O reforço extraescolar no mundo rural : contribuições e limitações para a resolução de problemas de aprendizagem do sujeito do campo

Abstract

Out-of-school tutoring is one of the activities carried out in the search for improvements in students' school performance. The general objective of the study is to reflect on the role of extracurricular reinforcement in the rural world in creating teaching opportunities that enable learning problems to be overcome based on the singularities of the subject and the contextualization of the field. As specific objectives, we defined the following: to describe our experiences as an out-of-school tutoring teacher in the rural world; to report on the perceptions of students and their families about the tutoring carried out in a non-school space during three moments: before, during and after the interventions; to analyze the contributions and limitations of out-of-school tutoring in the rural world through the experiences of the interventions carried out. We carried out the research with elementary school students and their guardians in a rural community located in the municipality of Mamanguape-PB. It is qualitative research and exploratory. We chose the intervention survey method as our procedure. For data collection, we used participant observation and semi-structured interviews at three points in time: before, during, and after the interventions. To analyze the data, we opted for Content Analysis and the interpretation of the thematic categorical analysis technique. The results show that the out-of-school tutoring are perceived by the research collaborators responsible for the children participating in the research as a possible space for the development of school learning and for carrying out “homework”.
