Education / O contexto educacional, mais precisamente o escolar, tem sido palco de diversas discussões, tanto no que concerne às metodologias de trabalho, didática e políticas públicas, quanto em relação aos sujeitos que compõem tal espaço sendo observado que, atualmente, muitas são as diferenças no que tange às características dos estudantes que o frequentam. Neste sentido, a presente interlocução científica apresenta como temática de investigação crianças índigo e com altas habilidades/superdotação no contexto escolar, tendo em vista as características peculiares apresentadas por estes sujeitos. Esta investigação teve como objetivo geral investigar quais as aproximações e distanciamentos no processo de escolarização dos estudantes índigo e com altas habilidades/superdotação. Como objetivos específicos delineou-se: elaborar um elenco de características da criança índigo, direcionado ao contexto escolar, analisar como os professores percebem as características índigo e de altas habilidades/superdotação, evidentes no contexto escolar e compreender como as relações das características índigo e de altas habilidades/superdotação interferem no processo de escolarização destes sujeitos. Para tanto, a metodologia desta pesquisa configura-se como uma abordagem qualitativa, pois considerando o tema relativamente pouco explorado utilizou-se diferentes instrumentos de coleta de dados. A justificativa desta investigação está em não apenas buscar uma nova categorização de sujeitos ou comportamentos, mas na intenção de procurar novos conhecimentos que possam auxiliar na transformação da educação atual, ainda pautada em princípios de normalização do sujeito. A análise da investigação contou com a apreciação do elenco de características índigo, logo após com a análise das entrevistas concedidas pelas professoras a cerca das características de seus estudantes. Na discussão foram levantadas as aproximações a respeito das características e indicadores percebidos, culminando na percepção de que há um distanciamento na discussão do plano da espiritualidade, caraterística amplamente descrita pelo referencial teórico como elemento integrante das características índigo e importante para compreensão total do sujeito, bem como para atender a demanda que a sociedade atual necessita.

The motivation for this study was to challenge the Indigo Child phenomenon and to view it from a Christian perspective. Throughout the study the focus was on the researcher's opinion of Christianity, supported by other authors and the Bible. The assumption of the study was that Indigo Children were ordinary children whose behaviour was formed and reinforced by societal and parental influences and guidance. The purpose of the study was to set up guidelines for parents and caretakers in order to facilitate and recommend strategic action regarding the management of these children. Guidelines were set up by using a combination of Gestalt philosophy, a Christian perspective and existing guidelines for so-called Indigo Children. For the purpose of this study Thomas's developmental research and utilization model was applied to the intervention research approach. Semi-structured interviews were used in order to gain information regarding parental styles. The information gained was combined with information found in literature in order to set up guidelines for parents. / Social Work / M.Diac. (Play Therapy)
