Two Monologues Do Not Make a Dialogue: youth and secondary education

Abstract:

Based on some studies about the connections between youth culture and school, the text questions the traditional view of youth as troubled times and young people as individuals against the school system. At the same time, the text poses questions that broaden the debate concerning the secondary education to consider issues related to youth cultures. The young people possess knowledge generated in different educational scopes, subject to multiple cultural pedagogies, which demands attention to thinking about contents and teaching methods. The ideas here gathered are intended to instigate debates among young people and educators, seeking to reframe the meanings assigned to the Secondary Education.
