ABSTRACT
This work is an analytical critic to the pedagogical practice called Interdisciplinary
through theme generation (Interdisciplinate, via Tema-Gerador) developed by the
“hope School” in São Paulo´s Municipal Primary School System. It analyze the work
developed under Freire´s Administration in which a action research took place in
order to collect data for the planning of the “new curriculum”. The data collection,
documentation and the way research was process are placed in amplified lenses
revealing a lack of engagement from the participants involved which difficulted a
cultural sensible change in the curriculum. The study points out through a
comparison, ways in which the ethnography research approach could be useful to
better inform this type of data collecting; bringing more meaning for the participation
from the individuals involved and for the research team. Finally, it argue that to
interpret the pedagogical practice researchers and participants has to be involved in
collaboration, mutual sheering of meaning, and effective commitment for change.
Key words: Interdisciplinary; Theme generation; Ethnography research.
