Nuances de um projeto de extensão do curso de Pedagogia (com área de aprofundamento em Educação do Campo): um estudo de caso

Abstract

The present work arose from the author's personal interest in researching the extensionist training process, with the objective of studying to analyze the extensionist training process in the ―UFPB project in the fight against covid-19: The protagonism of women from the quilombola countryside in the solidary popular economy and the their educational activities‖. To base this research, theorists who address the extension and education of the field were used, such a Freire (1983), Jezine (2004), Caldart (2009), among other scholars of the same relevance, in addition to legal provisions. The most appropriate type of research to achieve the proposed objectives was qualitative and field research, still characterized as exploratory and descriptive. Data were collected through a mixed questionnaire and semi-structured interview. Content analysis (BARDIN, 1979) contributed to the organization, systematization, categorization and analysis of research data. The results indicate that the covid-19 pandemic had a negative influence on the extensionist training of the project participants. The extensionists stated that the project contributed to their academic and/or professional training, as a counterpoint they pointed out the difficulties encountered due to social isolation, such as triggering anxiety and depression crises, having to perform tasks in a remote format.
