Formação de professores alfabetizadores no ensino público: uma proposta sócio-histórico-cultural

Abstract

This research has as its aim to critically understand how a teaching-learning course in a public school of 1st year of Ensino Fundamental created opportunities of learning and development in the pedagogical actions concerned to such study. The following questions were taken into account: What are the senses and meanings given by teachers in classroom to reading and writing teaching-learning process as well as the roles of teachers and students which emerge from the classes in the first year of Ensino Fundamental ? What are the senses and meanings involved in such issues, comprehended in the reflective session and shared among teachers and researcher? This research was carried out with three 1st grade Basic Education teachers at a public school in the city of São Paulo. It is based on the Cultural Historical Activity Theory (CHAT) and the work produced by Vygotsky (1930-1934), Leontiev (1978) and Engeström (1987, 2001). Teacher training is looked at as a social-cultural historical activity in which the classes and the meetings may generate transformations. The methodology adopted is the Critical Collaboration Research as discussed by Magalhães (2010) and the LACE group researchers (Language in the Context of School Activities) which aim is to create possibilities of negotiations and is centrally based on the critical and collaborative relations among participants. The data were analyzed prioritizing the declarative, discursive and linguistic aspects, based on the senses of argument. The results showed the initial senses attributed by both teachers and researcher concerning reading and writing teaching-learning as well as the roles of teacher and students were collaboratively changing throughout the research leading the teachers to a new type of relation with their students; students to a new relation with their teachers; and researcher and teachers to a new view of teaching learning
