The Youth and Adult Education reaches only a small portion of its demand, and one of the main issues that leads the public to not attend school classes is the inadequacy of methodologies and knowledge to their realities and objectives. In the Municipal Education of the city Florianópolis (SC), a different form of school work has been developed, which seeks to meet this need, called research as an educational principle. The goal of this article is to analyze this methodology, which has been adopted since 2001, going through its development, its theoretical references and some reflections on the school’s daily practice. Aside from the theoretical research, this article uses reports of classroom experience and analysis of texts produced by some students in 2018, seeking to demonstrate some of the potential and limits of this practice. Therefore, it is believed that, from the further development of this methodology, it is possible to better analyze some demands and issues pertinent to Youth and Adult Education in Brazil.

Palavras-chave : Youth and Adult Education; Research as Educational Principle; Pedagogical practices.
