O papel da biblioteca O. G. Rego de Carvalho no desenvolvimento de projetos pedagógicos do Colégio Estadual Zacarias de Góis – Liceu Piauiense

Abstract

This study analyses which is the role of Library O. G. Rego de Carvalho in the development of pedagogical projects from Colégio Estadual Zacarias de Góis – Liceu Piauiense. Located in Teresina – Piauí, this teaching institution develops projects since 2010, fomented by actions from State Secretary of Education. The Pedagogy of Projects is a teaching and learning conception which intends to make students become authors of their own building process and knowledge, recognizing this autonomy. In this sense, the school library shows itself as a space able to provide information and work as a support for the processes of teaching and learning, developing abilities and allowing success on student’s growing. The subjects presented in this study are School Education, Pedagogy of Projects and School Library as a support for teacher activities. The data obtained about Library O. G. Rego de Carvalho focus on its physical space, its participation in school activities as the pedagogical projects and the aspects of implementing the Pedagogy of Projects in the activities developed by the teachers at Liceu Piauiense. This survey is classified as exploratory. The collection of data consisted in interviews, in loco visits, besides bibliographical and documental research. From the inquiry we conclude that the Library, despite the deficiencies of the professional librarian and of a collection that supports all informational necessities, still shows itself as an essential part in the development of teachers’ projects and in the improvement of school teaching.
