SILVA, Regina Coeli Machado e. About Ipê Roxo in Cidade Nova: ethnographic experience and situated learning. Etnográfica [online]. 2016, vol.20, n.1, pp.119-142. ISSN 0873-6561.

The objective of this article is to present reflections on an ethnographic experience centered on learning occurring through an assumed engagement between university researchers, elementary and middle school teachers, children, adolescents and parents in a public school in Foz do Iguaçu. The ethnographic data were built during a program developed in the school and shows that, though demanded by managers of national public education policy, this experience opened reflexive conditions in our interactions, and brought ethical, political, and epistemological implications regarding learning in context. Based on the premise that learning results in a social interaction which incorporates social inequalities as well as qualifying processes and is embedded in practice, this ethnographic experience intrinsically linked diverse activities of those involved, including the school and the neighborhood as in memory and lived time, and showed these spaces as achievements inseparable from a process of symbolic fight and policy in interaction with the city.

Palabras clave : learning; educational ethnography; anthropology and education; school; childhood.
