VIDAL, Diana Gonçalves and RABELO, Rafaela Silva. The creation of the Institutes of Education in Brazil as part of a connected history of teacher education. Cad. Hist. Educ. [online]. 2019, vol.18, n.1, pp.208-220. Epub May 06, 2019. ISSN 1982-7806. https://doi.org/10.14393/che-v18n1-2019-12.
This article discusses the New Education Fellowship (NEF) and the Teachers College (TC) at Columbia University as centers for the legitimization of education as an emerging academic field and as education network centers. To this end, we investigate the establishment of the Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo Institutes of Education in the 1930s in the context of the New Education movement. We seek to demonstrate connections and examine the circulation of people and ideas in what we consider a connected history of teacher education. We have based our research on an associated bibliography and other sources, such as pedagogical journals, curricula and reports. Our study reveals a web of relationships that connected people and places in the 1920s and 1930s. Central to these relationships were institutions such as the NEF and the TC, which established social and epistemological territories surrounding the production of pedagogical repertoires related to New Education.
