Contribuições e desafios do estágio supervisionado no processo de formação docente do curso de pedagogia do CCHSA - UFPB

Abstract

This article is based on the following question: What are the contributions and challenges of the supervised internship in the Pedagogy degree course at UFPB campus III? In this sense, the general objective was to identify the contributions and challenges of the supervised internship in the Pedagogy degree course at UFPB campus III. To support this objective, we chose the following specific objectives: to examine the duties of the supervised internship in the Pedagogical Project of the Course and in the internship resolution of the Pedagogy degree course at UFPB campus III; to verify, in the view of the students, how the supervised internship contributes to the formation of their professional teaching identity and to investigate what changes could contribute to improving the student experience during the supervised internship. We used the help of scholars such as António Nóvoa and Selma Garrido Pimenta on supervised internships and teacher training, and the Pedagogy course's PPC and the internship resolution. Our research is of a basic nature, with a qualitative and exploratory approach to the objects of study. In terms of procedures, it is characterized as bibliographical, documentary and a case study. To collect the data, we used a structured questionnaire with students who had already taken the supervised internship course and a semi-structured interview with students who had completed the course during the 2024.2 academic term. The students of the Pedagogy course shared important observations in their statements, including the obstacles they face due to transportation, the financial difficulties in paying for teaching materials, the short deadlines for completing the internships and the lack of motivation they feel in relation to some of the statements made by their supervising teachers. In addition, it is essential to mention the contributions that the internships have brought to the students, since they emphasized the relevance of these experiences in living the daily school life, which helps them to understand how it works, as well as being a decisive factor in choosing their future field of work.
