FROM UNIVERSITY EXTENSION TO THE EDUCATION PROGRAM FOR YOUNG, ADULT AND ELDERLY PEOPLE (PROEJAICAp-Uerj):

CAp-Uerj ITINERARIES

Abstract

The paper's aim is critically present how PROEJAI, a development program for students excluded from their regular training, was implemented at Fernando Rodrigues da Silveira Application Institute (CAp-Uerj). It's a Program centred at basic training for young, adult and elderly people. With this paper, we intend to constitute a record of the memories of the Education Program for Young, Adult and Elderly People of the Instituto de Aplicação Fernando Rodrigues da Silveira (PROEJAICAp-UERJ), considering its implementation and its first year of existence as its initial temporality. With this, we present the reflection and discussion on the importance of the training experience, lived in the field of youth and adult education, bringing the trajectory of its construction, considering different moments, namely: the university extension initiative, serving the internal public and from the surroundings of that university unit the construction of a Program with the support of the Rectory of the State University of Rio de Janeiro (Uerj), through the Dean of Undergraduate Studies, from the year 2022, in partnership with the management of Unit and group of teaching and technical-administrative employees. The results point to the need for community involvement in administrative and pedagogical actions, aiming to serve a target audience excluded from school benches, for different reasons, eager, however, for quality teaching. Added to this aspect is the need for spaces to offer curricular internships in the field of EJA for undergraduate students at Uerj, which adds value and importance to PROEJAICAp-Uerj.
