Abstract

The experience understood as part of the graduation of men and women is the inspiration to bring in this thesis the experiment and the understanding of teaching practice, based on memories of the oral expression from teachers about adult education in the city of Santos, Brazil, during the 1990s. The perspective of the democratization of historic research with oral history , from the 1980s onwards, which investigates what subjects excluded from power or decision-making centers have to say about their own experience, makes it possible for the work and impressions of teachers of the modality of education to be known, to inventory and analyze them based on the notion of tactics as a movement that overcomes possible constraint of dominant forces strategy. Access to memories of oral expression of practices is given by using the fundamentals of oral history, which consists mainly in interviews, transcriptions, textualizations, and transcreations, having as its starting point to choose the subjects who reported their experiences as the outcome of a specific public contest to select teachers who would work with adult students in Santos, held in 1991. The recent movements present the contextualization of the space and time in which the contest was held, with the aid of legislative diplomas were given, and the way to orally express the practices through interviews that are transcribed, using contributions from the literature as a contribution for the development of the plots. The notion of transcreation is based on the prerogatives of oral history studied by the Center for the Study of Oral History from the University of São Paulo, and organized the teaching experiences expressed in order to contribute to the incipient field of history of Brazilian adult education.. From analytical possibilities, there practices expressed orally in the exercise of memory are understood as an example of the way of being adequate to the daily reality of the classroom, and the feeling of need to satisfy a social work through the education of adult people.
