A magia do professorar: a aula como um excursionar entre os saberes

Abstract

The theme of this thesis is to understand the pedagogical practice of Mathematics Degree students at Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, their teaching-learning environment, and the beginning of their teaching carrier in Popular Preparation Courses for the entrance examinations in universities (CPVP) along with the development of their graduation course. We aim to interpret their discourse and pedagogical utterances relying on six intents of elocution which are embraced by the teacher’s pedagogical enunciations. Understanding the intentions of the enunciations as interaction strategies to teach and learn so teacher and student explore knowledge and design a space in the classroom, in which I’ve realized, from the Saturno, Sol, and Netuno events, that the student agrees, queries, and inter rogates. From this perspective, the pedagogical enunciation is the addition of enunciative facts stimulated by the turn-taking in which the protagonists take part as speakers and listeners. Interviews with the popular courses coordinators and their teaching staff are the instruments for the data collection, being able to learn about their background and development in their basic education. Class video recording and their audio transcriptions are also instruments for data collection. The theoretical foundations are based upon the works of Benveniste, on the Enunciation Theory, Gadamer and his works on comprehension and language, and Cunha, with her understanding about teachers and their training.
