Políticas de formação e gestão pedagógica universitária o desafio da simetria invertida

Abstract

This is an investigative research in the area of teacher education and educational management in the field of Natural and Exact Sciences. It is emphasized that educational management is composed at the same time as the teachers are compromised with their teaching project, organizes and articulating the necessary knowledge for the student’s formation and, consequently, for their own development. Thus, this study is a bibliographical research, aiming to examine relevant theoretical and conceptual definitions in order to (re)think educational management in initial teacher training, and its reflection within basic education, in pursuit of an education of quality in the field of Natural and Exact Sciences. In relation to this issue, it is known that college professors have the responsibility and social commitment to extensive training of future professionals that goes beyond the mere transmission of knowledge. Thus, it is a concern to reflect on the relationship between class management of professors in undergraduate courses and the training offered to prospective teachers of basic education. This relationship presents some ambiguity, due to the fact that at the same time that teachers perform the management of their classes in order to provide a good education for their students, they are not trained and prepared for such. Therefore, the management of their classes is governed by knowledge conventionalized in their daily life, arising from individual efforts, under the perspective of university pedagogy.
