Senac University Center Leveling Program – An Experience that Integrates Knowledge and Creativity

Luciana Mara Ribeiro

Abstract


In Brazil, all levels of education present a historical deficiency and this situation was worsened during the pandemic that occurred in 2020, with one of the impacts on Higher Education Institutions being the learning gap presented by incoming students, who had part of the content of the High school committed to the absence of basic subject classes. According to Barreto (2013), the deficiencies brought by the student, especially with regard to reading and interpreting texts and writing, are perceived in the most varied areas of university knowledge and involve the entire academic career. This fact contributes, therefore, to high rates of poor university training, a negative factor that leads us to reflect on ways to improve the quality of education and, consequently, reduce social inequality, seeking possible solutions to these difficulties faced by students entering education. higher. Faced with this situation, the Centro Universitário Senac, located in São Paulo, with 38 undergraduate courses from different areas of knowledge and around 8,000 students, improved its leveling activities, seeking to develop more attractive and differentiated activities, in addition to preparing the teaching staff. to work through these difficulties. The Leveling Program aims to enhance the knowledge of incoming students in the areas of mathematics, chemistry, physics, Portuguese language, communication and expression and the production of academic work, reducing learning difficulties in higher education courses and contributing to their academic journey. The schedule of activities is announced to incoming students at the beginning of the semester, in a Virtual Welcome Space and face-to-face workshops, cultural Literature events and installations with tips and content are held in campus environments, such as a literary staircase with poems on the steps , panel on mathematics on the Demoiselle plane exposed with campus and a giant periodic table in a student commons area. In this way, this work aims to share the actions and results obtained by our Leveling Program, in reducing students' difficulties in the learning process, and consequently, in reducing evasion, and also in encouraging reading, something that contributes to professional training of students in all areas of knowledge.
