A escola pública e Paulo Freire : o encontro (re)velado.

Abstract

The research approaches the relationship between teachers of state schools and Freire’s education. In order to do that, were offered to teachers of two state schools from Canguçu/RS, one of them is urban and the other is rural, group reflection moments about their practices in an emancipatory perspective to understand the references used. It observes that these emancipatory perspectives, originated from the sense or from the qualified common sense of the teachers, are related to Freire’s education even if there is not an explicit approximation with Paulo Freire’s work. It intends showing that Freire’s work could power this emancipatory movement of the teachers as it gave more confidence of the way such workers are taking and it related aspects which appear fragmented in their speeches as a theoretical group reflection.
