Research with children: between the experience in the field and the writing of the text

Abstract

BEBER, Irene Carrillo Romero  and  BARBOSA, Maria Carmen Silveira. Research with children: between the experience in the field and the writing of the text. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.67, pp.63-83.  Epub May 15, 2019. ISSN 2238-2097.  https://doi.org/10.29286/rep.v28i67.3764.

The writing of the text focuses on two moments in the development of research with children. The first moment is related to the process of observation: being with the children in an attitude of listening, which is marked by the physical presence of the researcher in the capture of scenes and episodes, and in the processes of interaction between the researcher and the subjects. The second moment has to do with the process of distancing during the writing, the theorizing of actions experienced in the field of research. The data generated indicate that research with children involves affective and body interactions, i. e. the personal presence affects and is affected by the experiences lived in the field.

Keywords : Research; Writing; Children Education; Corporeity.
