INTERNSHIP IN EDUCATION AND SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY: THEORY AND PRACTICE IN A SCHOOL-SERVICE

ABSTRACT This article aims to present data from a research work that intended to investigate which theoretical conceptions and which activities were developed in the supervised curricular internship of psychology, in the school and educational area, in a school service of the State University of Paraná. We present reflections about the relationship among psychology, the school and the emergence of psychology school services in Brazil; we outline some considerations about the formation of man; and the relationship with education, by means of historical-cultural psychology and historical-critical pedagogy, both based on Marxism. Next, we expose data obtained from the analysis of 106 internship reports. As a result, we observed that the theory and practice represented in the internship reports presented, simultaneously, a traditional and critical perspective of psychology in the school field.
