Reorganização curricular a partir de uma perspectiva ecotranscomplexa

Curricular re-organization from a ecotranscomplex perspective

Abstract

In the face of ecological, social, political, and epistemological crises along the 21st century, it is urgent to rethink curricular organization towards approaches that are more integrating and sensitive to the complexity of today´s work. This paper proposes the concept of Ecotranscomplex Curriculum, underpinned by Edgar Morin´s complex thinking, by Basarb Nicolescu´s transdisciplinarity, and by Gaston Pineau´s ecoformation. The research, of qualitative nature and taking a theoretical-propositional view, in based on critical bibliographical review which combines contributions from authors who point to paradigms alternative to the Cartesian-linear reasoning. Ecotranscomplex Curriculum comes forward as an epistemological and pedagogical matrix seeking to reconnect knowledge, integrate cognitive, ethical, emotional, spiritual and ecological dimensions, by also providing formation committed to the sustainability of life. By also including inputs from the ecosystemic paradigm and transcomplex education, the proposal turns out to be an innovating horizon to reorganize the curriculum, in line with the Sustainable Development Goals and the challenge of nurturing a planetary citizenry. Conclusion is that such curricular perspective expands the understanding that education is an experience of life, care, and transformation capable of overcoming disciplinary fragmentation and respond to current civilizational urgencies.
