História oral de vida: percepção dos estudantes do curso de Pedagogia da FACED/UFAM oriundos da Educação de Jovens e Adultos em relação ao ensino superior

Abstract

The object of this research is the perception of students from Youth and Adult Education in relation to Higher Education. The purpose of this work is to identify the factors that influenced their trajectories during Basic Education and how they reflected in the way these students saw and understood Higher Education. Our approach is qualitative, the methodology chosen is based on Oral History, using the narrative of two students of the Pedagogy Course at the Faculty of Education of the Federal University of Amazonas to understand the constraints that interfered in their perceptions related to Higher Education. The justification is based on reflection on the relationship between the education modality of Youth and Adult Education and Higher Education, in order to understand how these stages of teaching work together. Through the interviews, we sought to find the elements that were in line with the research objective, including other factors: the context and social profile of these students, difficulties faced during their school careers, forms of incentive, among others. It was necessary to know their trajectories in order to understand the social factors that emerged during the interview, which, despite being divergent, was in line with the central objective of the research. We concluded this research considering the countless factors that influence the life of this student from the EJA until the entry into ES, whether these are internal factors, such as low self-esteem, family issues, or even external factors such as the lack of encouragement from the educational institutions themselves when it's about giving continuity to studies within a university.
