Pedagogical Work in the School: what is it about?

Abstract:

The article presents an explanation of the category pedagogical work, considering it as fundamental in the description of what and how are the teachers working, and recovers meanings of this work in school. The study was based on principles of dialectical analysis, including bibliographic research, systematization of the data through content analysis and elaboration of arguments. The meanings of pedagogical work were distinguished, and the preponderance regarding the synonymous was presented. Pedagogical work was related to the teachers work, through discursive methods with which it is possible to describe the conceptions of this category in school. The research suggests that pedagogical work is the teachers work when, in school, there are spaces and times to produce knowledge in dialectical movements between the teachers’ individual education project and the institutional pedagogical project, which constitutes the pedagogical praxis.
