The Contribution of Internships for the Understanding of the Role of Chemistry Teacher

Abstract: The modern teaching tendencies are essential for the production of significant learning. Given the need for a greater understanding of the meaning making, this study investigated the teaching practice of teachers in training and the moments of participative evaluation, when theoretical knowledge is associated with practical knowledge. We observed that there was high interaction between intern teachers and students, leaving room for student participation, even though the teachers had difficulty in implementing a dialogical discourse. During the participative evaluation, we perceived the evolution of the conceptions of teachers' and students' roles in classroom dynamics.
