The study is of a qualitative nature. The approach was based on action research, with the research locus at School Impact Guaraí and the Krahô Indigenous Village. Conversation circles was the enabling strategy for dialogue and consequent listening to students, a 3ª grade high school class, which participated in the research. In addition to this dialogue, the research also included bibliographic sources and iconography of the Krahô peoples available on the socio-environmental website. As a result of the research, I propose an interactive manual for a virtual exhibition on indigenous history and culture, which can be used by both indigenous and non-indigenous teachers, especially in history classes.
