Abstract

DEROSSI, Ingrid Nunes  and  FERREIRA, Denise Cristina. Analyzing the relationship between the objectives of the stricto sensu graduate programs in Science teaching and teacher training for Higher Education. Ciência educ. [online]. 2023, vol.29, e23002.  Epub Jan 30, 2023. ISSN 1980-850X.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1516-731320230002.

This article provides an analysis of the concord between the courses offered in the stricto sensu academic programs in the area of Science Teaching – or those that have research strands in this area – which deal with teaching in higher education in their curricula and the objectives in the programs, in the period between June and August 2021. To do that, a search was conducted of the programs offered by public higher education institutions, followed by reading their objectives and curricula, among those that offered courses focusing on teaching in higher education. The results indicate that some programs aim to train teachers do not have courses on teaching in higher education. It can be concluded that the historical path of consolidation of stricto sensu graduate studies, the specific legislation, and the scarce evaluation process of the quality of teaching encourage the prioritization of research to the detriment of teaching.

Keywords : Higher education; Science teaching; Stricto sensu graduate programs; Evaluation of higher education.
