This paper presents some outcomes of a broader research on Astronomy Education in primary school teacher's education. From the analysis of the main astronomy subjects thought nationwide and the research outcomes, we identified a set of astronomy contents considered fundamental to the teachers practice. Through a research carried out among a sample of primary school teachers, however, we show that, even in these essential contents, persists alternative conceptions among those teachers. Data collected pointed out, thus, to the necessity of improving teacher's education in this area, taking into consideration astronomy edu cation research outcomes, in favor of a teaching which contemplates, at least, the fundamental contents on this subject.

The teaching of Science is one great challenge not only for educators but also for researchers in our country. In a globalized world where the social foundations, cultural and economic depend fundamentally on science and technology, science education is a basic requirement for the exercise of citizenship. Multiple initiatives have been taken to improve the quality of teaching of science practiced in our schools: the ReAction Program is the result of a set of actions developed by a public educational policy that invests in improving the Teaching of Science the elementary school. In this work, we present a history of this program and the search on the contribution and the actions developed, the collaborative research with a group of teachers-multiplier, and the evaluation of the teaching of science, measured from notes, frequency and speech teacher.

This study aimed at both identifying possibilities of communicative action that occur in the formative trajectory of Science teachers, and therefore collaborate in the discussion on the rationality approach that supports teacher education. Therefore, we hope to contribute for the construction of a formative model that encourages human emancipation. For this purpose, we draw concepts from Communicative Action Theory proposed by Jürgen Habermas. Data were obtained by half-structuralized interviews. Although strategic actions predominate among those used by teachers during their education period, we observed some tension focus could be identified, better recognized and built up in order to enlarge possibilities of increasing communicative actions in teacher education. We identified political and epistemological factors as obstacles for these possibilities to materialize.

O objetivo da presente tese é realizar uma abordagem acerca da realidade das entidades científicas no contexto da formação de professores de física. A literatura em ensino de ciências destaca a importância do entendimento de aspectos da natureza da ciência por professores. Dentre esses aspectos, exploramos a questão da realidade das entidades inobserváveis descritas pelas teorias científicas, tratando sobretudo de critérios utilizados para a caracterização dessa realidade por licenciandos, bem como possíveis influências na constituição desses critérios. Consideramos que um professor de física, durante sua atuação profissional, precisará lidar com a questão da realidade de entidades não acessíveis aos sentidos, tendo talvez de explicar em que se baseia uma proposição sobre sua existência. No desenvolvimento do presente trabalho, trouxemos alguns elementos de uma discussão que se dá no âmbito filosófico a respeito do realismo científico e também abordamos formulações teóricas que tratam da questão da realidade em perspectivas que se referem ao campo cotidiano e ao senso comum. Como referencial mais geral, utilizamos uma abordagem sobre cultura, que aponta para a influência de diversas estruturas culturais nas formas de entendimento do mundo e permite conceber a ciência como uma dessas estruturas. Entre outras coisas, a aprendizagem da ciência envolveria a compreensão de suas formas específicas de atribuir realidade, em contraposição às formas de outras estruturas culturais. Foram desenvolvidos três estudos, com análises fundamentadas em metodologias qualitativas. No primeiro, investigamos critérios usados por licenciandos em física para definir a realidade de entidades da ciência e de entes relacionados a outros domínios; no segundo, analisamos formas pelas quais certas entidades científicas são caracterizadas e tomadas como reais em uma coleção de livros didáticos de física do ensino superior; e, por fim, o terceiro consistiu na construção e utilização de um heurístico, com o objetivo de proporcionar reflexões acerca de questões relacionadas ao conhecimento científico e a elementos de outras estruturas culturais e foram analisadas as entrevistas de quatro estudantes de licenciatura sobre o uso desse instrumento. Os resultados obtidos parecem mostrar que há influência de elementos vindos de fora da ciência nos critérios utilizados por estudantes para a definição da realidade das entidades. Além disso, mostram que esse tema não é comumente trazido à reflexão dos alunos, o que não contribui para a reelaboração dos critérios de realidade já trazidos por eles de outros campos que não o científico. O heurístico utilizado no terceiro estudo serviu para trazer à tona as bases do pensamento dos estudantes e lhes indicar certos elementos para reflexão; existiram diferenças nos tipos de reflexão suscitados pelo instrumento, o que consideramos ser uma espécie de \"contextualização cultural\" na maneira de compreender as questões trazidas por ele. O desenvolvimento dos três estudos nos permitiu compreender alguns aspectos relevantes sobre os modos de entendimento das entidades da ciência e pensar sobre suas formas de tratamento em um curso de física.

Studies and reflections about the current trends on teaching Science show us the importance of include in the teaching practice, activities with a investigative and problematic approach, that allow to the learners to understand and to apply concepts and phenomena scientifics. On this perspective, the teacher continuing education is essential to effect the practice of this approach in the classroom. Therefore, this research has as an objective to contribute with Science teacher continuing formation in the basic education, in the use of the investigative approach, with a view to overcoming obstacles and making change in pedagogical practice using this research elements. For this, a qualitative research with science teachers of basic schools in the city of Natal/ RN/ Brazil was held, who attended the training course on teaching by investigation in 2012, through the project entitled "Em Busca de Novos Talentos para a Ciência: uma intervenção no ensino público" (Searching New Talents for Science: an intervention in public education).The research was conducted in four stages: Diagnosis of the conceptions of education for research and incorporation into practice after the New Talents course; projection of the intervention, intervention and evaluation. To obtain the data it was made a questionnaire, semi-structured interviews, group studies, written records and participant observation. It was analyzed that the course had significant contributions to the participating teachers to promote the approach and the motivation for incorporation of the investigative approach in practice. The permanence of weaknesses related to the theoretical basis was found, the wear resistance, difficulty in planning activities and the change in practice, diagnosed the previous course of this research. It was also noticed certain lack of domain of teaching principles of investigation by the teachers, who despite being well understood in theory, reveal gaps in practice. Despite not having been exploited the full potential of investigative activity is apparent that the inclusion of activities with an investigative approach to science and biology classes is essential for an active, critical and reflective posture of the students as well as the interest in learning about science. It was demonstrated that intervention with moments of reflection, engagement, knowledge exchange, it was effective in overcoming difficulties identified at baseline as well as providing greater motivation to face the innovations and changes in education, suggesting an important format to considered in the course of continuing education. This is because the planning and replanning allow teachers to reflect and evaluate their practice, contributing to overcoming difficulties of teachers on a daily basis.

This essay aims to present and describe a proposal of insertion of Mathematics History into teachers undergraduation. Such addition proposal is expected to take place as curricular component to be taught on initial undergraduation for mathematics teachers. The selection of contents for the proposal has been based on the national Curriculum Guidelines (DCN, 2001, acronym in portugueses) for bachelor’s degree in Mathematics; the National Curricular Guidelines for Elementary School (PCNEF, 1998, acronym in Portuguese); and the National Curricular Guidelines for High School (PCNEM, 1999, acronym in Portuguese). The curricular component now presented is supposed to take a 60 hour workload, and includes the following topics: History of Ancient Numbering Systems, History of Trigonometriy and History of fuctions. For the sake of exemplification, the topic History of Ancient Numbering Systems is discussed and analysed in detail as practice for the new curricular component.

O presente resumo é concernente às discussões que consolidaram a base teórica do Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso de Graduação “Os Clássicos da Ciência Geográfica e a Formação dos Professores de Geografia”, o mesmo está sendo desenvolvido no curso de Geografia da Universidade Estadual Vale do Acaraú – UVA, e tem como objetivo principal analisar como os autores clássicos do período tradicional da Ciência Geográfica são interpretados na disciplina “Introdução ao Pensamento Geográfico” do Curso de Geografia (UVA), e quais são as importâncias e contribuições desses geógrafos para a formação dos professores de Geografia, como para a própria ciência. A pesquisa também averigua as obras sobre História do Pensamento Geográfico no Brasil que abordem esses autores, mas, busca analisar proficuamente as contribuições das matrizes originárias. Sabendo que a geografia sempre foi composta por diversos pensadores, de fato, uma ciência com um campo teórico gigantesco com diversas produções científicas em cada momento histórico, teve que se delimitada a pesquisa em referenciar apenas alguns geógrafos tradicionais, escolhemos os que formularam os princípios geográficos, princípios que molduravam formavam o método geográfico na época da corrente tradicional e assim diferenciava a geografia das demais ciências, auxiliando a inserção da geografia em seu processo de institucionalização.
