Para isso, reconstituo processos e tensões expressas em três experiências: a do trajeto de constituição do próprio pesquisador como professor e a da interação com dois grupos de professores que se propuseram a trabalhar com a temática ambiental na escola. A primeira analisa a experiência como professor pesquisador e envolveu sujeitos da Rede Estadual de Ensino, na periferia de Campinas, São Paulo de 1992 a 1994. A segunda envolve o professor pesquisador coordenando trabalho de educação continuada em educação ambiental junto a educadores da Rede Municipal de Campinas e aconteceu de 1994 a 1996. A partir de fragmentos desses dois trajetos, tenta-se apontar lições relativas à formação do sujeito professor. Nessas lições, busca-se refletir também o percurso de constituição do professor pesquisador no programa da Pós-Graduação, a terceira experiência. A metodologia de pesquisa é a investigação narrativa, construída a partir da memória preservada também através de registros, dialogando com autores como: Larrosa, Certeau, Tardif, Foucault entre outros / Abstract: This work is a narrative of an experience and a reflection about the conflicts of the way of the teacher in his constitution as an elementary public school teacher. To this aim, I constituted the work made in three experiences: one is about the way of the researcher in his constitution, as a teacher. The other one is about the experience with two groups of teachers, which worked with the environmental theme at school. The first one analyses the experience as a teacher and involved state school teachers, from the suburb of Campinas, São Paulo, from 1992 to 1994. The second one involves the teacher as a researcher, coordinating a continuous education work in environmental education, together with City Hall teachers from Campinas, from 1994 to 1996. Through fragments of these two experiences, I tried to learn lessons related to the teacher¿s constitution. Through these lessons, I also reflect about the way of the constitution of the teacher researcher in the post-graduation program, the third experience. The research¿s methodology is the narrative research, constituted through memory and notes and also through readings such as: Larrosa, Certeau, Tardif, Foucault, among others / Mestrado / Ensino, Avaliação e Formação de Professores / Mestre em Educação

Nesta política educacional voltada à formação docente – PIBID – licenciandos exercem atividades pedagógicas em escolas públicas de educação básica, sendo conhecidos bolsistas de iniciação à docência. Acompanham esta ação um professor do curso de Licenciatura, chamado de coordenador de área, e um professor da escola onde o licenciando atua, denominado de supervisor. Todos os envolvidos no programa recebem uma bolsa de auxílio financeiro. Os professores que participam da iniciação à docência dos licenciandos envolvidos no programa são reconhecidos neste estudo como professores formadores. A pesquisa está voltada à formação dos formadores, entendendo que essa formação incidirá na preparação de novos professores. Estabelecemos como objetivos específicos: 1) mapear a formação dos professores formadores de Matemática, Física e Química que participam do PIBID em instituições de um município do Estado do Rio de Janeiro; 2) identificar como se desenvolve o processo formativo no âmbito do PIBID, por meio das práticas relatadas nesse contexto; e 3) analisar potencialidades e limites do PIBID em relação à formação continuada dos professores formadores participantes do programa. Levantamos a seguinte questão de pesquisa: quais os efeitos da participação no PIBID para a formação continuada dos formadores, de acordo com a visão desses profissionais? Para atingir os objetivos propostos e responder à questão de pesquisa, apoiamo-nos na abordagem filosófica do Realismo Crítico, estabelecida como diretriz norteadora deste estudo, pois possibilita a compreensão mais aprofundada do objeto de investigação, desdobrando-se em uma perspectiva metodológica. Realizamos dois levantamentos bibliográficos das produções científicas sobre o PIBID e uma entrevista com o Professor Hélder Eterno da Silveira, ex-Gestor do programa. O público-alvo da pesquisa refere-se aos professores da Licenciatura, da escola de educação básica e licenciandos das áreas de Matemática, Física e Química participantes do PIBID em instituições de ensino de um município do Estado do Rio de Janeiro. Foi aplicado um questionário a todos os integrantes do programa nas áreas delimitadas – 72 participantes. Os dados foram analisados por meio da Análise de Conteúdo - L. Bardin - e apresentados com o auxílio do programa SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences). Os resultados apontam que i) o PIBID é muito bem avaliado pelos participantes; ii) os formadores do estudo vivenciaram um modelo de formação inicial inspirado, principalmente, no modelo da racionalidade técnica; iii) a concepção de docência que os formadores veiculam apresenta traços da racionalidade técnica, mas indícios de racionalidade prática e de racionalidade crítica também foram encontrados; iv) a natureza da relação estabelecida entre os formadores apresenta indícios de verticalidade; v) a estrutura disponibilizada para o desenvolvimento do programa nas escolas apresenta dificuldades, o que aponta para a precariedade das condições de trabalho nas escolas públicas, indicando a relevância da bolsa para os participantes; vi) a carência de professores na área de exatas constitui um difícil problema a ser enfrentado; vii) a quase totalidade dos professores formadores afirma que o programa constitui um importante meio de formação continuada. Apesar da formação inicial mais voltada à influência da racionalidade técnica, os formadores participam de um programa cuja intencionalidade formativa é estabelecida a partir da interação entre instituição formadora e escola. Essa interação vem acentuando seu potencial para a ressignificação da concepção de formação, compreendendo o fenômeno educacional em sua complexidade e multidimensionalidade. / This research aimed to identify and analyze the relationship between the formative trajectory and the conceptions of the formation of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry teachers participating in the Institutional Program of the Initiation to Teaching Grant (PIBID) in a municipality in the state of Rio de Janeiro. In this educational policy focused on teacher education - PIBID - licenciandos carry out pedagogical activities in public primary schools, being known scholarship recipients for teaching. Accompanying this action is a professor of the degree course, called an area coordinator, and a teacher of the school where the licenciando acts, called supervisor. Everyone involved in the program receives a scholarship grant. The teachers participating in the teaching initiation of the licensees involved in the program are recognized in this study as training teachers. The research is focused on the training of trainers, understanding that this training will focus on the preparation of new teachers. We set specific objectives as follows: 1) to map the training of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry teachers participating in PIBID in institutions of a municipality in the State of Rio de Janeiro; 2) to identify how the training process is developed within the PIBID, through the practices reported in this context; and 3) analyze the potential and limits of PIBID in relation to the continuing training of the training teachers participating in the program. We raise the following research question: what are the effects of participation in the PIBID for the continued formation of trainers, according to the vision of these professionals? In order to reach the proposed objectives and answer the research question, we support the philosophical approach of Critical Realism, established as guiding guideline of this study, since it allows a more in-depth understanding of the object of investigation, unfolding in a methodological perspective. We carried out two bibliographical surveys of the scientific productions on PIBID and an interview with Professor Hélder Eterno da Silveira, former Manager of the program. The target audience of the research is the professors of the Licenciatura, the school of basic education and licenciandos of the Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry areas participating in PIBID in educational institutions of a municipality of the State of Rio de Janeiro. A questionnaire was applied to all members of the program in the delimited areas - 72 participants. The data were analyzed through the Content Analysis - L. Bardin - and presented with the help of the SPSS program (Statistical Package for Social Sciences). The results indicate that i) the PIBID is very well evaluated by the participants; ii) the formators of the study experienced a model of initial formation inspired, mainly, in the model of technical rationality; iii) the conception of teaching that the trainers convey presents traces of technical rationality, but indications of practical rationality and critical rationality were also found; iv) the nature of the relationship established between the trainers shows signs of verticality; v) the structure made available for the development of the program in schools presents difficulties, which points to the precariousness of working conditions in public schools, indicating the relevance of the scholarship to the participants; vi) the lack of teachers in the exact area is a difficult problem to be faced; vii) almost all training teachers state that the program is an important means of continuing training. Despite the initial training more focused on the influence of technical rationality, the trainers participate in a program whose formative intentionality is established through the interaction between training institution and school. This interaction has accentuated its potential for the re-signification of the conception of formation, understanding the educational phenomenon in its complexity and multidimensionality.

Magister Educationis - MEd / This study investigates six Eritrean primary school teacher's perceptions of their pre-service education. Six primary school teachers from three different schools in two different regions of Eritrea were interviewed. The researcher investigated whether primary school teachers found the knowledge and/or skill acquired from their pre-service courses in the Asmara Teachers' Training Institute helpful to make and use effective lesson plans, prepare and use relevant teaching aids, assess their students' performance, prepare lesson content, manage the classroom effectively, and select and use relevant teaching methods. / South Africa

The research, investigating how a selected group of former BETD graduates understand and implement the theory of reflective practice, is a qualitative case study carried out in the Kavango region of Namibia. The study was shaped by one of the major policy emphases in Namibia’s post independence teacher education reform process - that of developing reflective teachers who actively participate in curriculum planning and take educational decisions based on their own judgment. A basic assumption underlying the study is that effective educational practice is dependent on practitioners thinking about what they are doing and acting on their reflections to improve practice. The study found that a fundamental problem preventing these teachers from implementing reflective practice in accordance with the Namibian educational reform process, is that the participating teachers neither understand the exact meaning of reflective practice nor do they have a common or shared view of the concept, in spite of their common qualifications. A key contributing factor to their problems with implementing reflective practice is the lack of a deep understanding of the reform epistemology and pedagogy revealed by the three former BETD graduates selected for the research. These are the teachers referred to in the first paragraph: The first teacher is Helena, a teacher at Duduva primary school, the second teacher is Kalishe, also teaching at the same school as Helena and the third teacher is Darius at Ntja Junior secondary school. The qualitative approach employed for the study served to illuminate and highlight specific issues related to the implementation of reflective practice that will be of considerable value for the researcher in her capacity as a teacher educator. These included among others: • The teacher’s need for an understanding of the key principles on which reflection is based and how to translate these into practice. • The need for teachers to have a clear understanding of the role that learners play in the reflective process. • The need to revisit the Basic Education Teacher Diploma (BETD) education programme, because for teachers to reflect they need a sound subject knowledge on which to base their judgments. These aspects, as well as the identification of the factors in the school system that contribute to the failure of reflective practice, provide a foundation for finding real solutions to the problems identified.

abstract: Preservice teachers are faced with many challenges as they enter their first year of teaching. This is particularly true when dealing with future-ready skills, such as technology integration in K-12 classrooms, an area where many higher education or teaching faculty may not feel comfortable or fluent enough to support preservice teachers or to model in their own instruction. This action research study aimed to understand how faculty develop Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) in ways that will help them to enhance their instruction and model technology integration for preservice teachers. An online community was created that allowed teacher educators to interact synchronously or asynchronously to collaborate, learn, and practice new technological skills. This community served as a place for teacher educators to play with new technology and to share their ideas and practices with their peers—ideally to begin the process of developing the knowledge and fluency with technology that would allow them to better support teacher education students. Both qualitative and quantitative data were used to explore faculty’s development of TPACK. A pre-survey, retrospective pre-survey, and post-survey were administered and analyzed. Also, interviews of participants and observations of the online community were used to collect qualitative data. The results of the study showed an increase in participants’ confidence for selecting technologies to enhance their instruction after they participated in the online community. Also, the participants felt more confident using strategies that combine content, technologies, and teaching approaches in their classrooms or other learning environments. In Chapter 5, a discussion of the findings was presented, in which several main implications are shared for researchers who might be engaged in similar work. Also, the lessons learned from this action research are explained, as well as the limitations experienced in this study. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Educational Leadership and Policy Studies 2019

The research presented here is of a sort almost never seen in today's social science work. Attempted here is a hermeneutical examination of teacher education literature of the 1970's, with the goal of revealing what otherwise would and generally does go unseen by most who practice and study teacher education, the tacitly held and taken-for-granted pre-judgements or prejudices which make such teacher education the reality it is. That is to say, the aim of this research is to "go behind what is said" in this literature in order to reveal the questions to which the literature's contents are the answer. This is necessary because such prejudices, such questions, determine in the first place the sorts of answers which can be given, by excluding other questions and points of origin, and thereby structure the form and content of teacher education as it is lived. The more specific purpose of this "going behind what is said," apart from merely revealing such prejudices, is, however, to examine them after they are revealed in order to reach a judgement as to whether or not some portion or, perhaps, all of these prejudices reflect a belief in and devotion to the alienated consciousness of technological thinking. This revelation and this judgement are presented in a chapter of nine sections: Professionalism; Management, Control, and Systems; Humans as Substances; Rationalism, Empiricism, Knowledge, and Morality; Learning, Teaching, and Academics; Education as School; Selling Materialism; Meritocracy and the Perfectability of Humans; Freedom, Participation, Community, and Power. These investigations leave little doubt, it seems, that teacher education and teacher educators in the United States during the 1970's, and by inference today also, are engrossed in and committed to technological thinking as the founding source of such work, and that such belief and commitment threaten not only teacher education as a viable human event but also the entire education "enterprise" as an authentic activity of human living.

Nous avons cherché à identifier les modèles de santé et d’éducation à la santé sous-jacents aux conceptions des formateurs ainsi que les obstacles et les points d’appui à la mise en oeuvre de formations en éducation à la santé, tels qu’ils étaient perçus par les formateurs. Nous avons également déterminé les caractéristiques et les invariants des pratiques idéelles de formation en éducation à la santé pour proposer une modélisation qui pourra servir d’outil lors de formations de formateurs.La démarche que nous avons proposée s’est déroulée en deux temps. Nous avons d’abord fait un état des lieux des pratiques en interrogeant, par téléphone, avec un questionnaire, 138 formateurs d’IUFM et en étudiant les plans de formation. Dans un second temps, nous avons mené une analyse qualitative en interviewant 16 formateurs, par téléphone, au cours d’entretiens directifs, que nous avons ensuite intégralement retranscrits et analysés à l’aide de la méthode d’analyse de contenu.Les résultats de l’analyse qualitative montrent que les formateurs interrogés ont une conception globale de la santé et de l’éducation à la santé, centrée sur la personne ce qui influe favorablement sur la mise en oeuvre d’actions d’éducation à la santé en formation. Nous avons également mis en évidence que l’ensemble des formateurs interrogés avaient intégré l’éducation à la santé dans leur identité professionnelle : ils se sentent compétents, même partiellement, et ils considèrent qu’elle fait partie de leur mission. Cependant, la majorité d’entre eux présente des pratiques (idéelles et déclarées) de formation en éducation à la santé qui suivent un modèle applicationniste, centré sur les acquisitions, ou un modèle didactique, centré sur la mise en place de projets mais le modèle holistique, centré sur l’approche globale de la santé des personnes, reste très marginal et ne fait pas partie de l’idée qu’ils se font de leur rôle de formateur. Le manque de formation des formateurs est le principal obstacle c’est pourquoi nous avons élaboré des outils et nous présentons quelques propositions pour la formation de formateurs. / We have attempted to identify the models of health and health education underlying the conceptions of teacher educators, and the obstacles and grounds for implementing training in health education, as were seen by the trainers. We also determined the characteristics and constants of ideal practice of training health education so as to propose a modelling tool that can be used for the training of teacher educators.Our approach was developed in two stages. We first interviewed 138 IUFM teacher educators by telephone using a questionnaire and teacher training curricula to establish an inventory of teacher training practices. In a second step, we conducted a qualitative analysis by interviewing 16 teachers, by telephone, during structured interviews, which we then fully transcribed and analyzed using the method of content analysis.The results of the qualitative analysis show that the interviewed teacher educators have a holistic approach to health and health education, focusing on the individual, and which has a positive impact on the implementation of actions for health education training. We also found that all the teacher educators interviewed had adopted health education as part of their professional activity: they feel at least partially competent in health education, and consider it to be a part of their mission. Moreover, most of the interviewed teacher educators showed practices in health education (both ideals of practices and reported personal practices) deriving from either an applicationist model, focusing on conceptual learning, or from a didactic model, focusing on the implementation of projects. The model holistic, focusing on the global approach to human health, was very marginal and not part of teacher educator’s perceptions of their role in training future teachers. The lack of training for the teacher educators was thus found to be the main obstacle in developing effective health education, leading us to developed tools and make proposals for the training of teacher educators

This cross sectional survey study examined the perceptions of classroom teachers in urban regions of Kars Province including its towns and teacher educators in Kafkas University about the new elementary school curriculum in Kars Province. It also revealed their perceptions about the strengths and weaknesses of the elementary school curriculum, students&rsquo / educational needs from the window of local characteristics of Kars, and classroom teachers&rsquo / needs with regard to the new elementary school curriculum. The data were collected from classroom teachers based on the responses they gave on a survey questionnaire and from interview data with teacher educators that was collected through a semi-structured interview form. Data gathered were analyzed utilizing content analysis method. The major findings of the study revealed the following about that the new elementary school curriculum: (1) active student understanding and common skills were mentioned / (2) its appropriateness to students&rsquo / level / (3) relevancy to students&rsquo / everyday life / (4) its comprehensiveness / and (5) variety that were somehow achieved. On the other hand, the findings also showed that there were problems with regard to the new elementary school curriculum: (1) lack of parental involvement to educational process in Kars / (2) over crowding of classrooms / (3) insufficient materials in schools / (4) insufficient in meeting local characteristics and conditions of Kars.

Changes in assessment practice in education are a global issue. Colleges of Education in Namibia also need to accommodate these changes in their training programs for student teachers, to model their practice of all modes of assessment in teaching and learning. Emphasis should be placed on assessment for learning, which is formative in nature. This qualitative case study investigated the following questions: How do teacher educators understand the principles and strategies of formative assessment and how do teacher educators implement formative assessment in their own teaching, which in turn serves as an example to their student teachers. I used three methods of collecting data: interviews, observation and document analysis. The data identify a range of findings in the teacher educators' professed understanding of formative assessment and how it is implemented in their own practice. The data also identify challenges facing the teacher educators in terms of setting a good example to their student teachers in the area of formative assessment. This study also offers suggestions for further studies on formative assessment. These include a suggestion for teacher educators to look at their own practice of formative assessment principles and strategies. A major cross department study could be conducted that includes teacher educators from different subject areas to see to how the implementation of formative assessment in the college varies from one department to another. A third possibility suggests a study involving student teachers from various areas of specialization in the college to see to what extent the implementation of formative assessment in the college affects their future assessment practices.
