Abstract

This study is part of the research line Organization and Memories of Pedagogical Spaces in Professional and Technological Education (EPT) of the Professional Master's Program in Professional and Technological Education (ProfEPT), offered by the Federal Institute Farroupilha (IFFar) – Jaguari Campus. It is also linked to Macroproject 4 – History and Memories in the Context of EPT. The research aimed to analyze how the experiences and decisions of current and former directors of education influenced the creation and development of the IFFar Jaguari Campus, from 2013 to 2024, focusing on their contributions to the institutional organization, the pedagogical structure, and the construction of the unit's educational identity. The study sought to document the main phases of the campus's development since its implementation, establishing relationships between institutional documents and the accounts of former and current directors of education. Through their memories, this study sought to understand the importance of the campus's creation and its role in the region, considering the formative and decision-making processes of the Teaching Directorate over time. The methodological approach was qualitative, exploratory, and descriptive, involving documentary research and semi-structured interviews. Data analysis was based on the Content Analysis technique. As a result, the research contributed to strengthening the institutional memory and identity of the campus by highlighting the role of the Teaching Directorate in the constitution and consolidation of the institutional trajectory. The educational product consisted of a documentary, constructed based on the narratives of the participants, valuing the history and institutional memory from the voices of the directors and teaching directors.
