Abstract

This text presents a research that is part of the Course Conclusion Work whose theme is the Continuing Education of Teachers in schools of the Public Network in the Campanha Region of the State of Rio Grande do Sul, RS. The research question is: How is the continuing education of teachers being offered in the campaign region in the last 5 years? The objective of this work was to carry out a systematic study of how the continuing education journeys are being offered. The study was carried out aiming to know the aspects related to this training during the period of the last five years, highlighting whether there is specific training for each area and especially in Natural Sciences and, if in addition to the training offered, other training is carried out. The investigation took place through the interpretation of the questionnaire composed of multiple-choice questions and descriptive questions. This questionnaire was analyzed qualitatively from a priori categories, namely: (i) Training carried out by teachers; and, (ii) Topics dealt with in continuing education. By collecting the data, it was possible to have some relevant information from these teachers and highlight aspects of the continuing education that they have been developing, with most taking an update course, offered in person or remotely, there is little specific training for each area of knowledge, being this is a challenge for the Education Departments, as the teachers claim that the training is not in accordance with their expectations.
