Uma análise do desenvolvimento histórico do curso de Licenciatura em Matemática do Campus I da Universidade Federal da Paraíba

Abstract

In this work, we aim to analyze the curricular grid of the Mathematics Degree course of the Federal University of Paraíba, Campus I, with particular interest in pedagogical training and to propose possible strategies and adjustments in its curricular structure in order to improve the quality of the course. To achieve this purpose we carried out a qualitative research of a documental nature. We presented the different structures that have existed in the course during its history, from 1974 until 2006. We highlighted some data, such as, for example, the percentage of pedagogical training courses in each of the structures and we were able to conclude that, throughout time, their quantity did not increase. Moreover, based on documents and articles about the teacher education policy at a national level and, according to the conceptions that have generated tendencies in this area, we suggest some proposals for alterations in the Pedagogical Political Project of the Degree Course in Mathematics of the UFPB.
