The importance of interdisciplinarity in the teaching-learning process has been much debated. This topic has challenged schoolteachers, who do not always manage to integrate interdisciplinarity into the school routine. This paper emerged from the discipline Research Methodology taught at the postgraduate course in education of Universidade Federal do Triângulo Mineiro. During this course, we sought to gain knowledge about the academic production related to interdisciplinarity in the teaching-learning process, mainly in terms of teacher training and teaching practice, published in dissertations and theses. We explored contents published from 2011 to 2016 in Brazil. The covered period was based on a search for recent productions on the proposed theme, conducted by using the database of the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations. Analyses of the documents pointed to the need to work interdisciplinarity during teacher training courses and to adopt an interdisciplinary posture in daily teaching practice in schools. These practices should help to overcome compartmentalization of the teaching-learning process and to provide students with a global view of the world.

Starting from 2011, year of the publication in Italy of Alain Berthoz's book on simplexity, an articulated theoretical reflection involved part of the Italian scientific community stimulating an inter-transdisciplinary debate that has generated "non-linear" trajectories of research within the educational field. In particular, the transposition of the theory of simplexity in the teaching-learning process, by postulating an idea of teaching based on a metacognitive approach, has led to the hypothesis of a teacher training model able to promote the exercise of "non-linearity" within the didactic field through the use of simplex properties and principles. In the wake of these reflections, the work presented below describes the results of a study aimed at assessing the reliability of an instrument for measuring the construct of simplexity within the didactic field starting from a specific research experience carried out during training courses for support teachers which were held at the University of Bergamo in 2017

Resumo A sala de aula é lugar de sentidos e significados que atravessam tudo aquilo que é social. É espaço onde se estabelece o diálogo com as coisas do mundo, com a dinâmica dos grupos, e com diversos fundamentos teóricos ligados a diferentes projetos, que vão desde a transformação dos sujeitos, por meio da educação, à transformação do mundo, através dos sujeitos educados. A partir de uma concepção de educação que reclama por um processo de “democratização da cultura”, buscou-se valorizar os roteiros culturais dos alunos do curso de formação de professores – Pedagogia da Terra/UFG. O foco central foi estimular, nos cursos de formação docente, a participação de alunos e professores no exercício da tolerância e coexistência de práticas que valorizem as diferenças culturais. A valorização da relação cultura-educação fez parte do processo, ajudou no exercício da coletividade, via emancipação e afirmação de direitos sociais, no entendimento e apropriação das demandas culturais dos estudantes ligados à Via Campesina.Palavras-chave: Relação Cultura-educação; Diferenças Culturais; Diversidade cultural.

Aligned with the constructivist approach, the term e-portfolio is considered to be an umbrella, actually comprising of various components reflecting both the teaching-learning process and the end products. Having many advantages, the use of e-portfolios is spreading all over the world. This chapter, in which issues such as conceptual underpinnings, possible advantages and challenges, implementation ideas, and content and assessment criteria for e-portfolios are also reviewed, concludes with suggestions for teachers who are interested in implementing e-portfolios into their own subject fields.

SOCIETY-NATURE RELATIONSHIPS IN PERSPECTIVE: ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION IN TEACHER TRAINING COURSES IN CHEMISTRY OF FEDERAL INSTITUTES IN BRAZIL. Environmental Education arises in the context of understanding the urgency of the environmental crisis and the need to seek answers for its mitigation. The different perspectives of AE compete for the affirmation of notions of the world, of society, of social well-being, of work and of life. The research investigated the conceptions of Environmental Education (EA) present in the scope of the Federal Institutes, having as corpus the Pedagogical Course Project (PPC) of teacher training courses in chemistry offered in these institutions in 23 states and in the Federal District. The documents were analyzed, in their entire body, with the aid of Textual Discursive Analysis (ATD). The results demonstrate the predominance of a conservative environmental education, of an apolitical and biologizing character, in the analyzed documents, what can be reflected in the profile of the chemical educator to be formed in these institutions.

Abstract Objective: To reflect on activities aimed at the development of graduation students, in a teaching internship program, in the perspective of master’s degree and doctoral graduate education and training. Method: It is a reflexive study, based on the discursive formulation about required competencies and guidelines proposed by the National Graduation Plan (named PNPG, Plano Nacional de Pós-Graduação) for professor training articulated to the graduate. Results: The teaching internship program is a way for the formation of university professors, through the preparation of the graduate student. In addition, it shows the relevance of the professor supervisor role in the construction of the learning of these individuals. Conclusion and implications for practice: The first contact with teaching practice, through the teaching internship program, is relevant for constructing a critical look at the teaching-learning process. In this type of Program, it is possible to learn to be and make teaching in a participatory manner, to value interactive relations, to boost autonomy, to stimulate self-evaluation and self-reflection of the graduate student, allowing them to participate actively in the learning process.

ICT has greatly influenced the way institutions operate in reaching and providing services to their clients. Many educational institutions have adapted their situations to meet the work demands and changing trends in education by adopting e-learning as a mechanism to reach the students who may have no time to sit in class due to their nature of work. TVET systems in Africa are slowly and steadily also starting to move towards implementing e-learning in their teaching learning process. This paper gives insight into the potential and situation of e-learning in TVET institutions in developing countries in Africa and points out major recommendations on how to improve in order to inform policy makers and other stakeholders in the TVET sector.</em></p></div>
