Abstract

DIEB, Messias. Knowledge about researching under the freshmen Education Graduate students' point of view. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2016, n.59, pp.231-249. ISSN 1984-0411.  https://doi.org/10.1590/0104-4060.44078.

In this paper, I reflect on the relationships of freshman graduate students with the research activity in the education field based on Charlot's propositions (2000) about relationships of the individuals with the world, the others and themselves to self-building and the construction of their own knowledge. A written balance of knowledge developed by 30 Education students attending Masters Degree from the Federal University of Ceará and from the State University of Ceará, in Brazil, composed the data in which they define researching, and they explain what it means to them. In their point of view research is a formative action that intends to solve the social reality problems, and to find answers to the questions that disturb the teachers' practice. In the end, I expose some challenges faced by the students, who consider research an important constituent of their professional development.
