Abstract

SOPELSA, Ortenila; TREVISOL, Marcio Giusti  and  MELLO, Regina Oneda. Transdisciplinarity as the foundation to develop elementary school teachers' knowledge for quality education . Educ. Puc. [online]. 2015, vol.20, n.2, pp.95-106. ISSN 1519-3993.  https://doi.org/10.1590/edpuc20n201503.

The main objective of this exploratory research was to reflect on transdisciplinarity as a favorable attitude to develop elementary school teachers' knowledge. The main authors that supported this study were Edgar Morin, Hilton Japiassu, Akiko Santos, Pierre Weil and Basarab Nicolescu. The theoretical framework provided the understanding of the need to implement the transdisciplinary concept in the teaching and learning processes. In order to achieve the objectives of the research, 150 students from the Courses of Pedagogy and Physical Education read, discussed and reflected on Edgar Morin texts. According to the students, the studies and reflections on Edgar Morin concepts concerning transdisciplinarity opened space for dialogue and knowledge appropriation for the development of their pedagogical practices in daily school life.
