Contribuições do PIBID para a formação inicial dos licenciandos em Ciências: Matemática e Física do ICET

Abstract

This research aims to analyze the contributions of the Institutional Teaching Initiation Scholarship Program (PIBID) on the training of undergraduate students in the Bachelor's Degree in Sciences: Mathematics and Physics at the Institute of Exact Sciences and Technology (ICET), Federal University of Amazonas (UFAM). The study emerged from the need to investigate how early insertion into the school environment can contribute to the professional and pedagogical development of future teachers. A qualitative approach was adopted as the research methodology, using a structured questionnaire with open-ended questions to assess the students’ perceptions regarding the contributions of PIBID and their individual experiences within the program. The research focused on students who participated in the 2022 and 2024 editions of the program. It aimed to identify the main factors that motivated them to participate in PIBID, as well as to examine how this experience has influenced their pedagogical training and decision to pursue a teaching career. Based on the perspective that PIBID plays a significant role in bridging the gap between theory and practice in teacher education, the study expected the collected data to provide a clear understanding of PIBID’s role in strengthening the professional identity of student teachers. The results are also expected to inform potential improvements in initial teacher training programs, particularly in challenging contexts such as the interior regions of Amazonas.
