EDUCATION PROPOSALS WITH THE USE OF COLLECTIVE PORTFOLIOS IN DIALOGUE WITH SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH

ABSTRACT:

An overview of research on the use of portfolios in teacher education is presented, in order to identify propositions arising from the research and relate them to education proposals assumed in all of the public notices approved by Coordination for Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) in Institutional Teacher Training Scholarship (PIBID) of a Higher Education Institution (IES) for the use of portfolios. PIBID is briefly presented, and the mapping of scientific articles is described in its three stages: identification, classification and analysis. The classification of articles according to geographic regions has enabled us to realize that the theme is spread across all Brazilian regions and that the same is observed in relation to international productions. The analysis stage consisted of a categorization in the light of Discursive Textual Analysis. The resulting categories addressed research on: the portfolio itself; the portfolio for teacher evaluation; the portfolio as a student's reflection; the portfolio as a record of the training network; the portfolio as an institutional artifact for certification; the discourse of the participants about the portfolios; and the bibliographic discourse on portfolios. It has been concluded that there is resonance between the education proposals assumed for the use of portfolios in PIBID of an IES and the categories of analysis, with the exception of the proposal on the epistemic potency of writing. Some categories resulting from the mapping did not appear as education proposals: the portfolio for teacher evaluation, the portfolio as an institutional artifact for certification, and the portfolio by itself.
