Educação: algumas considerações sobre a EJA no Brasil

Abstract

During almost 500 years of history, there was depreciation of our own language, customs, traditions and skills. In proportion to their struggle, people start to see the world more clearly, learning that the State also has to guarantee improvements in life. The challenges are growing, considering that situation changes and, logically, so does men, but without the right of education, the prejudice and discrimination continue acting on our society, which is classdivided. The education must be thought to the formation of every single one, where educator and learner are part of the same pedagogical collective group. The school, facing the demand of this modern world, has to be adapted to this reality, through its political-pedagogical project, considering the conception of world, the ways of learning, the interests and needs of the population, allowing the learners to enjoy their right of being an active part of life. The education for young and adults isn't different; it's based on learning, emphasizing human values, solidarity and ethic. With Paulo Freire, came up the idea of appreciation of the individual as he is the producer of culture and knowledge. Method by which, men developed the ability to think through awareness and dialogue. Unfortunately, the public policies were not enough and/or effective yet to eradicate the adult illiteracy.
