Summary: | This is an account of the experience of the implementation of the Aging and Education
Pedagogical Workshop: weaving possible paths in the Pedagogy course of Campus III of the State
University of Alagoas. The aim of the workshop was to articulate the theoretical knowledge of aging at
both the medical and psychological levels, in a teacher education environment, with the goal of raising
awareness of being elderly. The workshop was developed in three moments: lecture; elderly participation
and aging circuit. With this experience, the authors affirm that, in view of social changes and the increase
of the elderly population, pedagogy becomes a favorable science for the dialogue of actions that give
visibility to the needs of this portion of the population. They also highlight the great gain of education
with the amendment in LDBEN 9394/96 through Law No. 13.632/2018 that added an item in article 37,
ensuring lifelong education in social daily life and in different educational spaces.
