O ensino de geografia na educação de jovens e adultos na escola municipal Dr. Euvaldo Tomaz de Souza. Porto Nacional - TO

Abstract

Geography education, with its specific variations, is crucial for ensuring continuous access to education, promoting inclusion for people of all ages and social conditions. In Adult and Youth Education (EJA), Geography adopts various approaches to meet students' needs and create its own identity. The National Education Guidelines and Framework Law (LDB) directs that the EJA curriculum should be adapted to students' experiences and contexts, fostering a relevant and meaningful education. This research aims to analyze Geography teaching in EJA at Escola Municipal Dr. Euvaldo Tomaz de Souza, providing data to improve pedagogical practices and promote a more effective and engaging learning environment. The study employed both qualitative and quantitative approaches, including literature review, document analysis, and primary data collection through interviews. The research found that Geography teaching at EJA Souza is tailored to a diverse audience, including youth, adults, and seniors. Geography is essential for linking theory and practice, addressing topics such as urban transformations and inequalities. Adapting the curriculum to students' needs is vital for providing an inclusive and relevant education. The study concludes that to enhance education quality in EJA, it is crucial to strengthen the connection between pedagogical practices and students' realities, provide adequate support for teachers, and implement policies that address the specific needs of teaching young and adult learners.
