Abstract

ANDRE, Marli Eliza Dalmazo Afonso de et al. O trabalho docente do professor formador no contexto atual das reformas e das mudanças no mundo contemporâneo. R. Bras. Est. Pedag. [online]. 2010, vol.91, n.227, pp.122-143. ISSN 2176-6681.

Based on data from a research that focus on the work of teachers’ educators, we discuss the main challenges pointed out by teachers and their strategies to cope with new work demand. Four case studies were carried out in public and private universities from different Brazilian regions, 53 teacher educators were interviewed, and pedagogical projects were analyzed. The results show many changes in the students’ characteristics, what called for a revision of educators’ knowledge and practices. We find that these changes are not being considered in institutional projects, what leaves to teacher educators themselves the task of facing them.

Keywords : Docent Work; Teacher Educators; Institutional Context; Social Changes.
