Resumo: Grounded Theory is one of the most commonly used types of qualitative research. However, in Portugal, it is little applied in the educational sciences, despite its potential for the study of complex environments, such as education. This dissonance suggests that this type of research is not sufficiently well known, or it is believed to be difficult to use. My objective is to offer a panoramic view of Grounded Theory, which constitutes a model to initiate the practice. I describe when it becomes relevant, the steps and characteristics of the process (data collection to build theory, open coding, immediate data analysis, induction, openness, memos and constant comparison) and the expected scientific product. I conclude that the use of this research type can contribute to scientific developments, as it is based on flexible and heuristic procedures and welcomes the uncertain nature of education and the serendipity that emerges from it.

Sin embargo, en Portugal, es poco movilizado en Ciencias de la Educación, a pesar de su potencial en el estudio de entornos complejos, como la educación. Esta disonancia sugiere que la modalidad no tiene la divulgación adecuada o se entiende que es difícil de usar. En esa medida, mi objetivo es ofrecer una visión panorámica de la Grounded Theory, que constituye un modelo de iniciación a la práctica. Utilizo mi experiencia de principiante en la modalidad para describir cuándo se vuelve relevante, los pasos y características del proceso (recopilación de datos para construir teoría, codificación abierta, análisis inmediato de datos, inducción, apertura, memorandos y comparación constante) y el producto científico esperado. Concluyo que el uso de la modalidad puede contribuir a los desarrollos científicos, porque se basa en procedimientos flexibles y heurísticos y acoge la naturaleza incierta de la educación y la serendipia que emerge de ella.La Grounded Theory est l’une des modalités les plus utilisées dans la recherche qualitative.

Cette dissonance suggère que la modalité n’a pas une divulgation adéquate ou est considérée comme difficile à utiliser. Dans cette mesure, mon objectif est d’offrir une vision panoramique de la Grounded Theory, qui constitue un modèle d’initiation à la pratique. J’utilise mon expérience de débutant dans la modalité pour décrire quand cela devient pertinent, les étapes et les caractéristiques du processus (collecte de données pour construire la théorie, codage ouvert, analyse immédiate des données, induction, ouverture, mémos et comparaison constante) et le produit scientifique attendu. Je conclus que l’utilisation de la modalité peut contribuer aux développements scientifiques, car elle repose sur des procédures flexibles et heuristiques et accueille le caractère incertain de l’éducation et la sérendipité qui en découle.A Grounded Theory é das modalidades mais usadas em pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa. Contudo, em Portugal, ela é pouco mobilizada nas Ciências da Educação, apesar do seu potencial para o estudo de ambientes complexos, como é a educação. Essa dissonância sugere que a modalidade não tem divulgação adequada ou é entendida como de uso difícil. Meu objetivo é oferecer uma visão panorâmica da temática que se constitua como um modelo de iniciação à prática. Descrevo quando é que ela se torna pertinente, os passos e caraterísticas do processo e o produto científico expectável. Concluo que o recurso à modalidade pode contribuir para desenvolvimentos científicos, porque assenta em procedimentos flexíveis e heurísticos e acolhe o caráter incerto da educação e a serendipidade que daí emerge.Fundação Carlos Chagas2022-04-25info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://publicacoes.fcc.org.br/cp/article/view/8563Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 52 (2022); e08563Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 52 (2022); e08563Cadernos de Pesquisa; Vol. 52 (2022); e08563Cadernos de Pesquisa; v. 52 (2022); e085631980-53140100-1574reponame:Cadernos de Pesquisa (Fundação Carlos Chagas.
