Abordagem temática freiriana na formação continuada de professores da educação básica: possíveis caminhos

Abstract

Studies show that working with the thematic approach has had the potential to overcome linear and fragmented teaching. Thus, this paper proposes to work with the Freiriana Thematic Approach, having as a research problem: what are the limitations faced in the school, by teachers of basic education, in the development of activities marked by the Freiriana Thematic Approach in High School? The specific objectives of this work are: i) to develop the thematic research process, in collaboration with teachers, in a high school; ii) map difficulties and potentialities faced by school teachers during the thematic research process; iii) to point out training needs for the teaching activity in line with the Freiriana Thematic Approach in the school. To that end, four teachers from a public school in the city of Caçapava do Sul participated in the research. This is a qualitative research and the data obtained are analyzed through the Discursive Textual Analysis. The results were categorized in: i) Space-time for collective actions; ii) Autonomy and Freedom Practice; iii) Criticity and awareness. It is pointed out that, in order to be able to implement thematic research, it is necessary for teachers to prepare collective actions that must be built through the structuring of public policies.
