SUMMARY:

In recent decades, discussions and practices around the act of mapping have gained new perspectives that explore the everyday practices of individuals and communities that produce and experience space. These new perspectives also influenced the teaching of cartography in schools, which was previously focused only on training students as critical readers of cartographic products. Based on studies by Cavalcanti (2009), Acselrad (2008, 2010, 2013), Almeida (2010), Richter (2010, 2011), Carvalho (2016), Seemann and Carvalho (2017), Gomes (2017), among others , we reflect on how new cartographic practices – anchored in mapping as a process, whose main agents are individuals and communities that produce territories and their territorialities – can be a resource with the potential to re-signify cartography teaching and expand its insertion in schools . With this look, we aim to elaborate a didactic guide that guides high school geography teachers to the practice of new cartographic practices, exploring them as a methodology for teaching geography. The “Didactic guide: for a citizen cartography at school” is the result of extensive instigation and discussion based on the aforementioned authors, in addition to official documents on education, such as the BNCC (2018) and the Curricular References for Secondary Education in Tocantins ( 2022), and interviews with geography teachers from state public high schools located in the municipality of Araguaína, Tocantins. This educational product provides teachers with knowledge and teaching strategies that explore the representations of space experienced and conceived by students, allowing teachers and students to become familiar with the object of study. Therefore, the expansion of new cartographic practices as a methodological learning strategy can become the basis for the formation of a spatial awareness and, consequently, of geographic reasoning, by allowing an active role of both the teacher and the student in carrying out the mapping.
