BRANDAO, Caio Teixeira; BENEVIDES, Andréa Silva e CAMPOS, Pedro Humberto Faria. SOCIAL REPRESENTATIONS SYSTEMS: contributions to educational research. Revista Teias [online]. 2020, vol.21, n.spe, pp.167-182. Epub 20-Jan-2021. ISSN 1982-0305. https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2020.45106.
This paper presents some contributions of social representation systems (SRS) to research in Education, using two researches based on the Structural Approach, which establishes socials representations as a belief system that guides and justifies the practices of a group. In a research in the field of Professional Education, through the Free Word Association Technique and the Prototypical Analysis, evidence was found of the relationship between technical education and professional training for students of high school courses of a Federal Institute of Education, based on a controversial notion of opportunity. In an action research in Health Education, conducted with employees of a supermarket chain, the use of a focus group made it possible to identify the relationship between health and physical activity and intervene to increase participants' adherence to the practice of physical exercise. The systemic perspective opposes the study of isolated representations and offers an alternative for the study of social representations, favoring a psychosocial regard in intervention and transformation of educational practices.
