SILVA, Roger Magalhães da  e  GEHLEN, Simoni Tormöhlen. THEMATIC RESEARCH IN SCIENCE TEACHERS' TRAINING IN PAU BRAZIL/BA: UNDERSTANDINGS ABOUT A THEME GENERATOR. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2016, vol.18, n.2, pp.147-169. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172016180207.

We developed a science teachers' training process based on the relationship between the dynamics of Thematic Approach Freirean and Organizational Curriculum Praxis via Theme Generator, which analyzed the teachers' understanding about the Theme Generator's nature, function and selection criteria: "The dangers of the river Água Preta in Pau Brazil/BA". The information was obtained through meetings with teachers' audiovisual recording and semi-structured interviews conducted after the training process. They were analyzed via Text Analysis Discourse through a category established a priori, which was structured in emerging subcategories. Among the results, it is emphasized that teachers significantly understood the Theme Generator's problematical and dialogical characteristics, as well as established relationships issues of this nature with local community's specific problems. About this, the teachers pointed out that the process of Thematic Research enables the seizure of social contradictions of the community and distinguishes Theme Generators from other themes.
