PREOPINION STORMS: UNDERGRADUATES’ REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT UNIVERSITY EXTENSION
Keywords:
representation, extension, extension initiationAbstract
This present paper aims to analyze undergraduates’ representations, who are applicants for selection in extension’s initiation scholarship. These students have participated in orientation courses about elaboration of work plans for acting in Extension Projects/Programs promoted by Department of Extension (PROEX) of State University of Feira de Santana (UEFS), in 2010. The analysis is based on theoretical-methodological concept of Representation proposed by Chartier and the review about extension conception by Paulo Freire (1983) and by National Plan of University Extension (BRASIL, 2000/2001). This article also seeks to establish relations between the students’ representations about extension, their effects upon the extension’s practices and the laid aside place wherein the Extension still resides in the academic life of the Brazilian universities.
