Resumo

This article presents an overview of School Cartography in Brazil, demonstrating how academic research in the area has influenced official documents proposed by the Ministry of Education, the teaching of Cartography in Basic Education, and the curricula of undergraduate courses in Geography. The purpose of this study is to understand the role of cartography in the teaching of geography and how learning through maps has contributed more intensively to the formation of Brazilian citizens from the 1990s onward, at the same time that cartography-related content has become more and more present in schools at the primary level in Brazil, and the text discusses this process. It also presents the background of the Tactile Cartography in Brazil, discussing the importance of reflecting the process of adapting graphic/visual representations to tactile representations, in the context of Cartographic Communication and its contribution to the teaching of cartography from an inclusive perspective.
