SARMENTO, Teresa. Contributions to professional construction in a collaborative network. Sér.-Estud. [online]. 2023, vol.28, n.63, pp.5-24.  Epub Aug 21, 2023. ISSN 2318-1982.  https://doi.org/10.20435/serieestudos.v28i63.1805.

Internship is a central axis in teacher training, forcing the mobilization and articulation of different types of knowledge, both personal and professional. Becoming a teacher is, thus, an individual and collective process that requires the internal symbiosis of action, experience, and emotion, to constitute itself as a total action of a person in the performance of a specific profession. This text is based on an approach to the basic principles of teacher training, and then we proceed to make a report on teacher training courses in Portugal, in the so-called post-Bologna period, with a specific focus on internship. Given the relative autonomy of the construction and development of the courses in higher education, which we will address, we will use the master’s course in Pre-School Education and Teaching of the 1st Cycle, that takes place at the Institute of Education - University of Minho, as a case from which the internship will be explained. This is realized with the support of a collaborative network, constituted by the intern, by the cooperating teacher, and by the supervising teacher, in a process of action and reflection, in which pedagogical research has a very relevant meaning.

Keywords : teacher training; internship; pedagogical research.
