Da universidade à sala de aula: percepções dos egressos do Curso de Ciências Biológicas do CES/UFCG sobre sua formação docente.

Abstract

This research was motivated by the importance of identifying and analyzing the contributions and shortcomings of academic training for teaching practice in everyday alumni of the undergraduate program in Biological Sciences and the Center for Health Education, Federal University of Campina Grande — CES / UFCG. The university expansion in Brazil carne with the goal of democratizing access to higher education, and also train professionals to meet the demand especially in the countryside. In the case of CES experienced the challenges of teacher education in a context of expansion. Therefore, this research carne from the need to evaluate the work of a young campus, in the context of university expansion in a region devoid of teachers in the sciences of nature, that among many absences have teacher training with parallel activity to the development of research in hard areas of Biological Sciences mischaracterize somehow the degree course. Our research intends to investigate this universe through the speech of teachers. The results showed that the university has a significant importance in our academic and professional providing a learning experience in many ways unique and effective, but with some difficulties in articulating the theoretical and practical performance. T hus. the results demonstrated that teacher training is globally according to an idealized model applicationist knowledge, where students attend some classes of disciplines that are essential for propositional theories. It is necessary for universities to offer its teachers with the challenge of rethinking the " good teaching" and construct new paradigms for student learning. It was found that most teachers did not intend to follow in education and over time were identifying themselves with the area and are now teachers of Science and Biology. The study was aimed at analyzing some point and points in this formation giving space for teachers to demonstrate in their statements on the possible absences course so that we can improve it.
