Abstract

In this article, we discuss the importance of fieldwork in the development of teaching-learning processes in geography in basic education and in higher education. For this, we analyze two experiments, focusing on the analysis of the mediation performed by the field notebooks in this process. The first one refers to the work done with classes of Elementary and Middle School in the School of Application of the School of Education of USP. The second one deals with fieldwork carried out in the discipline of Regional Geography of Brazil I - Sul, of the Department of Geography of USP. The analysis was built from the follow-up of the different stages of elaboration and execution of the field works, discussing and problematizing the senses of the field notebooks in each of them. At the end of the research, it was possible to perceive the importance of the field notebook in the analyzed works, since, constructed in a collective and collaborative way, they reinforce the interdisciplinary character of knowledge and the educational process. Moreover, in the experience developed in higher education, it was possible to verify the importance of future teachers to appropriate this methodology so that they can defend it, both politically and epistemologically, in basic education.
