The theoretical and methodological assumptions of this research imply a move away from a positivist empiricist approach with its reliance on the real, the measurable and the predictable towards an interactive and collaborative methodology situated in a constructivist and social epistemology. This thesis comprises a recursive intervention in the researching therapist's life. The author sets out on a voyage of self-research to investigate her "choreography of coexistence" (Maturana & Varela, 1987, p.248), due to curiosity about personal and professional impact. The purpose is to create a map of relational modes that in itself creates shifts: in the therapist. This invention-orientated research creates the context of the researcher and moves through processes: the writing of autobiography, detailed contextual description, the interpreting of feedback, and deconstruction. The contents that pour forth are many different narratives tracking the evolvement of the self in the original family, through further definition in new relationships and the expansion of roles in many professional systems both with clients and colleagues. " Extracts from conversations provide new perspectives and feedback about impact. Thus a continual 'provoking of voices' becomes a thesis theme that highlights the researcher's structure, organisation and interpersonal processes. An emancipatory and developmental process is documented through the researching therapist's positioning as actor, observer and then critic in relationship to the data. Patterns and themes emerge that facilitate both self- differentiation and connectedness and many new head-heart connections. This new knowledge could enable the professional's skilful and intuitive use of self. The self comes into being as it reflects itself, ·so a recursive process evolves where looking at the self operates on the products of its own operations. This is an active process, where the researching therapist constructs an experiential reality. Given the accountability that accrues from constructing such a reality, a focus on pragmatic, aesthetic and ethical criteria is incorporated. This research, like the practice of therapy, is a departure from attempts to demonstrate what is already known to modes of research that are recursive and improvisational. / Psychology / D.

Foi desenvolvido no âmbito dos cursos de licenciatura em Ciências Biológicas da União Metropolitana de Educação e Cultura (UNIME) e da Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana (UEFS), cujos Projetos Pedagógicos de Curso (PPC) estão em consonância com as normativas legais sobre formação de professores para a educação básica, derivadas da Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional (LDB). O estudo teve abordagem qualitativa, de cunho etnometodológico com centralidade nos princípios da etnopesquisa crítica e implicada. Como dispositivos de coleta de informações constam as narrativas dos docentes (Memoriais de Formação e Entrevistas Semiestruturadas), bem como os Diários de Observação de aulas e reuniões nas duas IES e respectivos PPCs. As informações assim produzidas foram analisadas a partir de procedimentos da Análise de Conteúdo. A interpretação, de base hermenêutica, se deu ao longo da pesquisa e valorizou o contexto de produção da linguagem, das práticas e dos etnométodos dos docentes. No processo de categorização dos processos formativos foram agrupadas as experiências relativas ao contexto familiar; à escolha profissional; à formação formal; à atividade profissional, incluídas pessoas de referência. Destacam-se a ênfase ao aprendizado pela prática, caracteristicamente isolada e pouco refletida, a falta de ações de formação continuada e a imitação. As identificações dos docentes com a profissão docente ou de biólogo, bem como os conflitos e tensões de identidade reflete um fenômeno de hibridação epistemológica e formativa. Na análise das implicações dos docentes na formação dos seus alunos a ênfase nos processos afetivos e libidinais como forma de vinculação à função de formador foi surpreendente. Os docentes também estabelecem implicações relativas à dedicação ao ensino; ao envolvimento com ações do curso (inclusive proposta curricular); às ações de articulação teoria/prática e ao investimento no desenvolvimento profissional. A legislação educacional pósLDB representa um marco acerca da formação de professores no Brasil, que está relacionada à Prática como Componente Curricular (PCC) e suas formas de recontextualização curricular. O Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (TCC) também se mostrou relevante. Assim as opções da UNIME e UEFS, ao favorecerem a implicação dos professores de disciplinas específicas na formação do aluno, avançam em superar dicotomias das licenciaturas, notadamente a formação inicial/prática profissional, bem como as dimensões pedagógica/específica no curso. No entanto, fica evidente a necessidade de investimento pessoal e institucional na profissionalização da docência por processos que considerem os estudos sobre educação de adultos e as experiências de caráter colaborativo de forma a transformar a realidade da formação de professores na universidade brasileira. / ABSTRACT This research involves the investigation of formative, identity and implicational processes for university lecturers who teach specific subjects to train their students as Science and Biology teachers. This was developed within the domain of degree courses in Biological Sciences at the Metropolitan Union of Education and Culture (União Metropolitana de Educação e Cultura - UNIME) and State University of Feira de Santana (Universidade Estadual de Feira de Santana - UEFS), whose Pedagogical Course Projects (PPCs) are in line with the legal regulations on training teachers for basic education, deriving from the Law of Directives and Bases for National Education (LDB). The study had a qualitative approach, of an ethnomethodological nature, centered on the principles of critical and implied ethnoresearch. The lecturers’ accounts (training memoirs and semi-structured interviews), and Observation Diaries from lessons and meetings at the two higher education establishments (IES) and respective PPCs comprise information collection devices. The information produced was analyzed using Content Analysis procedures. Interpretation, of a hermeneutical basis, took place throughout the research and gave value to the context of the lecturers’ language production, practices and ethnomethods. Experiences related to the familiar context when categorizing the training processes were grouped together: professional choice; formal training and professional activity, including references. The emphasis on practical learning which is characteristically isolated and receives little reflection, the lack of continued training activities and imitations are highlighted. The lecturers’ identification with the teaching profession or as biologists and the conflicts and tensions of identity reflect a phenomenon of epistemological and formative hybridization. On analyzing the lecturers’ involvement when training their students, the emphasis on affective and libidinal processes as a way of linking to their role as teachers was surprising. The lecturers also establish involvement with regards to dedication to teaching and course actions (including the curricular proposal); connecting theory/practical activities and investment in professional development. Educational legislation following the LDB represents a landmark for teacher training in Brazil. This is related to Practice as a Curricular Component (PCC) and its forms of curricular recontextualization. The Course Completion Project (TCC) was also seen to be significant. Therefore the options at UNIME at UEFS, which favor the involvement of lecturers of specific subjects when teaching students, make progress in overcoming the dichotomies of degree courses, notably initial training/professional practice and the pedagogical/specific dimensions of the course. However, the need for personal and institutional investment to professionalize the teaching staff using a process which considers studies on adult education and collaborative experiences in order to transform the reality of teacher training in Brazilian universities is clear.
