The Pedagogical Formation of Teacher Engineers of EPTNM

ABSTRACT

This work aims to analyze the pedagogical formation of teachers engineers who work in Technical Vocational Education of High School Level (EPTNM). Interviews had been conducted with eight teacher engineers who work in the EPTNM and who have done any course of pedagogical formation at any campi of the IFMG or the CEFET-MG. The results indicated that the interviewed teachers sought pedagogical formation in university graduate courses (teacher training) and specialization courses (lato sensu postgraduate studies) only after graduating from engineering courses. In conclusion, the pedagogical formation has a transforming potential in the way of performing and thinking of the teachers, and it is quite relevant to the formation of the teacher engineer.
