Centro de Estudos Supletivos de Niterói: uma proposta de educação para jovens e adultos (1976-1986)

Abstract

One of the consequences of the teaching of the second cycle of supplementary education of the 1st Degree from the Education Reform Law no. 5,692 / 71, it was the creation of the Center of Supplemental Education (CES) and, among them, the Center of Supplemental Education in Niterói City, State of Rio de Janeiro inaugurated in September 1976. This public institution, using the semi-distance method of distance education (EAD), was already a reality in Brazil and abroad. The entrance of foreign capital in the country occurred through the establishment of industries and factories, which brought demand for manpower. To this end, the public educational policy organized in the years of the military dictatorship (1964-1985) invested in the education of young people and adults for the labor market. This dissertation intends to analyze the process of creation, organization and functioning of the Niterói CES in its first decade (1976 to 1986). We are interested, on the basis of the central question, to understand the creation of the Center of Supplemental Education in Niterói and its scenario before its audience. We will search for the motivations in which the ESCs were generated by the Ministry of Education and Culture (MEC). The micro-history will be the theoretical and methodological references, revealing the proposal of the adult education programs.
