O DISCURSO FUNDADOR E A EDUCAÇÃO DE JOVENS E ADULTOS: UM MOVIMENTO SOCIAL NECESSÁRIO NO BRASIL

Abstract

This article aimed to understand the production of different discursive meanings in pedagogical practice with textbooks designed for Youth and Adult Education (EJA) in the city of Pouso Alegre-MG, as well as the meaning of this practice and these materials for learners. Theoretically and methodologically, this research is affiliated to the French Discourse Analysis and to studies established by Eni Puccinelli Orlandi. We have selected for this analysis the textbook “É bom aprender”, published in the year of 2009, which meets the requirements of resolution 51, from 16/09/2009. In addition to regard the meanings produced by such textbook, we also performed interviews – initiative in which we have employed the methodology of Oral History – with a fellow-pupil of the Municipal Center for Adult and Youth Education, seeking to understand the configuration of discursive forms that emerge from the teaching-learning process and its meaning for learners who are enrolled at EJA.
