Abstract
CYRINO, Marina and NETO, Samuel de Souza. The pre-service teacher in the undergraduate course of education: elements for the formation process. Acta Scientiarum. Education [online]. 2015, vol.37, n.4, pp.401-413. ISSN 2178-5201. https://doi.org/10.4025/actascieduc.v37i4.25521.
Current paper analyzes the training curriculum of the pre-service teacher in the Undergraduate Course of Education. The aim was to perceive the factors that make the training curriculum a formative activity for teacher trainees. The qualitative research comprised data collection, observation, semi-structured interviews with 22 participants and documental sources. Results showed that the training curriculum may be formative if four points are considered: the Pre-Service Teacher participants' conceptions; school commitment to teacher´s education; conditions and commitment of schools and teachers in teacher trainees; relationships established in the Pre-Service Teacher process. These elements put practice as central process, coupled to the school´s formal commitment to teacher's formation.
