THEORETICAL SURVEY OF RESEARCH ON TEACHERS IN THE PERIOD OF PROFESSIONAL INSERTION

Abstract

This article aims to understand the studies that circulate in the academic world and deal with the training
and monitoring of teachers in a period of professional insertion, systematizing researches in this specific
area, in Brazilian universities, to map the existence of policies and proposals for monitoring these
professionals. Therefore, a theoretical survey was carried out based on the consultation of theses in the
CAPES Theses and Dissertations Catalog, defended between 2013 and 2017, using the search term
“beginner teacher”. The survey, carried out in July 2018, resulted in the listing of 699 theses. Afterward,
we started the process of reading the theses abstracts, trying to identify those that dealt with the training
of teachers in a period of professional insertion, considering they have dealt with teachers at the beginning of their career, in Kindergarten and the early years of Elementary School; graduates from the Pedagogy
course; and that disseminate training proposals prepared for those teachers. We arrived at four works
which have dealt with the subject and stated that the proposals for monitoring teachers in the process of
entering the career are fundamental for strengthening their confidence in the actions they develop,
minimizing the impacts of the difficulties present in this period, and offering conditions and support so
they don't give up on the profession. The verification of the small number of researches that deal with
the monitoring of teachers in a period of insertion in the career reiterates the importance of proposals
for training and monitoring these teachers.
