Abstract

This article aims to provide a critical and reflective analysis of research developed in a postgraduate course, from which a new research agenda is organized, which makes it possible to understand the complexity of student experiences that move between rural and urban space, as well as the mutual impacts and influences between students and these environments. In this perspective, the results of research developed in a state public school that aims to understand the factors that mobilize students to depredate school heritage are problematized in this essay. In order to establish a standard of analysis and for adapting to the new research object, the relevance and effectiveness in obtaining information is verified in the work methodology adopted. From this observation, it is conceived as the intended methodology for the development of the new research proposal. . Thus, the research assumes its qualitative nature with a (auto) biographical approach whose instruments used to collect information were a focus groupand narrative interviews. The relevance of the new research proposal can be understood when verifying that the production of scientific knowledge, when it comesin to the relations between urban and rural, in a comprehensive perspective are still quite reduced according to the consulted literature
