Continuing Teacher Training and the Promotion of School Research:

Necessary Articulations

Abstract

This study reveals a partnership between a study group from a federal university and a school in Rio Grande do Sul. It explores a continuous process of training through workshops and school research. Inserted in action research and focusing on the Reassessment/Reflection phase, the study highlights perceptions, challenges, and positive aspects of classroom research. The results show that research is an essential tool for reflection and construction of knowledge, increasing student interest and allowing the definition of relevant themes. Continuing training brought significant benefits, improving the effectiveness of classes and encouraging reflection on teaching-learning. However, challenges such as student disinterest, inadequate infrastructure, and time constraints were identified. In conclusion, this partnership generated significant consequences, reflecting on the professional development of teachers and the quality of education, promoting solid teacher training.
