GIULIATO, Mauro Volney and FELDKERCHER, Nadiane. Abandonment of teaching by beginner university teachers. R. Educ. Públ. [online]. 2021, vol.30, e12470. Epub Dec 12, 2021. ISSN 2238-2097. https://doi.org/10.29286/rep.v30ijan/dez.12470.
In the work we aim to understand the reasons for the abandonment of teaching by teachers beginning in higher education. The research, qualitative and empirical, used interviews for data collection with five former teachers with up to five years of experience in higher education, who left the profession due to professional and personal adversities. Teacher abandonment is the end of a long process of struggles that involves multiple complications, related to the personal, professional and institutional level. We emphasize the importance of monitoring career entry and training actions that contribute to the construction of teaching identities and favorable work environments.
