Abstract

This text presents reflections on the life stories and formative experiences of teachers who work in the Chemistry Degree Course at the State University of Feira de Santana - UEFS. This is an excerpt from the master's research entitled: "Chemistry begins in the stars: life stories and formative experiences of teachers of the degree course in chemistry at the State University of Feira de Santana - UEFS" in the program of the Master's Degree in Education at that institution, which is currently under development, whose objective is to understand how the life stories and formative experiences of the professors of the Bachelor's Degree in Chemistry at the State University from Feira de Santana developed for his teaching practice. As methodological pathways, we opted for a qualitative research approach and were inspired by the (auto)biographical perspective-life stories and chose the narrative interview as research devices. And we base ourselves on the theoretical contribution of Josso (2004), Nóvoa (2014), Macedo (2010), Souza 2006), Larrosa (2002), among others. It is concluded that life stories are specific in a reflective, experiential and formative process by enabling the subject to look at himself in different times and spaces, making it possible to constantly reconstitute himself.
