FRANCO, Maria Amélia Santoro. Pedagogical practices of teaching-learning: amid resistances and resignations. Educ. Pesqui. [online]. 2015, vol.41, n.3, pp.601-614. ISSN 1678-4634.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S1517-9702201507140384.

This article presupposes that pedagogical practices are configured in the mediation with the other, or with others, and that the other offers practices his or her space of possibility. Paradoxically, practices can work as a space of resistance and reverberation of multiple dominations; therefore, as a space riddled with contradictions. The empirical data that allowed the construction of these assumptions result from pedagogical action research (FRANCO, 2012) conducted with primary education teachers. Performed by critical hermeneutics, data analysis allows the discussion of three objectives: a) to analyze the scope and possibilities of pedagogical practice as a space of contradiction and resistance; b) to understand the importance of pedagogy as science that can clarify and indicate reflections for the resistances that inexorably impose themselves on practice; and c) to identify the possibilities of pedagogical action research as an instrument of mediation of the contradictions and as a formative device in the negotiation of meanings that emerge from praxes. It concludes that, in the primordial tension inherent in the process of teaching-learning, resistances and resignations, as well as learning and possibilities coexist. Pedagogical practices operate from the fertile, critical and reflective dialogue established between multiple subjects, and between intentionalities and actions. The removal of this sphere of critical reflection and dialogue between intentionalities and actions leads to the impoverishment of the sense of educational practice. This article reaffirms that the founding principles of pedagogical action research can assist in resignifying school practices.
