Educação de Jovens e Adultos: contribuições de artigos em periódicos brasileiros indexados na base SciELO (2010-2014)

This study presents a bibliographic research on the themes, approaches and propositions of 79 papers related to Youth and Adult Education and available in Brazilian journals indexed in SciELO database (2010-2014). It is possible to note that the quantity of publications in this five-year period exceeds the amount in the previous decade and the concentration of texts focused on schooling also draws attention. Among the propositions, there is a state policy for Youth and Adult Education, the Literacy in High School, considering different contexts marked by diversity and the provision/improvement of teacher education. The following are included among the emergent themes: Professional Education integrated to Basic Education; Education in Prison; Education and Health. There was minimal presence of Arts, Environmental Education and History, and silence in relation to Information and Communication Technologies and Geography. The presence of Popular Education is discreet; however, the problematization of theoretical and methodological issues leads to the reflection on its principles in contemporary times.
