Estudo de caso da prática docente: do tema mitificado ao tema concreto

Abstract

This work sought to understand the importance of the cancer theme in the school itinerary from 2016 to 2017 of a high school technical student. The earliest drivers led us to understand the relation of the object of knowledge mythology of the teaching practice, the controversy of the synthetic phosphoethanolamine, with the patient’s history of cancer research work carried out by the student and his group, for the scientific show of the school . The research-training biographical approach obtained further links by means of semi-structured interview in oral and written reports and in the supervised student report. In the correspondence relations of the sources we obtained eight stages of decoding, revealing the yearnings that the student had in discovering her vocation, as well as the evolution of this idea during the process of formation in the: reflexive process; transformation of cosmogony; socialization of experience; metabolization of the theme – mythologized to concrete. Therefore, we find that the theme cancer, challenged the student to respond and discover their vocation, achieve awareness and the theme of life. In the act of reflection in a dialectic interrelationship when the narratives of the object of mythic knowledge (abstract) transpose the life history of the patient of neoplasia (concrete), it decodes the object of knowledge and understands the themes of reality and as performed in concrete acts in the context of life. Thus, in reading by identification and differentiation with the narratives, he was recognized and found in the struggle of the other cancer patients and the chemist Chierice.
