PEDAGOGY IN THE PEDAGOGY COURSES?

the absence and impacts on pedagogical work

Abstract

This article systematizes research carried out in the last five years, with the objective of studying the movements of meanings, historicity and the work of pedagogues (and, therefore, pedagogical work) described in the pedagogical projects of Pedagogy courses in Rio Grande do Sul. Based on this initial study, the objective was to understand which concept of Pedagogy and pedagogical work of future pedagogues is the basis for the elaboration of these pedagogical projects and in the speeches of managers of these courses. It was, then, a study, in which the techniques of data production were a) documentary analysis of eighteen pedagogical projects made available on the websites of Pedagogy courses or sent, by e-mail, by Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) , located in the State of Rio Grande do Sul; b) conducting an interview, by applying a questionnaire, sent by e-mail, to eight coordinators of these courses. The analysis of the data produced indicated that they are undergraduate courses in Education and not in Pedagogy, in which there is, initially, from the curricular point of view, emphasis on the fundamentals of education and, only at the end of the course, there is a professional insertion in the field of work. . This research, therefore, in seeking to produce new knowledge on the theoretical and practical field of Pedagogy, made it possible to elaborate bases for a review of the pedagogical proposals of Pedagogy courses, in order to become praxis based on scientificity regarding the study of educational phenomena.
