SOUZA, JOSIANE DE; OSTERMANN, FERNANDA  and  REZENDE, FLAVIA. RURAL EDUCATION FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF RESEARCH IN SCIENCE EDUCATION. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2020, vol.22, e12275.  Epub Mar 20, 2020. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/21172020210107.

The significant number of undergraduate courses in rural education, initiated in 2009, in Brazil, with emphasis on natural sciences makes relevant the relation between science education and rural education. We searched for articles in national and international science education journals that addressed rural education and analyzed how they approached it. A Bakhtinian analysis suggested that all of them constructed hybrid discourses valuing local reality, but in different ways, in relation to the appropriation of scientific knowledge and/or science teaching: without modification of pre-selected content; with selection of content based on local problems and with modifications of science education practices. We consider the last groups adequate to what we define as scientific rural education.

Keywords : Science education. Rural education. Discourse. Bakhtinian analysis; Hybridism.
