The main focus of this research is the discussion on the training process of the dual degree students in science, mathematics-physics, chemistry-biology. These courses, which keep many specificities, are part of an innovative and recent experience of some universities in the North Region of the country. The goal was to analyze the extent to which future graduates in science are being prepared to meet the needs of teachers in primary school. The methodology involved interviews with four teacher educators, questionnaires with a hundred and fifty students of these courses, and analysis of pedagogical projects of a university in the Northern Region. In addition, five teachers were interviewed and the principal of a primary school (5th to 8th year) school, in the city where the university is located, because it was believed necessary to hear from the schools themselves what knowledge, skills and competencies were considered mandatory for their future teachers. The theoretical references of this research focused on the contributions of Tardif (2007), Shulman, Garcia (1999, 2009) and Roldão (2005, 2007). The findings of this study provide the knowledge, skills and competencies that emerged from the discourse of our subjects, disciplinary or curriculum knowledge, content teaching knowledge, experience knowledge, general knowledge and other scientific fields, knowledge of context and educational purposes, pedagogical and professional knowledge. Identifying the different teaching professional knowledge is an important resource for new proposals from the initial training courses, since it provides guides on what we think is necessary for the future teacher to develop this first stage of training |
