Perspectivas e desafios das aprendizagens dos estudantes do curso técnico integrado em agropecuária : mediações pedagógicas no contexto da EPT

Abstract

This research will investigate of learning practices the students of an Integrated Agriculture and Livestock Technical Course in the context of Vocational and Technological Education (VTE). In addition, developing research on such a topic could be justified by the way learning issues are understood in the context of integrated secondary schools and by considering the students as possessors of knowledge, thus taking into account the importance of social environment to the learning context. The main objective of this study would be to present some hypotheses about the students' learning as well as the pedagogical interventions carried out by the institution. In terms of methodology, the qualitative approach was used in order to describe the complexity of the educational phenomena. Such methodology would enable a detailed analysis of the peculiarities of the educational institution with the purpose of promoting changes in the subjects involved in the learning process. The types of research conducted were: bibliographical research and action research. The first type would allow the researcher to use a variety of sources, without having to relocate to obtain data directly from the source. While the second type would be valid as a strategy to improve or develop learning practices, i.e., action research improves itself with practice as well as investigates such a practice. The data collection instruments were: record sheets (records) and a questionnaire. The suggested data analysis would be the discursive-textual analysis, as proposed by Roque Moraes and Maria do Carmo Galiazzi, which focuses on writing as a mediating tool in the construction of meanings. In this context, writing would interrelate the speeches of the students and the different meanings of culture, society and how we would reproduce and reinvent the world. Hence, this is an ongoing work and aims to develop an educational product, which will be a study guideline for the students of an Integrated Agriculture and Livestock Technical Course.
