The text seeks initially to call attention to the different conceptions that underlie the logic presiding over the teaching practices, and that organizing the formative processes. It goes on to propose that the pedagogical knowledges, seen as structuring elements of the professional knowledge, can be the necessary link to produce the dialogues between those two instances, which coexist in the social practice of teacher education, albeit often in an unconnected way. The article then tries to analyze the possibilities of practice as a constitutive and fertilizing element of teacher education. The work highlights the different ideas of practice, observing that there is a practice that simultaneously forms, informs, and transforms the subject and his/her circumstances, and there is a practice that oppresses, distorts and congeals the subject under it, and in this case the subject can lose touch with his/her circumstances. The article shows studies and researches that demonstrate that practice is always wider than initially supposed, and always less intelligible than it was necessary to assume. It proposes to overcome the technicist meaning that currently attends the representation of supervised internships, toward education practices organized into new units of meaning that contribute to shape and sustain a new teacher professional identity fit to play a role in contemporary public schools.
