Configurações da prática como componente curricular nos cursos de licenciatura em ciências biológicas de universidades públicas de Goiás: sentidos e implicações

Abstract

The component "practice" became a concern in the formation of the curricula of teacher training courses from 1995. In this way, the CNE / CP 2/2002 establishing the Practice as a Curricular Component (PCC –Prática como Componente Curricular), which has remained in the legislation for degree courses such as Resolution nº 2, from 1 July 2015 provides. But the CCP is still poorly understood in the space of teacher training, in addition to being as a still scarce in thematic research. In the search for a better understanding and reflection on the component, this study aims to comprehend, reflective and critical way, how the PCC is set in the Biology Graduation (CB) of the State University Of Goiás (UEG) and the Federal University Of Goiás (UFG), just as well as the sense given to them in the interior of these courses. By such objectives, it was realized the need of a qualitative approach, so the elements of research could be comprehended in its complexity. It was chosen by the documental research, the Pedagogical Project of the courses was the source of data. The collected data were analyzed through content analysis in which appeared analysis categories, such as: 1) Theory-practice relation; 2) Legal fundaments; 3) Interdisciplinary and the PCC approach in the courses; 4) Didactics transposition and 5) The role of PCC: wanted claims. From the analysis taken from the categories, is possible to conclude that the relation between theory and practice appears in the PCC, however, the proximity with the making and knowing are in its majority, absent; the courses fill the workload of 400 hours of PCC demanded by the Resolution CNE/CP 2/2002, as the PCC is distributed throughout the courses in almost its totality in the interior of the disciplines; the component approach is linked to a conception of interdisciplinary; as understood as well as a learning space regarding the transformation of scientific knowledge in school. In what concerns the senses of practice found in the interior of the PCC, it has been analyzed: space and contact with the real, graduation of a reflexive teacher, graduation of a critic professional, specificity and valorization of a professional knowledge and the relation between theory and practice baptized by the interdisciplinary and the didactics transposition.
