Experiências de ensinar/aprender artes visuais: o estágio curricular como campo de investigação na formação inicial docente

Abstract

This thesis aims, based on the identification and analysis of educational experiences of students/trainees of the undergraduate courses in visual arts, to find out how they have contributed to the initial teaching training when teaching/learning Visual Arts at the basic education level, and formulates proposals for actions that may contribute in the field of supervised internship at the degree level in visual arts. It establishes dialogues with the authors who discuss the themes on initial teacher education and teaching/learning arts. The methodology is descriptive qualitative and used, for the case study, questionnaires made available on the Internet, reports of internships, official documents of the Ministry of Education and documents of the undergraduate course in visual arts from Federal University of Pará (UFPA). Responses of students/trainees who joined the university from 2011 to 2015 were selected, as well as from students/trainees under supervised internship at the degree level in Visual Arts during data collection, from 2016 to 2017, and 14 teachers of Visual Arts at basic education level (internship fields). The analysis of the data collected from groups that joined UFPA in 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, through the supervised internship reports of the undergraduate course in visual arts, demonstrates that there have been progresses in the educational practices of students/trainees, as well as the internship did contribute to the initial teacher training. From the analysis of supervised internship reports and answers to the online questionnaire, it was found that educational practices indicate significant teaching/learning experiences, especially when there are exchanges between students/ trainees and school teachers (internship field). Based on the reflections of this thesis, it is considered that teacher training in visual arts needs specific actions for the redirection of teaching/learning at all levels of basic education and that the supervised internship is one of the fields of research to reflect/propose critical educational actions according to the policies established by the Ministry of Education and consequent curricular changes. Reviewing the ways of teaching/learning in the context of teacher training based on perceptions/conceptions of students/trainees and teachers of basic education may contribute to the formative process of those involved in improving teaching of art in all curricular contexts and levels of education.
