Abstract
The present study investigates and discusses the presence of Freirean books in the Pedagogy curricula of public in-person undergraduate degrees in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. From the development of the quantitative exploratory research, we identified a total of 28 works by Paulo Freire distributed in 92 subjects in the Pedagogy courses of seven public institutions. The subjects were mainly focused on Youth and Adult Education and Popular Education. The main works used are Pedagogia da Autonomia and Pedagogy of the Oppressed, indicated as basic readings in compulsory subjects. Therefore, we can state that Paulo Freire’s works have been strongly recommended in the subjects of Pedagogy undergraduate degrees.
