Interdisciplinaridade nos currículos e nas avaliações educacionais: um estudo a partir da análise de questões vestibulares

Abstract

The present work reports an initial research on interdisciplinarity, its concepts, its history in Brazil, its presence in didactic books and in science teaching at the secondary level and its features in the USP entrance exams, FUVEST, in the years 2019 and 2020. Interdisciplinarity is a very important tool to reflect and apply the combination of two or more areas of knowledge, especially among the different areas of science, for the construction of meaningful knowledge in order to have a more critical performance of citizens in society and in the world of work. The study of the concept, the brief overviewand the analysis of the interdisciplinary traits reveal how essential this tool is to think about current education. Even though there is resistance to develop a less compartmentalized and traditional education, the traits of interdisciplinarity reveal important steps towards a more interdisciplinary education based on reflections and processes that involve several areas of knowledge for a more solid and more meaningful education for society and for the world of work.
