A história oral da constituição de uma identidade do Mestrado em Ensino de Ciências e Matemática da UEPB

Abstract

This work presents the constitution of an identity of Professional Master in Teaching Science and Mathematics/UEPB. The theoretical-methodological process is constituted by the composition of the documentary corpus consisting of oral sources, (semi-structured interviews carried out with the teachers who participated in their creation, implementation and development) following the theoretical-methodological reference of the Oral History Meihy (1998) based in one of the presentations of the course, structure of disciplines and cataloguing of dissertations (author, advisor, defense year, school level, content area, thematic focus, research line, area of concentration, theoretical-methodological base and final works), using as a theoretical reference Megid (1998). It has been observed that the identity is in the direction of greater training in the area of teaching, which is corroborated by the changes in the curriculum and the final works, with high incidence of educational techniques (elaboration of methodologies, current plans for use of virtual environment, conceptual approach, studies with research groups), even these researches taking the immersion of the teacher at his/her school reality and knowledge of the problems existing in it as reference points for the development to be proposed.
