Ensino de História e gênero: entre a construção do conhecimento e a pesquisa

Abstract

The objective of this article is to raise some questions regarding the issue of gender and history teaching, understood as a field under construction. Therefore, we seek to present the relationship between history teaching and contemporary demands for the insertion of new subjects and new forms of sexuality in the social sphere. Furthermore, we seek to demonstrate in a discursive way, the importance of new epistemologies for teaching history, such as decoloniality, whose main objective is to contribute to the critical formation of students, based on the concept of an intellectual teacher. This can be a starting point for further development of the relationship between history teaching and gender and, also, for the construction of knowledge related to the area of ​​history teaching. To this end, a bibliographical survey and problematization were sought, with the aim of contributing to debates around a field under construction. We understand that the teaching of History and its relationship with the genre is not yet consolidated and we agree with several authors on the need to consolidate the field in light of the educational demands of the 21st century.
