ABSTRACT
University extension is the educational, cultural and scientific process
that articulates the functions of teaching and research and
enables the transforming relationship between the University and
Society. However, there are gains to the University that may not
be perceived trivially. The present work seeks to delve into what
these returns to the University are, taking into consideration the
guideline that proposes the Impact on Student Education. That said,
this paper aims to map the social and emotional skills worked on in
the TIChers project, a university extension project of the Academic
Department of Informatics (DAINF) of the Federal Technological
University of Paraná (UTFPR) Curitiba campus, a partner of the Digital
Girls program of the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC). To this
end, a survey was carried out with the people participating in the
project, also seeking to understand how they classify the sense of
belonging and what is their engagement with the course/university
after joining the project. Finally, to try to understand the results
of University Extension in a broader context, the results of this
research will be related to papers that discuss socioemotional skills
in the context of University Extension.
