Música na EJA: um estudo sobre os sentidos das práticas pedagógicas e musicais no contexto da educação de jovens e adultos

Abstract

Music, as a curricular subject, offers a variety of opportunities for implementing welcoming and motivational strategies and is widely emphasized in academic literature. However, there is a scarcity of studies exploring its benefits in youth and adult education (EJA). This research investigates how music can facilitate pedagogical practices aimed at the EJA, using music lessons in a coordinated manner, and providing subsidies for developing a curriculum that contributes to/with educational objectives. Therefore, the study adopted an anthropological approach to sound and examined how music (rhythm, melody, and harmony) manifests itself throughout the lives of individuals within educational contexts. The implications of Law No. 13.278/2016 and the amendment made to Law No. 11.769/2008, which made it more flexible to teach music in schools, were discussed. The theoretical-critical approach to music as a component of education positions it as a powerful educational tool not only for the EJA, but for lifelong learning, promoting more attractive and playful interdisciplinary educational practice, and to its biopsychosocial impact.
