The aim of this study was to examine how the interviewed primary teachers in two schools situated in the Stockholm area understand themselves as teachers in relation to their image of the good teacher. The research questions were:  How do the informants discuss their image of the good teacher?  How do the informants describe their own role as a teacher? A qualitative method, by interviews made with four primary teachers, was used to collect data for the examination. The results from the interviews were analyzed and discussed from the theories and earlier research concerning the role of the teacher and what they describe as the good teacher. The theoretical connection of this study was based on the theories of Vygotsky, Piaget, Bruner, Dewey, Dreikurs, Kounin and Glasser concerning the relationship between the role of the teacher and learning. The conclusions of this study was that the four primary teacher’s image of the good teacher match their description of their own role as a teacher, and so does the most of the earlier research on the subject. Teachers must possess a broad competence and contiously control a lot. I believe that teachers’ personal characteristics in some cases can affect the quality of teaching and the pupils’ learning but I think that it is primarily the teacher’s attitude to their professional role and the teaching quality in itself that contributes to learning. An extrovert or humble teacher is not necessarily a better teacher than those who do not have these characteristics, but who carries on a teaching marked by orderliness and commitment. I do not think there is a definitive link between a teaching that contributes to learning and the personal characteristics that are often associated with the good teacher.

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Durante a trajetÃria escolar e/ou acadÃmica, muitos professores passam pela vida dos alunos. Com suas prÃticas e atitudes, com os relacionamentos estabelecidos, marcam positiva ou negativamente a vida desses sujeitos. Desse modo, ao longo dos anos, vÃo se sedimentando as crenÃas que os discentes possuem acerca dos bons professores. Que atitudes e prÃticas se destacam? O que caracteriza o fazer pedagÃgico desses professores? Como o estudo sobre essas questÃes pode contribuir para reflexÃes crÃticas e novos direcionamentos para a FormaÃÃo Inicial de Professores? Partindo de pontos inquietantes como esses, esta pesquisa guiou-se por meio do seguinte objetivo geral: compreender as crenÃas dos discentes do curso de Pedagogia da Universidade Federal do CearÃ, sobre o âbom professorâ, descrevendo-as e relacionando-as com a formaÃÃo inicial. Este, por sua vez, desdobrando-se nos seguintes objetivos especÃficos: evidenciar a importÃncia que as crenÃas docentes possuem em relaÃÃo ao trabalho que desenvolvem; descrever as concepÃÃes predominantes sobre o bom professor no pensamento pedagÃgico brasileiro; refletir sobre a Pedagogia e suas problemÃticas, explicitando os saberes que compÃem a formaÃÃo docente; apresentar as crenÃas sobre o bom professor, compreendendo e descrevendo a visÃo de graduandos no curso de Pedagogia sobre as caracterÃsticas inerentes a esse profissional, estabelecendo diÃlogo constante com a formaÃÃo inicial de professores, seus desafios e dilemas. O interesse pelo estudo das crenÃas dos discentes em relaÃÃo ao bom professor tem um de seus alicerces na compreensÃo, juntamente com Soares (2005), Soares e Bejarano (2008), Arroyo (2013), Gay (1995), de que tais concepÃÃes influenciam e balizam as prÃticas docentes. Tais crenÃas tÃm suas fundaÃÃes, muitas vezes, durante os longos anos da escolarizaÃÃo bÃsica. Para a realizaÃÃo deste estudo, utilizou-se o referencial de Hume (2004; 2004), Bourdieu (2015) e Thugendat (1982), para tratar sobre a formaÃÃo da crenÃa na mente humana, de modo que este conceito pudesse ser percebido transposto do campo religioso. Os pressupostos metodolÃgicos da pesquisa estÃo calcados no Materialismo HistÃrico-DialÃtico (PAULO NETO, 2011; TRIVIÃOS, 2013), com abordagem qualitativa. Referida investigaÃÃo foi realizada com alunos do curso de Pedagogia da Faculdade de EducaÃÃo da Universidade Federal do CearÃ. O procedimento metodolÃgico para a geraÃÃo dos dados se deu com a realizaÃÃo de entrevistas semiestruturadas. Os mÃtodos adotados para o manuseio dos dados foram a AnÃlise do Discurso (MAINGUENEAU, 2015) e AnÃlise de ConteÃdo (BARDIN, 2016). O segundo teve sua importÃncia vinculada à formaÃÃo das categorias. Com suporte no estudo sobre o material produzido por intermÃdio das entrevistas realizadas, foi possÃvel chegar as seguintes categorias: Bons professores sÃo realizadores da humana docÃncia; Articulam saberes; Aliam teoria e prÃtica; SÃo realizadores de prÃxis; Possuem vasta metodologia; SÃo agentes polÃticos; Se percebem na condiÃÃo de eternos aprendizes; Compreendem a profissionalizaÃÃo docente; TÃm afeto pelo trabalho que realizam; e Espelham-se em bons professores que jà possuÃram. Com a origem nas crenÃas, entÃo, foram feitas relaÃÃes e reflexÃes quanto à formaÃÃo inicial de professores, na busca pela compreensÃo de algumas de suas problemÃticas, tendo sido possÃvel pensar caminhos e reafirmar concepÃÃes. Com isso, esta pesquisa pontua como tessituras finais, nÃo apenas, as crenÃas, como tambÃm os seus achados, e, na mesma medida, a conclusÃo de que bons professores possuem uma diversidade de saberes e fazeres docentes, o que nÃo quer dizer que esses profissionais podem ser percebidos como um todo harmonioso. Nesse mote, destaca, tambÃm, que as crenÃas quanto ao bom professor dialogam com uma gama de outras crenÃas e questÃes, reverberando no entendimento de que esse ramo do saber interage com a concepÃÃo que se tem em relaÃÃo à escola, à EducaÃÃo, ao ofÃcio docente, ao ensino, à aprendizagem, entre outros, influenciando as aÃÃes, atitudes e direcionamentos que, cotidianamente, sustentam a prÃtica pedagÃgica. / During the academic trajectory many teachers pass through students' lives with their practices and postures establishing relationships changing positively or negatively the lives of these students. So, over the years, the beliefs that the students have about the good teachers are settled. What standpoints and practices stand out? What characterizes the pedagogical doing of these teachers? How can the study of these questions contribute to critical reflections and new directions for Initial teacher formation? Based on disturbing questions such as these, this research was guided by the following general objective: To understand the beliefs of Pedagogy course students from Federal University of CearÃ, about the "good teacher", describing and relating them to their initial formation. This, in turn, unfolding in the following specific objectives: to highlight the importance that teaching beliefs have in relation to the work that they develop; Describe the predominant conceptions about the good teacher in Brazilian pedagogical thinking; Reflecting on Pedagogy and its problems, explaining the knowledge that make up teacher education; Presenting the beliefs about the "good teacher", understanding and describing the vision of undergraduates in the course of Pedagogy on the characteristics inherent to this professional. Also establishing a constant dialogue with the initial formation of teachers, their challenges and dilemmas. The interest in the study of students' beliefs that the good teacher has his/her foundations in understanding, along with Soares (2005), Soares and Bejarano (2008), Arroyo (2013) and Gay (1995) And change the teaching practices. Such beliefs have their foundations, often, during the long years of basic schooling. For this study, the reference of Hume (2004; 2004), Bourdieu (2015) and Thugendat (1982) was used to deal with the formation of belief in the human mind, so that this concept could be perceived beyond Religious field. The methodological assumptions of the research are based on the Historical-Dialectical Materialism (PAULO NETO, 2011; TRIVIÃOS, 2013), with a qualitative approach. This research was carried out with students of the Pedagogy course of the Faculty of Education of the Federal University of CearÃ. The methodological procedure for the generation of the data occurred with the accomplishment of semistructured interviews. The methods adopted for data manipulation were Discourse Analysis (MAINGUENEAU, 2015) and Content Analysis (BARDIN, 2016). This last one, having its importance linked to the process of formation of the categories. From the study on the material produced through the interviews conducted, it was possible to arrive at the following categories: good teachers are directors of human teaching; Articulate knowledge; Theory and practice; Are practitioners of praxis; Have a broad methodology; Are political agents; Perceive themselves in the condition of eternal apprentices; Professorship; Have affection for the work they do and are mirrored in good teachers they have already had. From the beliefs, then, relationships and reflections were made regarding the initial formation of teachers, in the search for the understanding of some of their problems, and it was possible to think ways and reaffirm conceptions. Thus, this research points to the conclusion that good teachers have a diversity of knowledges and professorships, which is not noticed that these professionals can be perceived as a harmonious whole. In this context, he also emphasizes that beliefs about the good teacher interact with a range of other beliefs and questions, reverberating in the understanding that this branch of knowledge interacts with the conception that one has ab outschool, education, teaching, learning, among others, end up influencing the actions, postures and directions that daily support pedagogical practice.

Para tal, em um primeiro momento, fizemos um estudo-piloto com o uso da técnica de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com três sujeitos da referida comunidade escolar, sendo eles um diretor e dois professores. Nesse estudo-piloto, verificamos que a representação social do professor de Educação Física está vinculada à esportivização. Em um segundo momento, na pesquisa propriamente dita, entrevistamos vinte e quatro sujeitos, sendo eles seis pedagogos, seis professores, seis pais e seis alunos de 8ª série do Ensino Fundamental. Utilizamos três escolas públicas municipais para a seleção dos sujeitos. Uma vez coletados os dados, fizemos a interpretação e análise à luz da Representação Social, utilizando Moscovici (1978, 2001, 2003) e Jodelet (2001), além da Análise de Conteúdo proposta por Bardin (1977)e dos movimentos históricos que permearam a Educação Física (DARIDO & RANGEL, 2005). Podemos concluir que, dentre os professores e pedagogas, a abordagem esportivista foi a predominante (assim como no estudo-piloto). Já para os pais e alunos, a representação do BOM professor de Educação Física está atrelada ao educador, mediador, criativo, independente de qual conteúdo será ministrado por esse professor. A visão desses alunos corrobora a importância da abordagem crítico-emancipatória. Concluímos que ainda há muito o que se fazer na escola para evitar o continuísmo da representação do professor de Educação Física que somente ministra esportes com bola a fim de contemplarmos o anseio de nossos alunos pelo professor mediador. / Understanding to be the professor the subject protagonist in a school, we present as objective of this research to identify the Social Representations of the pertaining to school community in Cachoeiro de Itapemirim (ES) on what it is to be a GOOD professor of Physical Education. For such, at a first moment, we made a study-pilot with the use of the technique of interviews half-structuralized with three citizens of the related pertaining to school community, being they a director and two professors. In this study-pilot, we verify that the social representation of the professor of Physical Education is tied to the sportivization. At as a moment, in the research properly said, we interview twenty and four citizens, being they six pedagogues, six teachers, six parents and six pupils of 8th grades of Basic Teach. We use three municipal public schools for the election of the citizens. A time collected the data, we made the interpretation and analysis to the light of the Social Representation, using Moscovici (1978, 2001, 2003) and Jodelet (2001), beyond the Analysis of Content proposal for Bardin (1977)e of historical movements that permeated the Physical Education (DARIDO & RANGEL, 2005). We can conclude that, amongst the teachers and pedagogues, the sport boarding was the predominant one (as well as in the study-pilot). For the parents and pupils, the representation of the GOOD professor of Physical Education is linked to the educator, mediator, creative, independent of which content will be given by this professor. The vision of these pupils corroborates the importance of the critical-emancipatory boarding. We conclude that still it has very what to become in the school to prevent continuous actions of the representation of the teacher of Physical Education that only gives sports with ball in order to contemplate the yearning of our pupils for the mediating teacher.

This research study investigates what 122 secondary students believe makes a good teacher of English as a second language. The students were randomly selected from three different schools in Malmö, Sweden. Six teachers’ views from the same schools will also be examined. The teachers and students answered questionnaires with open-ended and close-ended questions. Many researchers state that there are particular qualities that a teacher should possess to be considered a good teacher by the students. Qualities such as: being understanding, having a certain personality, being a motivator and a supporter, mastering the English language well, and listening to students wishes, are a few of many qualities that are being mentioned. The results indicate that the main quality that a teacher should possess is good knowledge of English. Other qualities that were mentioned were, varying work methods, the teacher’s personality, being supportive and encouraging ect. The students and the teachers opinions in comparison to what the researchers argue are not tremendously different.

Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo estudar as características reconhecidas como sendo positivas em professores, de acordo com a visão de alunos e professores. Como instrumento de coleta de dados, foram aplicados questionários com uma pergunta aberta respondido por alunos do 5o ano do Ensino Fundamental, além de uma série de entrevistas com professores selecionados de duas escolas públicas. A pesquisa foi baseada no estudo das diversas facetas da atuação do professor em sala de aula (tanto em aspectos comportamentais quanto de atuação), estabelecendo divergências e similaridades nas opiniões defendidas por educandos e educadores. O intuito é dar insumos para entender melhor aspectos da visão que predomina sobre a figura do professor e suas representações na contemporaneidade. / This research had the objective to study the recognized positive characteristics on teachers, according to the students and teachers view. As a data collection tool, questionnaires with an open question answered by students in the fifth grade of elementary schools were applied, as well as a series of interviews with selected teachers from two public schools. The research was based on the study of the various facets of teacher performance in the classroom, taking consideration themselves in behavioral and performance aspects, establishing differences and similarities in the views expressed by students and educators. The intention is to give inputs to better understand aspects of view that predominates over the figure of the teacher and their representations in contemporary times.

Media often discusses school, teachers and students. These discussions are often based on an adult perspective and students' views on the subject are not enhanced. Therefore, this paper intends to examine students' views on what they think makes a good teacher. Previous research shows that a good teacher can create the conditions for good learning based on the needs of students, and this is therefore important to investigate. The theoretical basis for this essay is the definition of an authentic teacher that which in this essay will be discussed from the point of view of Fibaek Laursen (2004). A quantitative research method was used and a questionnaire asked for high school students' views on what makes a good teacher. The research revealed two results where the first result showed that amongst other things students valued most in a good teacher is the fair and unbiased treatment towards students. The second result showed that students consider the characteristics linked to a teacher's profession are of great importance. Our conclusion is therefore that students consider the fair teacher which has a great engagement in his/her work to be the good teacher that they ask for.
