O livro didático de história e suas contribuições na construção do conhecimento do estudante à luz da base nacional comum curricular

Abstract

This Course Conclusion Work consists of a qualitative analysis of the textbook collection Araribá Conecta: History, designed for the final years of Elementary School (6th to 9th grade), aiming to understand how this collection constructs historical narratives and its contributions to the development of students' historical thinking in light of the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC). Regarding methodology, the research was qualitative, characterized as a literature review associated with a documentary study, based on analytical categories such as source problematization, use of primary sources, narrative framing, visual resources, epistemic activities, and alignment with the BNCC. Among the most important results, we highlight: the textbook not only reflects the curriculum but consolidates and materializes it, acting as the material arm of curricular centralization policies such as the BNCC; the analyzed collection shows advances in diversifying sources and images, but a structure that prioritizes passive transmission of information over effective problematization still prevails. It is concluded that the construction of historical knowledge in the school context depends largely on the approaches present in textbooks, and that the analytical framework developed can serve as a tool for teacher mediation.
