Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA): desafios e perspectivas para a inclusão digital humanizada

Abstract

This work aims to understand the process of digital inclusion in adult and youth education, focusing on the promotion of inclusive and accessible educational practices. Adult and Youth Education (AYE) is a modality of basic education that encompasses a diverse population with specific educational needs and demands. In this context, digital inclusion emerges as a right to promote access to education, equal opportunities, and active participation of students in the information society. The study seeks to answer the following questions: given the increasing adoption of hybrid teaching in adult and youth education, what are the main challenges faced by AYE regarding digital inclusion, and how can effective strategies be developed to promote a humanized digital inclusion in this teaching modality? The topic is relevant as the process of digital inclusion in AYE presents complex challenges related to both access to technologies and the development of digital skills necessary for their effective use. Furthermore, the discussion on the humanization of digital inclusion is necessary to ensure that pedagogical practices are aligned with the principles of respect for diversity, intercultural dialogue, and the promotion of human rights. Thus, the study proposes a critical reflection on the challenges and prospects of digital inclusion in AYE, from a humanized perspective that values diversity, autonomy, and active participation of students in the educational process. Additionally, it seeks to contribute to the development of pedagogical strategies that favor effective and meaningful digital inclusion in adult and youth education.
