As práticas pedagógicas no ensino da educação de jovens e adultos no ensino médio da escola estadual Maria Amália em Recife /PE

Abstract

Youth and Adult Education (EJA) is made up of a diversity of subjects and, therefore, constitutes a teaching modality that requires specific pedagogical practices in the educational setting. Given this context, this study aims to highlight the main pedagogical practices and their impact on students' experiences, contributing to their learning and retention in the educational setting. With a qualitative approach, was used in this work semi-structured interviews and participant observation with educators, as well as a closed-ended questionnaire with high school students at the EJA modality (EMEJA) as methodological data collection procedures. The research subjects were three teachers and 35 students enrolled in the EMEJA program at Escola Estadual Maria Amália, located in Recife, Pernambuco. It was noted that the educators' pedagogical practices are diverse, but traditional resources, such as writing on the whiteboard and lectures, still present in the teaching process, are what most assist students in the learning process in this modality. Therefore, it is important to reflect on the dynamics of EJA participants in their educational experience. Therefore, it is estimated that this type of education provides young people and adults with the knowledge and skills necessary to fully realize the rights and responsibilities of citizens and to seize all opportunities for professional, personal, and social growth.
