The Narrative Productions Methodology in the Pedagogy of Alternation: contributions to the Professional Project of the Youth

Abstract

The present work aims to assess the contributions of an Agricultural Family School - EFA in Minas Gerais to the formation of its students. To do so, semi-structured narrative interviews were carried out with five students on their life and student trajectory, besides evaluation interviews on the development of the Youth Professional Project at the EFA with the participant students and a teacher from the institution. The paper has as theoretical-methodological framework the Methodology of Narrative Productions. The results suggest approximation between the proposal of the Methodology of Narrative Productions and references from the pedagogy of alternation used by the EFAs; the importance of Agricultural Family Schools for a contextualized education to the rural people and the difficulties faced by the alumni to the implementation of the Youth Professional Projects.
