This study is part of a broader research project that focused on investigating a process in the initial training of Chemistry teachers from the perspective of the Theory of Conceptual Fields (TCF). This paper presents teaching-learning processes as a conceptual field based on the precepts of TCF, which we took as a theoretical and methodological reference. We analyzed the responses of two chemistry undergraduates to a questionnaire related to their conceptions about such processes with a view to addressing the evolution of their understanding thereof, in the light of TCF. The results suggest the possibility of considering teaching-learning processes as a conceptual field and the need to deal with them during teacher training to promote the appropriation of these processes by undergraduates.

Keywords : Teaching and learning processes; Chemistry teaching; Theory of conceptual fields; Pre-service teacher education.
