Analisando o desenvolvimento profissional de um licenciando em química : relações entre concepções epistemológicas e modelos didáticos

Abstract

This paper comprises a case study within the scope of Chemistry teacher training that aimed to analyze the process of professional development progression of a future teacher. Therefore, we sought to identify the didactic models present in the Work Plans developed in primary schools by graduate students during supervised training. To do so, Rafael Porlán Ariza and Ana Garcia Rivero’s theoretical foundation about the knowledge evolution of the teacher’s professional knowledge was employed. The investigation results made evident that, during the internship period, the teacher progressed to stages deemed to be desirable to the professional development process. Moreover, evidence was found of the relation between the different academic course experiences and the teaching practices employed by the future teacher. Thus, contributions are pointed out for the comprehension about the path of professional development progression of teachers under training.
