Formação ética de estudantes em via dupla: compromisso educativo consigo e com o outro no curso de pedagogia

Abstract

The ethical issue in contemporary educational training is the subject of this article. Faced with the problem of how they understand initial training guided by an ethical perspective, we aim to know the ethical representations of students completing a Pedagogy Course at a public university in the state of Bahia. The theoretical contributions that supported the theme of ethical training were: (Puig, 1998; Freire, 1996; Goergen 2005, 2011, Rios, 2010; Severino 2011), among others. Qualitative research was based on the approach of social representations, using the interview as a research tool and content analysis as a data interpretation technique. The results showed that the student's commitment to the learning process itself is fundamental for the development of their ethical posture. In the educational framework, the ethos, both in initial teacher training and in the effective exercise of teaching, is strengthened to the extent that teachers and students recognize it as a primate element for the construction of knowledge in the perspective of the integral formation of subjects. The ethical experience in training oneself, training others, enriches the educational process, making it more human, engaged and reflective. Therefore, we expect the ethical redefinition of educational spaces from basic education to university.
