, in the school organization through connections with work activities related to their everyday practice.

Keywords : School Management; School Democracy; Project Political- Educational; School Board.
