DISCUSSIONS AND TRENDS OF THESES AND DISSERTATIONS ON TRAINING SCIENCE TEACHERS IN NON-FORMAL SPACES: A SYSTEMATIC BIBLIOGRAPHIC REVIEW

ABSTRACT:

This study sought to investigate how Brazilian Postgraduate Programs have structured their research, theses and dissertations, on the training of science teachers in non-formal spaces (NFS), in addition to the main discussions on this theme. Methodologically, a systematic review of theses and dissertations found in the database of the Digital Library (BDTD) was carried out, using the Discursive Textual Analysis for corpus analysis. It was found that the selected studies investigate the action/training in NFS of undergraduate students, as well as the nature and/or reflexes of continuing education courses. It was found that many training courses implemented in NFS are short, discontinuous, more informative/instructive than reflective and exclude teachers from planning. In this context, it is believed that the training of teachers in NFE will be consolidated only with the strengthening of the alliance between University, School and NFS.
