Ceunes e extensão universitária : perspectivas e desafios da curricularização

Abstract

The National Education Plan (PNE), Law no. 13.005 / 2014, effective from 2014 to 2024, stipulates in its strategy 12.7, the payment of at least ten percent of the total curricular credits required in undergraduate courses, through extension programs and projects in areas of social relevance. In light of this guideline, the following question should be asked about this research: Are the Ceunes Undergraduate Pedagogical Projects meeting the goal set in the PNE (2014-2024), in its goal 12, strategy 12.7? To answer this question, a qualitative exploratory study was carried out, characterized as a case study. We used the procedures of bibliographic and documentary research on the term extension curricularization and, as for data collection, carried out a survey of extension actions in the Center from its creation in (2006) until 2019/01; analysis of the Pedagogical Course Projects regarding the insertion of the extension and application of questionnaires to the Coordinators of Undergraduate Courses and Presidents of the Structuring Teaching Centers about the PNE Strategy 12.7 in force. The results show a low number of shares registered at Extension Information System (SIEX). The types of actions highlighted were in charge of Projects and Events and the most explored areas of knowledge are Education and Health. As for the Pedagogical Course Projects (PPCs), the Extension is inserted as Complementary Activities, even in those documents that were reformulated after current legislation. The results also indicate that the Course Coordinators and NDEs Presidents need to discuss how to link extension activities to the respective curricular components. It was noticed that there are several adjustments to be made in the curricula for the implementation of the extension accreditation in CEUNES courses. To assist in reaching the PNE strategy 12.7 (2014-2024), a Situational Report and Action Plan for CEUNES is proposed as product of the research
