SUMMARY:

The presence of Digital Information and Communication Technologies (DICTs) in school practices
demands pedagogical reconfigurations that go beyond merely instrumental use. In Geography
education, these technologies can foster more critical practices that are connected to students' lived
experiences, especially when articulated with audiovisual language. This research aims to develop a
didactic guide for the production of videocasts on the topic of globalization, aimed at 9th-grade students
in Elementary Education, based on the guidelines of the BNCC (Brazilian National Common Curricular
Base) and the DCRN (Curricular Guidelines of Rio Grande do Norte). The research problem arises from
the need to bring School Geography practices closer to students' digital experiences, addressing
challenges such as classroom distraction, overcoming the strictly instrumental use of DICTs, and the
scarcity of studies on videocasts in the field. The use of this resource is valued for its ability to integrate
sound, image, and content, promoting student protagonism and geographical reasoning. The research
adopts a qualitative approach, grounded in Minayo (2014), as it considers aspects related to meanings,
values, and social practices in the educational context. In addition, bibliographic and documentary
research were employed as methodological procedures. The theoretical and conceptual framework
includes authors who discuss the teaching of Geography and School Geography (Cavalcanti, 2003,
2012, 2024; Callai, 2005; Castrogiovanni, 2007; Costa & Ianni, 2018), educational technologies (Moran,
2007; Kenski, 2012; Silva & Canto, 2021), DICTs (Lévy, 1999; Couto, 2014; Pereira & Schuhmacher,
2021), and the use of podcasts and videocasts in education (Canavilhas, 2001; Foschini, 2018; Rosa,
2022). Regarding official documents, the study is based on the BNCC (2018) and the DCRN/EF (2018),
with a focus on the knowledge objects and skills for the 9th grade. Partial results indicate that the
videocast represents a promising pedagogical tool capable of mediating meaningful learning and
contributing to the development of consistent geographical reasoning. From this perspective, the
research also seeks to expand teachers’ methodological repertoire and pedagogical possibilities,
promoting the integration of DICTs into everyday school life while valuing student protagonism and

citizenship education.
