THE CONSTRUCTION OF THE TEACHING IDENTITY OF A STUDENT FROM A BIOLOGY PRE-SERVICE TEACHING DISTANCE COURSE: A CASE OF HYBRIDISM

Starting from the understanding of the formation of the teaching identity as interlaced with social interactions in different contexts, we have extended such an assumption, coordinating it to the production of cultural identity approach, which emphasizes its constitutive relationship with language. From this path, we composed a theoretical framework incorporating concepts of philosophy of language. We seek to investigate, through interviews, the discursive construction of the teaching identity of a student from the last period of a distance course degree in Biological Sciences. This was carried out by using a Bakhtinian analytical device. We conclude that the discursive construction of teaching identity of the student analyzed is characterized by hybridism, which may be related primarily to his attachment to the professional identity of rural extension educator manifested in various ways throughout the interview.
