Summary: | This study presents an analysis of the implementation and Physics educational content from two new “curriculum proposals” for High School, that were adopted by the Public School System in the state of São Paulo from 2007 to 2010. On the part of the State Government of São Paulo the curricular proposal São Paulo Faz Escola was designed, while the Federal Government distributed Physics textbooks from PNLEM 2007. The analysis is developed from the perspective of the French sociological theorist Guy Debord, based on the concept of “Society of the Spectacle”, and from the perspective of the Brazilian political-pedagogical educator Paulo Freire. This paper points out the main ideas and results emerged from the master's thesis defended in 2011 by the author. This research concludes that part of the implementation and part of the physics educational content in these new curriculum proposals follow the logic of the Spectacle, in which content and actions are publicized as dialogical, although they are implemented authoritatively. |
