RESUMO

This research, inserted in a qualitative approach, has the objective of investigating the complex subject beliefs, approaching the universe of the in-service teacher. The theoretical referencial is constituted of studies on beliefs, with special emphasis for the works of Almeida Filho (1999, 2002 and 2005), and Barcelos (1995, 2000 and 2004), and on teacher education, with the support of Vieira-Abrahão (2004) and Celani (2003), amongst others. This study seeks to identify the beliefs of two in-service teachers and to compare them with the ones they presented at the beginning of their professional career. It also aims at investigating which factors have exerted influence on this process of their beliefs transformation and to verify to what extent the pedagogical practice of these teachers acts on this process of change, and vice versa. The research was led through an interpretativist methodology, with the use of questionnaires, personal narratives and interviews, and was carried through in a public school specialized in foreign language teaching. With regard to the beliefs of the teachers, their dynamic aspect throughout the process of becoming a teacher was focused. Teacher education was considered here a space for reflection on their beliefs and possible changes, with emphasis in a process of critical reflexive continued education. The results showed that the beliefs of the teachers have modified since when they had initiated their practice, and that the same aspects that had acted in the formation of their beliefs can influence the changes. Amongst these factors we can detach the influence of other agents, as former-professors, coordinators, colleagues or even their students. Moreover, the existence of a process of continuous formation that takes the professor to think on his practice and the beliefs that take him to act in this way, and that oportunize wider discussions on this reality, can create a movement of searching for a more efficient education.
