RESUMO

This research is aimed at understanding how the requirements that constitute the teaching assignments indicate intensifying practices within work practices at elementary public schools in the Distrito Federal. The methodological approach embraces a qualitative perspective, considering the history, relationships and perceptions of teachers with more than ten years of public service. The study is divided into three chapters: the first one deals with the understanding of teaching as differentiated, particularized, focusing on the transformation of knowledge and reality to fulfill immaterial human needs. It includes an analysis of changes in production caused by changes in the economic, political and technological culture. The second chapter is an inside look into the education system in the Distrito Federal through its history as well as local and national legislation. The third section focuses on the intensification of teaching in public schools. The study suggests that such intensification derives from institutional demands, among which are social change, culture and family, participation in school management, new pedagogic arrangements that arose in public teaching, developments in inclusion policies contemplating pupils with special educational needs, insufficient time for tasks, bureaucratic requirements and demands from the Secretary of Education; differentiated and individualized attention to students in their specific processes. Additionally, individual cases of intensification are highlighted: continuing education arising from new demands of the profession; care towards students‟ safety, level of affection towards students, planning activities prescribed by the Department of Education; differences in conceptions of student assessment, search for groundbreaking knowledge on learning, new methodologies and new skills that enable teaching with new technologies.
