LITERATURE REVIEW: WORKSHOPS

ABSTRACT:

This is a bibliographical review on workshops as an educational modality. We analyzed 256 scientific articles from journals contained in the evaluation area of Education in the Sucupira Platform of CNPq that had the term workshop either in the title, keywords or abstract. They were categorized and described according to their objectives and modes of execution: job workshop, didactic workshop, pedagogical workshop, reading and writing workshop, artistic workshop and therapeutic workshop. Of the articles surveyed, only six focused on analyzing the practice of workshops as an educational modality; the rest employed workshops as a means of developing diverse themes. Finally, we argue that the practice of workshops in the field of education can prove to be a fruitful instrument for the production of knowledge, subjectivation and emancipation processes.
