Abstract

VASCONCELOS, Simão Dias  and  LIMA, Kênio Erithon Cavalcante. O professor de biologia em formação: reflexão com base no perfil socioeconômico e perspectivas de licenciandos de uma universidade pública. Ciência educ. [online]. 2010, vol.16, n.02, pp.323-340. ISSN 1516-7313.

This research aimed to investigate future Biology teachers’ socio-economical profile, their motivations for choosing the program and perspectives regarding their professional future. We noticed that most of the future teachers work, come from public High School, have low reading custom, and intend to follow a Biology researcher career. Most of them declare to have chosen the program based on vocation, although reveal very low interest in Biology Education research as professional carrier. The majority of them is satisfied with the undergraduate program they are taking and believe that their training in the university will help significantly for their employment.

Keywords : Future Biology Teachers Training; Biology Teachers' Socio-Economical Profile; Biology Teaching Research.
