CONTINUING TRAINING OF RURAL TEACHERS: A REFLECTION ON THE CONTRADICTIONS OF THE NATIONAL COMMON CURRICULAR BASE (BNCC)

Abstract

The continuing education of rural teachers is considered essential for the construction of the identity of being a teacher and for the construction of an education proposal aimed at peasant development. This formative space, which takes place both in service, in the school space, and outside it, in universities, institutes and social movements, is considered as a territory of dispute and power. In an effort to understand, we discussed continuing education and its relationship between theory and practice in the resolutions and prescriptions of the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) in the light of the category of analysis “contradiction”, of the dialectical materialism method. Finally, regarding the centrality in the epistemology of practice marked by rural education, we point to praxis with the appreciation of the knowledge built by humanity and the unity of theory and practice. For this, we used a literature review, document analysis and data collected through questionnaires with education secretaries and field teachers in the municipalities surveyed. The results point to formations focused on the epistemology of pedagogical practice, conditioned to problems that arise in the daily life of the classroom, Exchange of knowledge, reposts of successful experiences and sharing of anxieties; training focused on essential knowledge: Portuguese and mathematics (Reading, writing and calculation) with preparation for external assessments and) lack of specific continuing training for Rural Education. Finally, regarding the centrality in the epistemology of practice marked by rural education, we point to práxis with the knowlwdgw built by humanity and the unity of theory and practice.
