The training of higher education lecturers is one of the functions of a Masters Degree Course. When researching into the training conditions of lecturers taking a Masters Degree Course in Education, it is possible to identify some basic disciplines, specifically in the area of Teaching such as: 'Learning and Teaching in Higher Education.' adopted in IESAE/cMEd, 'Teaching MethodA in HigheJL Educa.tionh adopted in UFRJ/CMEd and 'The.. Study 06 Te..a.chin.g Me..thod6' adopted in PUC/CMEd. It was observed that these disciplines are not compulsory for alI the students. These disciplines are therefore thought to be insuficiently defined in the curricular structure of the Masters Courses, bearing in mind the Education of lecturers. As sumi ng a s imi 1 ari ty of func t ions of thes e three disciplines in a Masters Courae it is possible te believe that the lack of role definition of the same disciplines ln the curriculum is eaused by an imprecision in the te~ minoiogy eoncerning Learning, Teaching, Teaching Methods, The Study of Methods etc. This lack of precisicn is found in the review of literature~ ~s well as in the answers to the questio~ aires given by students and lecture~a. As a result of careful consideraticn a.n.d Te..aching in Highe..JL Educa.tion.' was chosen as the mani formativê discipline whcn considering the training of lecturers. This is due to the comprehensive character of the discipline. For this saroe reason it is suggested that it should be compulsory to alI the Masters studénts tn Education. 'Lea4ning and Teachinn in Highe4 Education' is ~ mainly an interdisciplinary discipline entailing a reflex ive and criticaI method of approach which allows the lecturer of Higher Education to adequately develop the teach ing and learning processo This work has two parts~ a theoretical approach and a field research. The first part presents the review of literature, the definition of the function of 'Teaching and LeaJtni..ng i..n Hi..ghe4 Education' in the training of lecturers ~ and the analytical study of the syllabuses of the three disci plines discussed above. The population was the total number of students taking the three disciplines, the respective lecturers and the Course Coordinators of the three ins-.::tHutions(il--976). The assumptions and questions which form background of thinking in this work are rclated to the both the lack of conceptual precision and indefinition of role of the discipline of 'Leanning and Teaching in HlgheJt Edu catlon' in the context of the training of lecturers .... for Higher Education.
