Abstract

The present work aimed to analyze how the teaching knowledge integrated into the pedagogical practice of the MiddleLevel Technical Professional Education (EPTNM) teachers contribute to the student’s integral human formation from the vocational agropecuary course, integrated to the high school level, at the Instituto Federal do Amazonas (IFAM). The problem that guided this research presents the following question: How is the teaching knowledge of professionals working in the classroom contributing to the integral human development of students in the agropecuary course, integrated to the high school at the IFAM Campus Manaus Zona Leste? To answer this question, the following guiding questions were established: Do the professionals who work at the EPTNM know the educational objectives that guide vocational education integrated to the high school level? Is continuous education a common practice among teachers at the EPTNM? Do institutional policies enable teachers to develop innovative pedagogical practices? Based on the research problem and the guiding questions, we have the following objectives: Identify the teaching knowledge used in the classroom; List the main difficulties found in the classroom for the integral human formation of students; Describe the possible (pedagogical) actions to be developed to improve the teacher’s teaching practice of IFAM’s integrated courses; Develop a product that contribute to the continuing education of teachers who work with EPTNM, having as a principle the integral human formation. In this research participated 20 teachers belonging to the permanent staff of the IFAM Campus Manaus Zona Leste who act in 1st year of Agropecuary vocational course. The research was qualitative, based on the actionresearch approach, having the observation and questionnaire as data collection instruments. The data collection duration was 01 month. The theoretical contribution that supported the study is based on the ideas and conceptions of Tardif (2014) and other authors who study about teaching knowledge, among others. The educational product created from this research was a portfolio, based on the teachers’ speeches whose focus is to contribute to foster continuing education for teachers in EPTNM on integral human formation. Taking into account the critical situation that Brazil and, in particular, the Amazonas State concerning COVID19 pandemic, we had to redimension the research, given the impossibility of applying it in loco, using technological tools to mediations, that permitted to carry out the research.
