A prática pedagógica no serviço de escolarização hospitalar do estado do Piauí- Sehdepi: análise e contribuições

Abstract

The schooling process of children and adolescents who require hospitalization due to health treatment is a topic that demands reflection in both the fields of Education and Health. Understanding the interface between these two areas is essential for those who aim to develop pedagogical practices in hospital settings. In this context, the present research aimed to analyze the pedagogical practices of teachers working in the Hospital and Home Schooling Service of the State of Piauí (SEHDEPI), considering the challenges, advancements, and possibilities faced in this environment. The study is grounded in theoretical frameworks such as Fonseca (2022), Sousa (2017), Souza (2012), Santos (2021), and Silva & Amaral (2019), among others. It is a quantitative qualitative study, exploratory and descriptive in nature, based on Gil (2008) and Minayo (2001). Data were collected through a questionnaire applied to six female teachers working at SEHDEPI, in Lucídio Portella and São Marcos hospitals. The analysis followed the principles of Bardin's (2011) Content Analysis. The results revealed that, beyond content mastery, teaching in this context requires sensitivity, creativity, and mediation between knowledge and care, highlighting training gaps, structural challenges, and advancements in hospital pedagogical practices.
