Description
Summary:In this study, we used the reports of classroom observation as a research tool, serving as a tool for research on initial teacher training in chemistry. The study analyzed 12 reports prepared by students of Degree in Chemistry and to discuss through the narratives of students, topics related to school structure and teaching of chemistry. The narratives have proved important implements to be analyzed to examine the initial formation. This work confirmed and underscored the relevance of the observation stage in the formation of teaching as a moment of research and reflection of teaching practice.
