A EJA e a Educação do Campo: um estudo bibliográfico

Abstract

The present study aims to carry out a theoretical study, situating the Education of Young and Adults in the context of Field Education. It is intended here, with the same, to highlight the specificities of the EJA, highlighting how its characteristics are considered in the studies and writings that discuss its offer in the scope of Field Education. From the methodological point of view, the research is qualitative and of a bibliographic type (LUDKE; ANDRÉ, 1986; TRIVIÑOS, 1988; MINAYO, 2001), as we seek to establish the conceptions and meanings involved in the theoretical debate around Education of Youth and Adults and Field Education, which is defined as a modality of elementary education and high school, which provides the opportunity for many people who did not have access to school at the time due, for young people and adults to start and/or continue their studies. In relation to Field Education, it is highlighted in this study as a phenomenon of the current Brazilian reality understood in the field of praxis and considering the moment and the historical context in which it originated. (CALDART, 2002).The discussion about the conception of learning as mere transmission and acquisition of knowledge occupied a large part of the history of youth and adult education and of the pedagogy of the field.
