Resumo: Este artigo apresenta e analisa as concepções e relações de experimentação, Ciência e ensino pertencentes a professores de Ciências em formação inicial, participantes do Programa de Educação Tutorial (PETCiências). Foi possível verificar que os licenciandos compreendem a importância das atividades experimentais para a aprendizagem, sendo mais frequente a concepção de experimentação contextual-investigativa; já as concepções de Ciência e de ensino ainda estão em nível tradicional, mas apresentam certa tendência à evolução para perspectivas mais transformadoras e contextuais. Percebemos a importância da reflexão sobre a própria prática, por meio da escrita narrativa e apostamos no potencial do PETCiências como coletivo importante no processo de formação inicial, permitindo o diálogo intermitente entre prática e a teoria.Palavras-chave: Investigação-formação-ação; Escrita reflexiva; Ensino de Ciências. Experimentation, Science and Education: conception and relations in initial teaching formation of PetciênciasAbstract: This article presents and analyzes experimentation conceptions and interrelationships, Science and education that belongs to Science teachers in initial formation, who are part of the Tutorial Education Program (PETCiências). It was possible to verify that teachers in formation understand the importance of experimental activities to improve learning, being more frequent the investigative-contextual conception of experimentation, conceptions of science and teaching are still at the traditional level, but they tend to evolve towards more transformative and contextual perspectives. Science and teaching conception are still at the traditional level, but they already present a certain bias to evolution to a more transforming and contextual perspective. We notice the importance of thinking about your own practice, through narrative writing and we bet in PETCiências’ potential as an important collective in the initial formation process, allowing intermittent dialogue between practice and theory.Keywords: Investigation-Formation-Action; Reflective writing; Science Teaching.

Resumo: A formação docente para o Ensino de Ciências é imprescindível também pelos constantes avanços nesta área, que devem ser acompanhados pelos professores em formação e em atividade. Diante disso, o presente estudo objetivou investigar concepções de nove professores sobre aspectos das formações inicial e continuada que influenciam o trabalho em sala de aula. Para tanto, foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa qualitativa por meio de entrevistas com professores de Ciências de cinco escolas públicas na Paraíba. Os resultados indicaram que predomina entre professores uma visão de distanciamento entre formação inicial e continuada, cuja primeira é considerada como suficiente para a atuação em aula, enquanto a segunda é interpretada como uma complementação. Além disso, prevaleceu entre os professores a concepção de que a prática em sala de aula tem relevância equivalente ao curso de licenciatura para a atuação docente. Possivelmente, a prática é interpretada como forma de consolidar o que foi visto na formação inicial e uma justificativa para a ausência de continuidade na formação profissional. Propõe-se neste trabalho, portanto, que a formação docente seja vista como um processo permanente na qual os conhecimentos construídos no percurso das formações inicial e continuada sejam interdependentes.Palavras-chave: Ensino de ciências. Prática docente. Formação permanente Abstract: Teacher training for Science Teaching is also essential  due to constant advances in this area, which must be accompanied by the teachers in training and in activity. Thus, this work aimed to investigate teachers' conceptions about aspects of initial and continuing training that influence their work in the classroom. For that, a qualitative research was developed through interviews with science teachers from five public schools in Paraíba, Brazil. Results indicated a predominant idea of distance between initial and continued training, whose first is considered sufficient for the performance in class, while the last is interpreted as a complementation. In addition, it prevailed among teachers the conception that practice in the classroom and graduation course have an equal relevance to the teaching performance. Possibly, practice is interpreted as a way of consolidating what was learned in the initial formation and a justification for the lack of continuity in professional formation. It is proposed, therefore, that teacher education be seen as a permanent process in which the knowledges built during initial and continuing training be interdependent.Keywords: Science teaching.

Medical Interest

The national or local lockdowns in response to COVID-19 forced education systems to rapidly shift from in-person to distance learning. The hasty transition undoubtedly imposed tremendous challenges on teachers, students and distance learning infrastructure. The purpose of this study was to investigate how high school science teachers who had previously been trained in flipped-learning and advanced educational technology through the Science Teaching Excites Medical Interest (STEMI) program perceived their transition to distance learning during this pandemic. In this study eleven teachers were interviewed with a semi-structured interview guide. Data were analyzed using the deductive-inductive content analytic approach. Our results indicated that teachers reported having more confidence in using technology for teaching online due in part to their participation in the STEMI program. They also reported internet access as one of the most significant barriers, both for students and teachers. While some teachers thought that students may feel more in control of learning due to absence of time and place limits with distance learning, others may struggle to stay engaged without the classroom support they would normally have received. Teachers generally experienced increased workloads and harder work–life balance with online teaching. In spite of the unforeseen challenges, the pandemic situation afforded teachers with opportunities to adopt different technology in teaching and foresee the need for technology integration in order to better prepare for the unexpected in the future.
