Abstract
LIMA, Maria Flávia Batista and BARREYRO, Gladys Beatriz. BA Programs in Education at Brazil’s Federal Institutes of Education, Science and Technology: thoughts on a new locus of teacher education. Revista Brasileira de Política e Administração da Educação [online]. 2018, vol.34, n.2, pp.501-521. ISSN 2447-4193. https://doi.org/10.21573/vol34n22018.80445.
The present article discusses the expansion policy of BA programs on education at Brazil’s Federal Institutes of Education, Science and Technology (ISs), and problematizes teacher education in this context, since these federal vocational institutions have traditionally offered secondary-level vocational education. The text derives from a study that analyzed statistic data, legislation, government documents and interviews. Finally, we present a few aspects of the teacher education model at the FI, which shows the prevalence of specific content knowledge in curriculums and less focus on discussing pedagogical themes.
