A educação sexual na formação dos estudantes do Curso de Pedagogia do CFP/UFCG.

Abstract

This course conclusion work intends to problematize the topic of Sexual Education in the training of pedagogues, based on the following study question: How are Sexuality and Sexual Education addressed in the Pedagogy Course at the Teacher Training Center-CFP, from Federal University of Campina Grande-UFCG, considering that in the curricular structure of this course there are no specific subjects that objectively deal with this topic. As for the methodology, the chosen research approach was qualitative, developed from an exploratory field study. For this research, the following general objective was developed: to analyze, from the perspective of undergraduates, how the approach to Sexuality and Sexual Education occurred during training in the Pedagogy course at CFP/UFCG. The specific objectives are: 1) to describe the perceptions of CFP/UFCG pedagogy graduates about their training in Sexual Education; 2) Identify the students’ learning about sexual education in their training process in the CFP/UFCG Pedagogy Course; 3) Highlight the effects of the training process on the pedagogues' conception of Sexual Education in the training of graduates of the CFP/UFCG Pedagogy course. Of the authors who constitute the theoretical framework, Maio (1996), Guimarães (1995), Santos (2016), Silva (2015), among others, are highlighted. The research subjects were four students in the ninth period of the aforementioned course and the data were collected through semi-structured interviews, processed and analyzed using content analysis. The analysis of data on sexual education in the training of students in the CFP/UFCG Pedagogy course highlights the need for a curricular review and the need to develop training strategies in order to ensure that future pedagogues are prepared to deal with this relevant issue in their role as educators.
