Abstract

This research is configured in a case study on the use of cartographic language in the teaching of post-pandemic geography, where many of the elements contained in the textbook have data that are represented by maps and that are ignored or go unnoticed by students. The general objective was to analyze the post-pandemic geographic literacy process in a public school in Manaus. Specifically, we sought to understand the degree of knowledge of the students, regarding the fundamental elements of a map, identify how the cartographic concepts are approached and verify the means used in the classroom to understand the cartographic language. With a qualitative-quantitative approach, bibliographic survey and field research, a teacher and 6th grade II students participated in the research, in 2022. Therefore, the use of maps has been done in a retracted way, without a clarification of its properties, where the student observes what is asked and does not attentive its characteristics. The pandemic hampered the teaching-learning process, as many students returned to school without remembering what they had learned in remote education. The means used in the classroom are limited to textbook and mobile, this assists the teacher and student in the search for maps on google maps and applications. Many students do not know or do not know what the basic cartographic elements are, nor how they are used for reading and interpreting maps, which becomes extremely urgent the resumption of concepts.
