Mulheres, mães e pedagogas: dificuldades e superações para cursar a graduação em pedagogia na UFAL - Delmiro Gouveia - Campus sertão

Abstract

This work aims to describe and analyze experiences of women, mothers and pedagogues in their interfaces, difficulties and overcomes to attend a degree in pedagogy at UFAL / Campus Sertão. The problem that we seek to discuss throughout the research concerns: what are the difficulties and possibilities of being a mother and academic of the Pedagogy course at UFAL / Campus Sertão? The methodology was relative to qualitative, with emphasis on semi structured interview, with field journal record and discourse analysis. The target audience was relative to young women who became mothers during graduation. For this purpose, authors such as Louro (1997, 2010), Sarti (2004), Soihet (2012), Souza (2007) and Saffioti (1998) were used, among others, which provide a basis for discussion about being and living as a woman, mother and academic in their singularities. The results problematize the androcentric structures that insist on the standardization of women as naturally mother, docile and fragile. We have shown that the act of having to choose between being a mother and a pedagogue is already an oppression, and a process of subversion of the dominant order is necessary. Through this work, more than a drawer analysis we seek to give voice to women pedagogues, academics and mothers in their experiences, denouncing the social structures engendered in a constant process of denaturalization.
