This work follows a study conducted in 2014 in a public school in the state of Rio de Janeiro. We aimed at identifying and discussing the meanings constructed by students about a proposal for a program called "Nova EJA", implemented by the education department. The Theory of Social Representations (TRS in Portuguese) was used as theoretical-methodological reference. We elected qualitative empirical research to analyze a sample of students. We start by making an historical review of Young and Adult Education (EJA in Portuguese) in Brazil, as well as policies for this kind of education. Next, we describe the implementation context and some of the aspects of the proposal. Following, data were collected interviews and analyzed in light of the aforementioned theory. Thus, by identifying, among the social subjects, the presence or lack of meaning about the new policy, analysis of the results revealed that the educational subjects had not yet built a social representation of the "Nova EJA", as they did not express a common social thought about the proposal.Downloads
