Freire’s contributions to rethinking teaching practices with youth and adults

Abstract

In this article we propose to share research results and their reading from the contributions of Paulo Freire to rething teaching in the modality of young people and adults. The work is part of the Project “Educational practices with young people and adults: policies, subjects and knowledge”, whose responsible researcher is Maria del C. Lorenzatti, with a place of work in the Education Area, Research Center of the Faculty of Philosophy and Humanities, National University of Córdoba (FONCYT/SECYT). Our goal is to analyze the people and knowledge in the elementary school, accounting for shifts in relation to teaching and non-recognition of students as cognitive subjects. We recover reflections about our workshops with teachers of the modality and we point out the naturalized presence of class that configure teaching processes with young people and adults. Finally, we present the potential of work with conceptual core, as a proposal that gives centrality to the politics and pedagogical task of the teacher.
