Indigenous education in Mato Grosso do Sul during pandemics: estrategies, difficulties and possibilities

Abstract

The objective of this text is to develop a brief description of pedagogical and organizational strategies adopted by Indigenous Schools from Mato Grosso do Sul, which belong to State Education System from MS, during pandemics. Furthermore, we intend to identify the main personal and professional difficulties faced by managers of such schools and consider their evaluations of this process. For this, we rely on studies from Educational Politics, History (MAGALHÃES, 2020) and Education (REIMERS & SCHLEICHER, 2020). This is an applied research, with a qualitative and quantitative approach and exploratory and descriptive objectives. Participants of the research are managers of the schools considered. Among the results found, we can highlight the acting of schools beyond classroom and curriculum, as well as the concerns and disposition of everyone to reelaborate continuously school calendar as an attempt to reduce the negative impacts over students and teachers.
