Abstract

This Dissertation, entitled "Perceptions of Art teachers on professional training: analysis of the training policy for the municipal teaching network teachers of Dourados-MS" is associated with the Group of Studies on Education Policies and Management (GEPGE), from the Graduate Program in Education (PPGEDU), within the Faculty of Education (FAED), at the Federal University of Grande Dourados (UFGD), and it is interrelated to a broader investigation called “The Configuration of the Supervised Internship in Licensure at UEMS and UFGD and its repercussions for teacher training”. This qualitative research, with topic on teacher training, has the general aim of analyzing the perception of Art teachers from Dourados-MS about Initial and Continuing Formation for professional practice and it is classified as field research, having as main source of data, the interviews carried out with permanent Art teachers of the Initial Years of Elementary School of schools in the urban area of ​​Dourados-MS, with a temporal perspective in the quadrennium 2017-2020. This information is contextualized from the documentary analysis and by dialoguing with the production of the area on the subject. The research subjects comprise eight teachers who agreed to contribute by sharing information to this study, through semi-structured interviews, as a data collection technique. For analysis and discussion of the data, four dimensions of analysis were created based on the themes elaborated in the interview questions, being "Teaching Performance Profile", "Professional Performance Profile", "Perceptions about continuing education" and "Perceptions about Professional Performance". The results indicate that, despite the achievement of Goal 15 of the Municipal Education Plan (PME) – which aims to train all teachers of basic education in licensure in the area of ​​expertise, and all participating teachers have such a level – the initial formation in Art is not enough for the teacher’s performance, so continuing training for the performance of this professional is essential About Goal 16, which aims to train 50% of basic education teachers in postgraduate courses and to ensure continued training in the area in which they work, it was partially fulfilled, having among the sample of research participants, 87.5% of them were post graduated, however, in the period studied, no courses of continuing education were offered regularly in the art area. In addition to the absence of a specific theme about their use (in ​​Art or ​​education), the courses offered by the Municipal Department of Education and by the school units were not satisfactory and contributed little to the teaching practice. Thus, to have a quality art teaching, achieve effectiveness in the area and collaborate for the best quality of basic education teaching in Dourados-MS, it is necessary to rethink the role of the professional of this discipline in Elementary School, to value the curricular component as an area of knowledge and develop Continuing Formation courses focused on the area of work, and with training teachers with qualification in Art.
