Desmonte da assistência estudantil uma reflexão sobre os múltiplos olhares

Abstract

The present work aims to understand and analyze the scenario of Student Assistance in Brazil (2014-2018) and how the Federal University of Recôncavo da Bahia (UFRB) scholarship holders have positioned themselves before the dismantling of the Student Assistance Policy. In order to do so, it was necessary to follow the student assistance trajectory step by step in Brazil during the period from 2014 to 2018, followed by a survey of data on Student Assistance within the UFRB. In addition, the present work has led us to reflect on the main concepts of permanence and assistance. The research was developed from methodological positioning that takes into account the in-depth study of the man / woman as subjects of the research. In this process the man / woman is seen as non-passive beings, but as beings who interpret the world or environment in which it is inserted. Being called by the researchers of method of interpretation. Oliveira (2008, p.3) describes this process as being an interpretive activity, performed by the contact between people. His methodological procedures are of ethnographic characters, for example: participant observation, interview, real life history, among others. This process was developed through a qualitative approach of descriptive and exploratory nature, which required the researcher, time and dedication, during the investigation process of the object. The fieldwork consisted of the appropriate cut of operational issues capable of leading the research forward. Thus, the survey revealed that many students are concerned about the Student Assistance Policy, as well as the future of access and permanence of new tickets.
