O estágio supervisionado na formação inicial de professores é o momento no qual os licenciandos são inseridos, como professor, em seu ambiente profissional. Para se compreender o lugar do estágio na formação docente é necessário investigar como os saberes docentes dos licenciandos são elaborados durante essa formação. A pesquisa aqui apresentada possui como tema central a produção de saberes docentes por licenciandos em física durante o estágio supervisionado investigativo em sua formação inicial. Um estágio que envolve uma dimensão de ensino, caracterizada pelas atividades de regência dos licenciandos, e uma dimensão pesquisa, que envolve os licenciandos em um processo de pesquisa sobre a sua própria prática. Utilizamos a conceituação de saber como constructo de pesquisa e a centralidade dos saberes experienciais na prática profissional docente, tal como propostos por Tardif (2008), a fim de compreendermos a elaboração e a validação de saberes docentes pelos licenciandos durante o estágio supervisionado investigativo. Utilizamos também o Conhecimento Pedagógico do Conteúdo (PCK), como esquema teórico de análise com o intuito de caracterizar as interações existentes entre os saberes docentes relacionados às atividades de regência desenvolvidas pelos licenciandos. O pesquisador, como supervisor de estágio, orientou, durante um semestre, dois licenciandos de uma universidade pública de São Paulo no desenvolvimento de seus estágios. A análise dos dados envolveu dois recortes: um primeiro longitudinal, a partir das gravações das reuniões de supervisão entre os licenciandos e o pesquisador, além de uma apresentação final de estágio e uma entrevista final individual, que propiciou uma linha cronológica da elaboração e validação dos saberes docentes conforme o desenvolvimento do estágio supervisionado investigativo; e um segundo recorte transversal, com base em cinco unidades temáticas de análise, originárias da primeira etapa de análise, que nos permitiu esmiuçar a elaboração e validação dos saberes docentes desenvolvidos pelos licenciandos durante o estágio supervisionado investigativo. A partir desses dois recortes analisados de forma mais descritiva, foi possível delinear um melhor entendimento da relação teoria e prática e da centralidade dos saberes experienciais no decorrer do estágio supervisionado investigativo. A percepção da centralidade dos saberes experienciais e do movimento do PCK na atividade de regência dos licenciandos no desenvolvimento do estágio supervisionado investigativo nos possibilitaram refletir sobre a formação inicial de professores e propor redirecionamentos que podem contribuir para uma formação teórico-prática mais efetiva. / The supervised practicum in initial teacher education is the moment in which the pre-service teachers are inserted, as a teacher, into their professional environment. To understand the place of internship in teacher education is necessary to investigate how the teachers knowledge pre-service teachers are prepared during the training. This research focus on the development of teachers knowledge by pre-service teachers during a investigate supervised practicum occurred in their initial teacher education. A investigate supervised practicum comprehends both the teaching dimension, the latter having as its main characteristic the teaching activities carried out by the pre-service teachers, and the research dimension, which takes into account a process whereby pre-service teachers examine their own pedagogical practices. The concept of knowing as a research construct and the centrality of experiential knowledge in teachers professional practice are considered, as proposed by Tardif (2008), so as to understand the development and validation of teachers knowledge by pre-service teachers throughout the investigate supervised practicum. Moreover, the so-called Pedagogical Content Knowledge (PCK) was also applied as a theoretical framework of analysis in order to describe the interactions prevailing in the teachers knowledge related to the practicum accomplished by the pre-service teachers. The researcher, as the practicum supervisor, guided and assisted two pre-service teachers of a public university of São Paulo over one semester in the development of their practicum. The analysis of the data involved two perspectives: firstly, a longitudinal one, which regarded the recorded supervision meetings between the pre-service teachers and the researcher, as well as a practicum final presentation, and an individual final interview, which provided a timeline of the of the development and validation of teachers knowledge as the supervised pre-service teachers practicum progressed; and secondly, a transversal perspective, based on five thematic units of analysis, originating in the first stage of analysis, which allowed us to look deeper the development and validation the teachers knowledge by pre-service teachers during the supervised practicum. From these two perspectives examined in more descriptive way, it was possible to devise a better understanding of the theory-practice relationship and the centrality of experiential knowledge in the accomplishment of the investigate supervised pre-service teachers practicum. The perception of the centrality of experiential knowledge and the movement of PCK in the teaching activities of pre-service teachers in the development of investigative supervised practium, allowed us to reflect on the initial teacher education and propose redirects that can contribute to a more effective theory-practice relationship.

Esta pesquisa foi realizada em um Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia e dedicou-se ao estudo de alguns conceitos de Física Quântica na formação de professores de Física, sob a perspectiva do referencial sociocultural, tendo o foco dirigido à complementaridade de segundo tipo, uma das teses da interpretação de Copenhagen, e ao emaranhamento quântico. O marco teóricometodológico adotado foi a teoria da mediação de Vygotsky e a filosofia translinguística de Bakhtin. Foram realizados três estudos qualitativos com o objetivo de investigar quais são os significados socialmente construídos sobre conceitos de Física Quântica por professores de Física em formação, sendo um estudo piloto e duas intervenções didáticas junto a uma disciplina de Física Moderna e Contemporânea em nível de graduação. As atividades de ensino foram conduzidas a partir de exposições teóricas e simulação computacional com o Interferômetro Virtual de Mach-Zehnder, orientada por roteiros exploratórios. A partir do estudo dos fenômenos da interferência e emaranhamento quânticos nesse dispositivo semiótico, buscou-se compreender em que medida as ações mediadas pelo uso do software como recurso didático atuaram no sentido de promover entre os professores uma construção conceitual colaborativa sobre esses conceitos da Física Quântica. A análise do discurso, fundamentada em conceitos bakhtinianos, possibilitou uma melhor compreensão sobre o processo de construção de conceitos culturalmente válidos acerca da interferência quântica, da complementaridade e do emaranhamento. No contexto explorado, verificamos que se estabeleceu o dilema da manutenção de visões antagônicas, o que pode ser evidenciado a partir dos modelos explicativos elaborados pelos estudantes. Para aqueles que atribuíram um caráter corpuscular aos fótons, os fenômenos intermediários permanecem como um conflito ainda não resolvido, enquanto para os demais a complementaridade onda-partícula passou a compor um nova classe de conceitos. A noção de não-localidade, necessária para compreender o emaranhamento quântico, não foi reconhecida pelos estudantes, evidenciando a forte presença de noções clássicas nos modelos explicativos utilizados na tentativa de obter uma explicação plausível para o fenômeno. / The research presented in this thesis was developed in a Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology is directed to research about an approach of the some foundations of Quantum Physics in pre-service teachers’ training, based on the sociocultural perspective and this work focuses on the second kind of complementarity, one of the thesis of the Copenhagen interpretation, and the quantum entanglement. The theoretical and methodological framework adopted in this research is the Vygotsky’s theory of mediation and Bakhtin’s translinguistics philosophy. Three qualitative researches were performed in order to investigate which are the socially constructed meanings on QP foundations in the context of pre-service teachers’ training: one in an introductory course with physics teachers and two along a didactic intervention during a pre-service teachers’ training course on Modern and Contemporary Physics. The teaching activities were conducted mediated by theoretical lectures and computer simulation using the Virtual Mach- Zehnder Interferometer, conducted by the exploratory guide. From the study of interference phenomena and quantum entanglement in this semiotic tool, one tries to understand how the pupils actions are mediated by the software in the sense of promoting a collaborative conceptual construction among teachers about these foundations of QP. Discourse analysis grounded on Bakhtin’s concepts allowed us to evaluate the potentialities of the software and a better understanding of the process of conceptual construction that are culturally valid about quantum interference, complementarity and entanglement. In this context we perceive that was created the dilemma of maintaining competing visions, which can be evidenced from the explanatory models designed by the students. For the students that admitted a corpuscular character to photons so that intermediate phenomena remain as a unresolved cognitive conflict, while for others the wave - particle complementarity has became a new class of concepts. The non-locality notion, pre-requisite to understand the quantum entanglement, wasn’t learned by the students, demonstrating the strong presence of classical notions in explanatory models used to obtain a plausible explanation for the phenomenon.

Partiu-se do entendimento que o grupo de professores em formação poderia ser visto como um sistema complexo (LARSEN-FREEMAN, 1997; LARSEN-FREEMAN e CAMERON, 2007; 2008; PAIVA, 2005; VETROMILLE-CASTRO, 2007; 2008; MARTINS, 2008; 2009) e que o processo de constituição identitária também poderia ser investigado sob esse mesmo viés (SADE, 2009; SCOZ, 2011; SILVA, 2000; NORTON, 2000). As características dos sistemas complexos foram estabelecidas a partir de Bertalanffy (2009), Gleick (1988), Morin (2011) e Lewin (1999), e os valores foram identificados conforme a definição de Piaget (1973) para escala comum de valores qualitativos. Esperava-se, inicialmente, a identificação de comportamentos autônomos (HOLEC, 1981) e colaborativos (PAAS, 2005) na interação dos alunos como professores em formação desde o início da atividade dos blogs, durante o 3º semestre. Contudo, ao longo das análises, percebeu-se que nesse período, o grupo, em geral, apresentou comportamento de aprendizes de inglês. A partir do sexto semestre, o comportamento predominante foi de professores de inglês em formação, embora as atuações dos pequenos grupos e dos alunos tenham variado ao longo desses períodos. A motivação foi um fator presente em todos os semestres, em diferentes intensidades, e acredita-se que também seja parte da função de professores. Foi possível constatar que as identidades de fato não são fixas e que mesmo uma identidade docente, de um professor em formação, altera-se sem que os indivíduos deixem de ser professores. / In this dissertation, it was analyzed the behaviors and values that were part of the scale of common values of a pre-service English teachers’ group in their interactions on an educational blog during four semesters of theirs Language Teaching Bachelor’s Course. The aim was to investigate the process of identity constitution of this group in the different semesters. The research was based on the understanding that the pre-service teachers’ group could be seen as a complex system (LARSEN-FREEMAN, 1997; LARSEN-FREEMAN e CAMERON, 2007; 2008; PAIVA, 2005; VETROMILLE-CASTRO, 2007; 2008; MARTINS, 2008; 2009) and that the process of identity constitution could also be seen in the same perspective. The complex systems’ characteristics were established from Bertalanffy (2009), Gleick (1988), Morin (2011) e Lewin (1999), and the values were identified according to Piaget’s (1973) definition for scale of common qualitative values. Initially, the researcher expected that the autonomous (HOLEC, 1981) and collaborative (PAAS, 2005) behaviors would appear in the interaction of the students as pre-service teachers since the beginning of the blog activity, in the third semester. However, the researcher perceived that the group, in general, had the behavior of English language learners. From the sixth semester on, the predominant behavior was the preservice teachers’, although the small groups and the individual students’ behaviors have ranged during the semesters. The motivation was an important factor, which appeared in different ways, in all semesters the blog was used. Besides, the motivation is believed to be part of teachers’ behavior. The analyzes demonstrated that the identities are not fixed and that a teacher’s identity change even though the individuals do not stop being teachers.

Developing professional expertise of prospective teachers not only in terms of theoretical knowledge but also in terms of competencies of designing challenging and cognitively activating learning opportunities in the mathematics classroom is certainly one of the key aims of internship phases in pre-service mathematics teacher training. As mathematics-related theoretical contents of teacher training and practice-related learning opportunities of school internships are not always linked in an optimal way, this paper aims at discussing a model of an intensive internship phase combined with a triple coaching approach partly integrated in a course accompanying the internship phase.

This study aims to contribute to knowledge about to what extent pre-school teacher students feel ready to work with digitalization in pre-schools after completing their teacher education. The participants are Swedish pre-school teacher students from the last two semesters in their teacher education programme, since we searched for students who will soon start to work in pre-schools. The method for this study is a digital semi-structured survey with both open and closed questions. The study is therefore a qualitative study with quantitative elements. The result of this study shows that the students claims that they have a good knowledge about how pre-schools work with digitalization and that they are ready to work with this subject after completing the teacher education programme. This study however shows that the majority of the respondents only have a moderate knowledge about the concept “adequate digital competence” and this knowledge depends on which university they belonged to. This is an interesting finding in this study because of the writing in the Swedish pre-school curriculum that claims that the pre-service teachers will be responsible to give the children opportunities to develop their adequate digital competence. How will the future pre-school teachers succeed in their new role as pre-school teachers if they don’t have the skills and knowledge themselves regarding this subject. / Denna studie syftar till att bidra med kunskap om i vilken utsträckning blivande förskollärare känner sig redo för att arbete med förskolans digitaliseringsarbete efter avklarad förskollärarutbildning. Studiens urval är förskolllärarstudenter som studerar i slutet på sin förskollärarutbildning för att säkerhetsställa att de tagit del av någon form av undervisning om ämnet under sin förskollärarutbildning. Metoden för denna studie är en digital semistrukturerad enkät med både förkodade och öppna frågor. Denna studie är en kvalitativ studie med kvantitativa inslag. Resultatet i studien visar att de blivande förskollärarna själva upplever att de har goda kunskaper och kompetenser om förskolans digitaliseringsarbete och att de är redo att arbeta med detta efter avklarad förskollärarutbildning. Något som denna studie dock visar är att majoriteten av respondenterna inte har tillräckligt med kunskaper för vad adekvat digital kompetens handlar om samt att vilken kunskap studenterna fått med sig beror på vilket lärosäte de tillhört. Detta blir en intressant utgångspunkt för denna studie då det står tydligt i förskolans läroplan, Lpfö18 (Skolverket, 2018) att det är förskollärarens ansvar att ge barnen möjlighet att utveckla sina adekvata digitala kompetenser. Hur ska då de blivande förskollärarna lyckas med sitt uppdrag om det själva inte har den kompetens samt kunskap som behövs för deras blivande profession.

This research study was motivated by a hypothesis, generated on the basis of formal and informal observations, personal and professional experiences, discussions with prospective teachers and a pilot study conducted by this author; that pre-service teachers have a high level of mathematics anxiety and negative attitudes about mathematics. The primary purpose of this research was to examine the relationship between mathematics anxiety and pre-service teachers. The secondary purposes of this study were to examine the relationship between anxiety and performance and to examine the relationship between math anxiety, test anxiety, and stereotype threat. A quantitative experimental research design was used to investigate the research questions. The population consisted of prospective teachers at colleges and universities in Louisiana. The sets of data are mathematics anxiety of prospective teachers, a test anxiety inventory and a mathematics performance task. A personal data questionnaire was used to gather demographic information and attitudinal information about the participants. The implications of this study for elementary teacher education programs point to increased attention on the mathematics anxiety of pre-service teachers. This process is two-fold. One, it is recommended that pre-service teachers be made aware of their mathematics anxiety level and their attitudes about mathematics and two, it is recommended that teacher education programs acknowledge and address the importance of these affective variables and their role in pedagogy.

The focus of this research project was to determine whether thematic unit instruction or traditional, single-subject instruction was perceived to be the more effective and engaging way of teaching as decided by pre-service teachers. Research has shown that incorporating multiple subjects into one unit or topic of study helps to create more engagement and connections to which students can relate. In creating these connections, students can relate the content to their real life and in turn, better comprehend and retain the material. The pre-service teachers attend the University of Central Florida's College of Education and Human Performance. They voluntarily participated in completing a survey about their perceptions of single subject instruction versus thematic unit instruction. In the survey, the pre-service teachers seemed to be varied on what they believed was a better method of instruction for their future students. The pre-service teachers were split 50/50 as to whether they will teach traditionally, single-subject, or thematically. The pre-service teachers were unanimous in the idea that if they had the support of other teachers and administration as well as resources and research to guide them, that thematic instruction is a method of teaching that they would consider using. Nearly all of the teachers surveyed referred back to doing what is in the best interest of their students.
