METODOLOGIAS ATIVAS NA EDUCAÇÃO DE JOVENS E ADULTOS: CONCEPÇÕES E POSSIBILIDADES FORMATIVAS

Abstract

Youth and Adult Education (EJA) aims to provide school education for young people and adults who could not or did not have the opportunity to attend regular education at the age set by law. When considering the context of current technologies, it is considered to bring to the discussion the use of Active Methodologies and their training possibilities in EJA. To this end, it is necessary to consider that these methodologies focus on the student, who is the protagonist in the process of building learning. This requires the teacher to act as a teaching/learning mediator; learning through reflections on the contents, awakening students' interest; use of the senses. Therefore, when it is proposed to present, through a bibliographic survey, studies already published on EJA and the use of Active Methodologies in this teaching modality, it reiterates the importance of expanding discussions on educational policies that also prioritize the training of education professionals to work with this public regarding the use of these methodologies as training possibilities in EJA. The development of the proposed bibliographical survey consisted, at first, in the identification of academic texts published between the years 2012 and 2021, which contained in their titles the descriptors: Youth and Adult Education, Active Methodologies and the combination of terms, on the platforms , Google Scholar, Scielo, Portal Capes and Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations. Exclusion criteria were texts published in languages other than Portuguese and also those whose production does not fit into the defined time frame. In the second moment, the texts that contained the descriptors MA and EJA in their titles were analyzed. It is believed that this discussion should be part of the proposal for the continuing education of teachers and other education professionals who work in the school space.
