Programa de formação continuada dos professores do estado do Rio de Janeiro: o papel do docente

Abstract

This qualitative research proposes to investigate the design and implementation of the Continued Teacher Formation of the State of Rio de Janeiro offered to Portuguese Language and Mathematics teachers on a semi present basis, by Cecierj from 2011 on. Such program is one of the strategies utilized by SEEDUC/RJ to improve the quality of education and to reach one of the five highest positions at the state ranking of IDEB by 2014. The research was constituted of semi structured interviews with those who created the program and of a survey applied to 50 teachers who took the course at Regional Serrana I. From the theoretical support of authors such as NOVOA, IMBERNON, TARDIF, FULLAN and HARGREAVES we were able to trace an plan of intervention to optimize the policy of formation. In order to achieve it, we propose not only a strengthening of the school pedagogical team, but also the addition of a new actor into the program, the Regional Pedagogical Coordination.
