This contribution aims to describe the formation process of pre-primary and primary teachers in Italy. Some brief historical aspects about the development of the pre-primary and primary teacher curriculum are described to better understand how the formation process has changed in Italy in the last twenty years. A university degree course is now the basic requirement to become a teacher at pre-primary and primary level. In the description of the different parts which make up the Italian degree course curriculum, some pedagogical reflections are presented with their didactical and methodological implications.

Neste artigo, analisamos os saberes matemáticos na formação dos professores primário no Centro Educacional Teodoro Sampaio no período de 1954 – ano de sua inauguração como centro formador de professor primário – a 1971 – o ano em que foi sancionada a Lei 5.692, a qual reformou a Lei de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional de 1961 ao estabelecer uma nova classificação serial para a educação básica e ampliar a sua obrigatoriedade. Neste sentido, além de termos nos apoiado nas categorizações de saberes a ensinar e saberes para ensinar, apropriadas, recentemente, por Valente (2016), fizemos uso de documentos históricos pertencentes a esse centro de ensino e de uma historiografia da educação e da própria história. A partir dessa análise, argumentamos que pelo menos ao longo da década de 1960, nesse centro santamarense, os saberes a ensinar, dados nas disciplinas escolares continuavam tendo domínio na formação dos professores primários. Essa realidade permanecia mesmo após os saberes para ensinar, ainda que oscilando de um ano para outro, terem ganhado paulatinamente mais espaço na formação dos professores que ensinariam nas séries iniciais.Palavras-chave: Saberes Matemáticos.

In this sense, in addition to having been supported in the categories of knowledge to be taught and knowledge to teach, recently adapted by Valente (2016), we have used historical documents belonging to this teaching centre and a historiography of education and history itself. From this analysis, we argue that, at least during the 1960s, in the santamarense centre, the knowledge to be taught provided in the school subjects continued to dominate the formation of primary teachers. This reality remained even after the knowledge to teach, even though they oscillated from one year to another, they gradually gained more space in the formation of the teachers who would teach in the initial grades.Keywords: mathematical knowledge.

Teaching staffs in general and primary teachers in particular have been proven to contribute to great success of the comprehensive renovation process in the current Vietnamese education system. Significantly, pedagogical universities specialized in primary education should predominantly pay attention to the quality of training and meet the requirements of society. In the case of Tay Nguyen University in Vietnam, lecturer staffs involved in training of primary teachers have made great efforts in applying new teaching methods. Furthermore, it has been used effectively in many parts of the primary teacher training program is the project-based learning method. In this paper, in addition to general theories about the project-learning method, we will present the advantages of applying the teaching method in the primary teacher training program in general and in the "Crafts and Techniques" module in particular at Tay Nguyen University. Finally, discussion process of applying project-based learning and project evaluation methods of primary education students in teaching this module are preferred.

Different aspects impacted the work of primary school teachers in the 19th century: the lack of materials for the teaching of classes, the delay in paying salaries and the release of resources to pay the rent of the houses where the classes worked, the health issues that implied the removal of the teacher for treatment, among others. Given this context, the objective is to inform how the teaching profession was configured based on the challenges faced by primary teachers in the 19th century. As a research in the field of History of Education, newspapers and official communications will be taken as sources, being analyzed from the conceptions of configuration and representation. It is possible to perceive that the profession of primary teacher was configured in the face of challenges and confrontations, corroborating the construction of the representation of the qualified teacher in the 19th century.

Abstract According to the curricula all over the world symmetry plays an important role in the teaching geometry at primary levels. Geometry is one of topics that have the most problematic content knowledge for the prospective primary teachers. This paper studies the understanding of the symmetry of shapes among pre-service and in-service teachers to find out their visual perception of the geometric shapes symmetry and the symmetry axis. The aim is to create a symmetrical pattern with symmetry axis of the shapes. Evidence that only content-oriented professional development coursework taken by primary school math teachers appears effective, suggests that relatively more resources ought to be put into content focused training for teachers and that changes are warranted at the elementary level and in pedagogical in-service training generally. The primary teacher needs to be able to modify some proposed problems in order to get a richer mathematical activity, being aware of their mathematical benefits. It should be part of growing the capacity of analyzing didactically the mathematics activity.

In Western Australia the non-compulsory early years of school are administered by the compulsory schooling sector. Consequently, the ways in which pre-primary teachers are asked to account for their work have changed. Pre-primary teachers are asked to implement a school development plan and provide evidence of accomplishment of the school priorities. Such requirements have unsettled teachers, as they believe the ‘one size fits all’ application of school policies does not capture the essence of early childhood pedagogy and practice. This paper draws on qualitative and quantitative data collected during a study that investigated pre-primary teacher accountability from the policy level to the practicalities of classroom life. The study suggests that policies pertaining to the early years need to be written in such a way that meets the needs of the system, but also fits with the cultures of pre-primary teachers' classrooms.

Current serious environmental issues, such as deforestation, compel compulsory school education on the need for reflection on pedagogical practices to promote education for environmental sustainability. The educational process about the “tree as living being” requires that content and attitudinal dimensions be deeply integrated. Therefore, meaningful learning of biological similarity—between tree and animal—needs to be prioritised. It will promote the development of tree protection attitudes. Under this approach, an action research was developed to contribute to a future primary teacher education model. A didactic-pedagogical intervention was designed. It was implemented to assess the educational potential of infrared thermography in the development of ecocentric education. A group of students attending the 3rd year of primary education participated in this qualitative case study. The results revealed that ecocentric conceptions were constructed bringing these children closer to scientific knowledge. It resulted in the development of conservation/protection tree attitudinal learning. It is also worth mentioning the contribution of this study to (re)think (re)construction of the formative process of future primary teachers in order to: direct the teaching–learning process to environment real problems; and to promote the necessary debate on the contribution of technology to achieve innovation of pedagogical practices.

The student arrives a few minutes early. She is a little out of breath, as it has been quite a dash across town in heavy traffic from school. But she has made it for 4:30 and has a moment or two to collect her thoughts before going in to see her advisor. She has completed the requisite eight courses that are required before she starts on her major paper, including one course on research methods and one on educational statistics. She has an A- average and is quietly confident that she can do what is needed and proceed next June to graduate with an M.Ed. degree. She is the first member of her family to have earned any kind of university degree, and this additional qualification will be greeted with a lot of respect, even awe, by her relatives. All she ever wanted to be was a good primary teacher, and she is that, but the M.Ed. will be the icing on the cake.

The present study considers the sound-letter analysis of the word as a representative procedure in the formation of linguistic the methodological competence of students with professional qualification "primary teacher". The aim is to derive an appropriate algorithm for the application of this type of analysis in university education in accordance with the current curriculum at the initial stage of basic education. The study included 309 students at Trakia University – Stara Zagora. Through testing with a criterion-oriented test and the subsequent application of descriptive statistics, the typical difficulties in mastering the sound-letter analysis of the word in the perspective of students' success in the cognitive field of phonetics of modern Bulgarian language are considered. On the basis of the conducted research an algorithm is offered for carrying out the sound-letter analysis of the word according to the derived priorities in the linguistic-methodical preparation of the students in view of their future professional realization as teachers.
