A implementação do programa educacional de atenção ao jovem - PEAS Juventude: o estudo de caso de duas escolas estaduais em Patos de Minas - MG

Abstract

This dissertation, titled “Implementation of the Educational Program of Attention to the Young One - PEAS Youth: The Case Study on Management of Two State Schools in Patos de Minas, MG”, aims to identify how the managers and other agents on these two schools are involved with the PEAS Youth program, and which are the positive and negative aspects detected in the program implementation. The research was done on two public schools which belong to Patos de Minas´ Regional Scholarship Superintendence, part of the Minas Gerais state educational network. These two schools were chosen for the research due to the fact that both of them implemented PEAS Youth in 1999, when it left the status of a pilot program in Belo Horizonte´s metropolitan area and established itself as an MG State Secretary for Education program, being then extended to the 47 regional scholarship superintendences in the state´s educational network. Since 2002, I have been working as one of the program´s regional coordinator. In such job, I had the opportunity of following the two chosen schools through all the management and operational changes the PEAS Youth program had suffered in its historical context. With scholar management chosen as investigation field, I had relatively structured interviews, as a form of qualitative research, with the schools management personnel, with coordinators and teachers of GDPEAS, with PEAS Youth coordination central in SSE/MG, and also with the Patos de Minas regional scholarship director. This research instrument, along with bibliographic research and analysis of collected data, allowed the direct comparison between the program expectations and the reality in the management of these schools, in the light of the goals of this thesis. The theoretical basis on scholar management used in this work is founded on the studies of José Carlos Libâneo (2003, 2009), Heloisa Lück (2000, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011), Márcia Cristina da Silva Machado (2010), Marcelo Tadeu Baumann Burgos (2011), José Luis Neves (1996), Henry Mintzberg (2009, 2010), Maria Lúcia Miranda Afonso (2000), Maria Helena Michel (2009), Cecília de Souza Minayo (1994), Gilberto de Andrade Martins (2008), Thaís Cristina Rodrigues Tezani (2004).
