Formação continuada em ensino de artes visuais: investigação das iniciativas da Secretaria Municipal de Educação de Governador Valadares em 2010

Abstract

The research focus of this study was to analyze and evaluate the continuous education of teachers of Visual Arts in the city of Governador Valadares in the year 2010. I used as object of analysis a questionnaire distributed among teachers and trainers, as well as agendas, reports, evaluations of teachers and feedback sessions from them. In parallel, the literature of the research base has served to expand my concept of the continous formation in practice. From the intersection of the data provided by teachers with the theoretical research, I observed that the continuous education of teachers of Visual Arts in Governador Valadares is consistent with the recommendations of the Ministry of Education, but faces a number of challenges. Highlight the importance of technical assistance as critical to the process of training and that reflection on the practice constitutes an essential element for the enhancement of educational practice of the teacher.
