CORREA, Rosa Lydia Teixeira  and  GUIRAUD, Luciene. Possibilidades e limites de histórias de vida por meio de depoimentos orais na história da formação de professores. Rev. Diálogo Educ. [online]. 2009, vol.09, n.28, pp.671-686. ISSN 1981-416X.

Life History as a methodology approach has been seeing as a possibility of an autobiografical construction but also shows some important limits in which the researcher cannot ignore when taking it as an investigation procedure(BORDIEU, 2006), (LEVI, 2006). Bordieu hardly criticizes this approach and this is why he points out some limits about it. This paper deals about a reflection on that criticism and points to possibilities of researches on history of teachers development through oral interviews as well as taking some previous researches on this kind of procedures. This paper also points out for the using of history of life as a historical method construction and emphasizes oral testimonies on history of teachers’ development. It also brings some researches which had good results with this approach. Among them: (ALBUQUERQUE, 2008; CORDEIRO, 2006; KLODZINSKI, 2008; PEROBELLI, 2008). This study is linked to a research project about the history of teacher’s development centering data through teachers’ oral testimonies to corroborate legislation or development projects and curriculum, including and also giving importance to individuals on history process. Looking at this point through teachers’ development history, individuals have such importance as well as other sources of investigation. This paper searches at this point of view the importance and participation of these individuals as well as how they had acquired knowledge during their professional development and how it is linked to educational ideas in vogue through time and history.

Keywords : Teachers’ Development; Oral Interviews; History of Education.
