Educação não-escolar nos cursos de pedagogia: uma análise a partir dos PCCs das universidades federais da região nordeste

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the presence of non-school education in the curriculum of Pedagogy courses at federal universities in the Northeast region of Brazil. This is a qualitative documentary research based on the analysis of the Pedagogical Course Projects (PPCs) of these institutions. The investigation focused on identifying mandatory and elective courses related to non-school education,examining whether this theme is fully addressed or only mentioned transversally in the syllabi. The study seeks to understand to what extent the curricula prepare pedagogues to work in non-school educational spaces, such as social organizations, cultural institutions, social projects and other extra-school contexts.The theoretical framework is based on authors who discuss pedagogy as a science of education, teacher education and non-school education. The results indicate that, although there are some initiatives, non-school education still occupies a limited space in the analyzed curricula, highlighting the need for greater inclusion and recognition of this field in the initial training of pedagogues.
