Thematic approach and contexts of life in a science and biology educative practice in EJA

In this article we analyze student's speeches about its experiences in an educative science and biology practice in Adult and Young Education nominated Interactive Seminaries. These speeches were video recorded, observed and categorized, detaching relevant elements referring to objectives of practice in question and to educator observation of the student's interaction during the process. This educator co-ordinated the seminaries development and is one of the researchers. The representative speech of the different visions had guided the accomplishment of a focal group with the objective to detail and to confirm the categories constructed. The students' speechs indicate relations between scientific knowledge and student's life contexts. Moreover, the Interactive Seminaries also made possible the development of communication and interpretation abilities and negotiation and collective relationship attitudes.
