Abstract

Taking Paulo Freire's legacy as a reference, we present a research that aimed to investigate what affects EJA students, early years, in order to enhance the desire to keep studying, staying in school for longer, minimizing evasion. This is an empirical research conducted in three classes of EJA (early years), in the city of Campinas / SP. The methodological procedures involved observation in the classroom and the realization of focus groups with 31 students. The analysis explored the meanings attributed by the participants to their personal and school experiences. The factors that contribute to staying at EJA are: the desire for cultural insertion and the perception that they are learning. The influences of family and work constituted both reasons for impediments and permanence.

KEYWORDS: Affections and EJA. Teaching and Learning. School and Cultural Insertion. Permanence and Evasion.
