Indiscipline at School: Factors that influence its Construction and Deconstruction in the Municipality of Banabuiú – Ceará – Brazil

Abstract

Indiscipline currently presents itself as an important element within the school space, since the entire school community, teachers, students, parents and management nucleus perceive its presence, often placing it as one of the aspects that hinder the teaching-learning process. The general objective of the research is to identify the elements that contribute to the construction and permanence of indiscipline within the school space. The data collection instrument was a questionnaire that resulted in the realization that the different actors in the school space still cannot understand how indiscipline is meaningfully constructed and, therefore, possible for deconstruction. The results demonstrated that, when referring to the general question of this project, we understand that teachers and school managers do not recognize themselves as prepared to work on the issue of indiscipline at school, the factors that contribute to the presence of indiscipline at school are described throughout the analysis of the results, as well as the propositions made by the segments of students, teachers and school managers. These proposals, however, cannot be, in fact, they should not be placed as a product, but always as a process, that is, in constant planning, action, reflection, replanning and action again.
