Direito à educação: um estudo sobre o consórcio Cederj nas políticas públicas fluminenses

Abstract

The proposal of this work is to reflect, from the studies of Darcy Ribeiro on the place of the modality 'Distance Learning' in the expansion of the educational offer of higher level in the State of Rio de Janeiro. To do so, I propose work on two fronts: 1) in the systematization of the institutional history of the CEDERJ Consortium, either through documentary analysis or through oral history (with the subjects who have been protagonists in the institution's history - tutors, instructors, managers and students - with emphasis on the first two groups of actors cited) and 2) in the realization, based on the theoretical methodological contribution offered by the History of Education, a writing dedicated to the present time, aligned with the critical thinking that proposes referrals for the questions posed to contemporary Education: offer of vacancies x quality of education; computerization x didactic appropriations of the networked computer; 'Autonomy' of the student x teaching performance; productivity x alienation of the teacher's work. In the research, I questioned distance learning as an instrument for expanding access to higher education, considering that what is considered as a solution does not become part or even aggravate the problems of Brazilian education. For this, it is necessary to reflect on issues such as student autonomy, integration with universities, specific teacher training for the modality, responses to precariousness especially in private education (and repeated in certain aspects in the public), among other factors.In addition to these movements, the research aims to dialogue with the production of the LaboratórioEducação e República in what concerns the historical analysis of the educational experience in Rio de Janeiro, inserting in the agenda of the group the Distance Learning modality, as a way to contribute with the researches carried out until then
