FERRADA, Donatila; VILLENA, Alicia and PINO, Miguel Del. Should teachers be trained in educational policies?. Cad. Pesqui. [online]. 2018, vol.48, n.167, pp.254-279. ISSN 1980-5314. https://doi.org/10.1590/198053144740.
This study reports on initial teacher education in educational policy through the construction of five case studies in the Biobío region, Chile. Three of them with actors involved in training in universities, another with public school teachers, and the last one is a document of the state policy that regulates teacher education processes in Chile. Results show that while universities prioritize knowledge and adjustment to the regulatory framework of national policy, in-service teachers demand to qualify in constructive criticism of state policies and competencies to construct policies together with the State based on their own work experience.
