RESUMO

This work discusses the contributions of the Seara of Science for teacher training for undergraduates in physics at the Federal University of Ceara - UFC. The Seara (as it is known) is the body of scientific and technological UFC and has been adding such as monitors, undergraduates Course in Physics and other graduations. Although not designed to train teachers, Seara looks set beyond an area of science communication, helping to train teachers of undergraduates, including those of physics, the assumption from which arose the question of this dissertation research: the extent to which Seara of Science undergraduates to nurture the learning of physics teaching profession? In order to answer this question, we surveyed the executive director of Seara and five former monitors that are currently physics teachers of Basic Education, this research has two objectives: to investigate the extent to which Seara Science contributed to teacher training and for the pedagogical practice of the former monitors of Physics. For that sought: identify situations and practices experienced by subjects in Seara, and also contributed to the construction of knowledge of teaching; found that the former monitors relationships established between the living and Seara in their initial training to act as teachers of physics at Basic Education; identify the difficulties they face in teaching physics, teaching practices and methodologies that have employed to overcome them, from their learning in this space. This thesis also aims at developing a product, namely: a manual of practical physics. The research is characterized as a case study, a qualitative approach. We used a semi-structured interview as a technique for data collection. Their categories of analysis were: Teaching of Physics, Seara of Science, Teacher Education and the Knowledge and teaching practices for the teaching of physics in Basic Education. Teaching of Physics, Seara of Science, Teacher Education and the Knowledge and teaching practices for the teaching of physics in Basic Education. The processing of information used was content analysis. Has a theoretical referential: Nardi,Krasilchik, NÃvoa, Pimenta and Tardif. The survey revealed that contributed to the Seara of Science teacher education subjects and their teaching to enable them: approach to their professional field through interaction with students of Basic Education in concrete situations of teaching and learning, acquire ease to work with students, addressing the physics in a playful manner and deal with unexpected situations, to know the reality of teaching Physics in schools and the students conceptions and difficulties about the contents of this area. Among the lessons learned in Seara, the subjects showed that the preparation and development of experiments with low cost materials was the most meaningful to their practice, since it has allowed them to address the contents of physics in a practical and contextualized, which makes their classes more dynamic and interactive. The study concluded that Seara has been established as an important area of teaching and learning was a gap in the training of undergraduate students of Physics, Federal University of Ceara.
