Resumen
The importance of the Professionals Master in the field of science education is
revealed by the recognition that they provide, to practicing teachers, in particular,
training spaces for reflection and application of knowledge. This work appears in the
context of the project "Research and training in teaching science and mathematics: a
cutout of academic production in the northeast and overview of formative action in
basic education" on the Centre for Education program, which main objective was to
conduct studies description, analysis and evaluation of the academic production of
Postgraduate Programs in Science Teaching of UFRPE, UFRN and UEPB and
investigate the contribution of continuing education in stricto sensu level, of
graduated teachers to improve the quality of basic education . We sought to examine
a cut of academic production PPGECNM / UFRN, taking as reference dissertations of
Natural Sciences, finished between the years 2005 and 2012, which have developed
and applied educational products for high school students. More specifically we
sought to conduct a general characterization of the dissertations analyzed for basic
descriptors, to understand if and how the official documents governing the Brazilian
education, especially science education, subsidized development of dissertations
and identify current trends for science teaching are addressed and which ones are
used in preparing the product of dissertations. The survey was based on
documentary analysis, a type of qualitative approach in which the documents are
objects of study in themselves. The results revealed that most of the work was
developed in public schools, on subjects of physics and chemistry. During analytical
reading of the text of the dissertations was observed that, in its construction, most of
them addressed somehow, official documents governing the Brazilian educational
system, that the products are basically teaching units and teaching approaches that
are more focused on Experimentation and History and Philosophy of Science
