Encontros e desencontros entre adolescência e educa？？o: relato de pesquisa-interven？？o

this paper is the result of a research on the interface between psychoanalysis and education that proposes to investigate and intervene on the relationship teenagers have towards school nowadays. it was based upon a research-intervention conducted with teenagers and educators that work directly with that segment, within a public school in the state of rio de janeiro, located in the municipality of niterói. the work at the school consisted in workshops provided to those participating in a project focused on students that had trouble to complete the elementary course of studies. by creating several categories for analysis, we were able to organize the data and speech recorded in the reports, facilitating the debate on theory that departs from field work. among the many issues noted during research, what stands out is the difficulty faced by teenagers to sustain their own and individual discourse about themselves and such difficulty is reinforced by the proposed special class in which they are enrolled.
