Formação continuada de professores: a institucionalização de espaços formativos no instituto federal do Espírito Santo - campus Nova Venécia

Abstract

The work presented here involves a research that was born from a personal restlessness that, as it developed, was molded to follow paths that connected it to the continuing education of teachers. Talking about continuing education is a delicate subject, perhaps because of its essentiality in the teaching career and the few spaces that encourage such training to happen in the performance environment so that it is elaborated in a collaborative way by the public that one wants to involve, thus, the research project started from the following problem: "In what way Ifes - Nova Venécia campus can guarantee the continuing education to its teachers?", with the general objective of "proposing an institutional space responsible for the continuing education of teachers in the Nova Venécia campus". The locus of the research was the Instituto Federal do Espírito Santo - Nova Venécia campus, an environment where I am also a teacher, based on a research with the use of mixed methods (quali-quantitative), using semi-structured interviews with 13 participants. To treat the data I used Bardin's content analysis, which allowed me to show in tables the quantitative results of the subcategories that the interviewees pointed out in each of the identified categories. As in the research it was possible to identify that there is still no continuing education policy instituted in the institute, but that the interviewees consider continuing education of great importance for the teaching career and that in the institute, an institutionalized space that covers this subject, is offered. I elaborated in a collaborative way with the ideas that brought the intervention project the "Plan for Implementation of the Center for Continuing Education of Ifes Nova Venécia Campus Teachers (NUFOCP - Ifes NV)," which with its implementation may ensure teachers who choose to participate in the actions to ensure the frequent participation in the continuing education within the work environment itself.
