RESUMO

This work reports a research about continuous formation program for high school Physics teachers developed with a group of about ten teachers who make part of the FAPESP Special Program, in the category Public Teaching. Between 2004 and 2006 it was called Electromagnetism in High School: Obstacles and Teaching Strategies and then, from 2007 to 2008, was called Online Pedagogic Set for Physics Teaching. It is a research that aims to understand the role of collective work on the continuous formation of teachers. The work was build up from data collected in three fronts: researchers weekly observations, transcriptions of recorded audio during the meetings and statements made by the teachers. This material was selected and analyzed looking for two basic aspects: teachers practice and implications on collective work, when specific categories for each type of document were built. At the end we made a connection with the information obtained in each of them to support our conclusions. Emerged from the study favourable and unfavourable aspects due to collective works. Among them we can point out the necessity of dealing with continuous formation as permanent formation, settling long term programs based on collective work in which discussion and thoughts are privileged, once the necessary knowledge to settle more progressist practices can be build and shared as time goes by. We should also point out the value of presence and frequency to continuous formation, since the regularitiy of the meetings, of the discussions and of the thoughts allows, among other things, the exercise of tolerance and negotiation that can become important qualities to the practice of a compromised and enlightened education.
