Resumo: This article analyzes the social representations of teaching in higher education shared by students at this level. We assume that the scenario of changes and expansion of higher education interferes in building social representations and involves in the process of professionalization. The theoretical and methodological framework adopted in the inquiry was Moscovici’s Theory of Social Representations. The qualitative research had, as empirical field, a private higher education institution. The subjects, 21 teacher education students from different majors, answered to a semi-structured interview, and the data were treated with the support of the content analysis technique, by Bardin (2010). Higher education teaching was represented as a profession that requires specific knowledge and skills, set up as an activity that demands commitment, responsibility and ethics. The findings of this research suggest the need for investments in teacher training and in the development of pedagogical knowledge and skills required for teaching.

Parte do pressuposto que o cenário de transformações e expansão da educação superior interfere na construção de representações sociais e implica o processo de profissionalização docente. O referencial teórico-metodológico adotado na investigação foi a Teoria das Representações Sociais, de Moscovici. A pesquisa, de natureza qualitativa, teve como campo empírico uma instituição de ensino superior privada. Os sujeitos, 21 estudantes de licenciaturas diversas, responderam a uma entrevista semiestruturada, cujos dados foram tratados com o suporte da Análise de Conteúdo, de Bardin. A docência no ensino superior foi representada como profissão que requer conhecimentos e competências específicas, constituída como atividade que demanda compromisso, responsabilidade e ética. Os achados da presente investigação sugerem a necessidade de investimentos na formação pedagógica dos professores e no desenvolvimento dos saberes pedagógicos e das competências necessárias à docência.Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais2016-05-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/rdes/article/view/211510.35699/2237-5864.2016.2115Revista Docência do Ensino Superior; Vol. 6 No. 1 (2016); 211-234Revista Docência do Ensino Superior; Vol. 6 Núm. 1 (2016); 211-234Revista Docência do Ensino Superior; v. 6 n. 1 (2016); 211-2342237-58642358-6338reponame:Revista Docência do Ensino Superior (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/rdes/article/view/2115/1387Copyright (c) 2016 Mônica Patrícia Sales, Laêda Bezerra Machadoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSales, Mônica Patrícia da SilvaMachado, Laêda Bezerra2020-05-19T18:07:48Zoai:periodicos.ufmg.br:article/2115Revistahttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/rdes/indexPUBhttps://periodicos.ufmg.br/index.php/rdes/oairevistadocenciaensinosuperior@ufmg.br||2237-58642237-5864opendoar:2020-05-19T18:07:48Revista Docência do Ensino Superior (Online) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
