A noção de competência como instrumento desarticulador da formação política e científica dos professores

Abstract

The aim of this paper is analysing the National Curricular Guidelines for Initial Education of Teachers for Fundamental Education instituted by Report CNE/CP nº 2, of December 20 2019. By means of a historical-epistemological problematization, it is seek to interpret critically the main categories identified with the neoliberal discourse and with the conservative policies whose alignment brings conflictive implications for the Pedagogy course and for teacher education. As a starting point, were selected references that emphaticise the advance of economicist rationality in education in the international scenario at the turn from 20th century to 21th century. Among them, we highlight Khôi (1970), Apple (2003), Laval (2019), and Ball (2010). The results evince that education industry characterized by the application of economicist methods and terminology in education aims at a school centred in the ideology of profession in order to operate the management machinery. We also verified that the demand for didactic-methodological approach aligned to the Curricular Common National Basis (BNCC) represents a form of pedagogical control. Besides, the strategical use of the notion of teacher's professional competence has been promoting the disarticulation of intellectual, cultural, political, scientific and pedagogical education referred in education science.
