NEVES JUNIOR, Edson José  y  MAISSIAT, Jaqueline. ALTERNATIVES FOR CURRICULAR CREDITATION OF EXTENSION: CONCEPTUAL DEFINITIONS AND NORMATIVE ANALYSIS. e-Curriculum [online]. 2021, vol.19, n.2, pp.588-611.  Epub 30-Ago-2021. ISSN 1809-3876.  https://doi.org/10.23925/1809-3876.2021v19i2p588-611.

The article has two objectives, to present a discussion about the conceptual-normative definition of the Extension dimension of higher education; and to analyze how the Extension accreditation has been implemented by Higher Education Institutions in Brazil, considering it became a mandatory measure demanded by national regulation since 2018. Regarding the first purpose of this study, the current concept of Extension is all-encompassing, polysemic and, as long as it is possible, neutral, allowing its instrumentalization in the higher education system from multiple interpretations of its nature. As for the second objective, among the verified curricularization models, it is noticed that some institutions seek to follow a more transformative and coherent orientation from the extension's curricularization proposals, while others simply adapt it under the pressure of a demand for change according their own circumstances.

Palabras clave : Extension; Mandatory extension credits; University reform.
