CONTEXTUALIZAÇÃO NA FORMAÇÃO INICIAL DE PROFESSORES DE CIÊNCIAS E A PERSPECTIVA EDUCACIONAL DE PAULO FREIRE

This work proposes to support theoretical and methodological reflections on contextualized practice in the initial teacher training and in teaching Science, from Paulo Freire's educational perspective. The proposal builds on the work Extension or Communication?, from the aforementioned author. The elements identified as contextualized approach possibilities are not conclusive, but they are reflections that open paths for a work contextualized in teacher's training and science education, especially about cutting off training guided in technical rationality assumptions. In general, the contribution is that it highlights Freire's perspective in overcoming educational extension conceptions.
