The present study is an investigation into two experiences related to deprivation of liberty, developed at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, that consists of an extension program and a research project on sentence remission through reading. In this investigation, we aim to understand how research and extension complement each other in the training of undergraduate students. To achieve this, we draw from our experiences as research or extension students through an autobiographical approach and develop our narratives on the educational dimension, in which we are immersed as students of Pedagogy and Social Sciences. Initial results indicate the importance of the dialogue between extension and research, as we perceive in our experiences that both are in a dialogical relationship. Research contributes to mapping data, laws, theoretical frameworks to be used, and the practices that are developed. Extension, from the perspective of popular education, can promote dialogues of different knowledge, exchanges of proposals for action, and social intervention. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
