Estágio supervisionado em educação infantil: olhar das acadêmicas

Abstract

This research, entitled “Supervised Internship in Early Childhood Education: the students' perspective” aimed to research the Supervised Internship of the Pedagogy Course of the Federal University of the Southern Frontier Erechim campus, and, in a complementary way, to investigate the students' understanding of the Pedagogy course regarding their participation in the Supervised Internship in Early Childhood Education, as well as to analyze what is the reflection that students have on the relationship between theory and practice when experiencing the internship. A qualitative approach was used as the research methodology, and a questionnaire was carried out in Google Forms as a means of data collection, answered by twenty-five students. The research is also shaped as bibliographic research and documentary analysis. The answers were analyzed from some reference authors on the Supervised Internship in Early Childhood Education, such as Pimenta and Lima (2011), Melo (2018), Suanno (2019), Carvalho and Lima (2009), among others that are dedicated to this study. In addition to the authors, the analysis was carried out from the guiding documents of the Pedagogy course, the Pedagogical Course Project (PPC), and the legislation, such as the National Curriculum Guidelines of the Pedagogy and Teacher Training Course (DCNs) and the Internship Law. It was found, from the results, that the internship is understood by the students as the central axis of the course and articulator of the disciplines, occurs through the interaction of the university and school, and should be thought of as a praxis activity, as a research space, which enables the training of future teachers researchers, critical, reflective.
