As a guide star: Corumbá’s fresh graduate teachers’ view on PIBID

Abstract

This article presents the research which looked into the impact of the “Institutional Teaching Initiation Scholarship Program” (PIBID) in the life of recently graduated teachers, ex-PIBIDians of the Pedagogy’s course at the Mato Grosso do Sul’s University (UFMS), Pantanal’s Campus (CPAN) in Corumbá. In a qualitaty approach, the field research applied a semi-structured scripted interview with four fresh graduate teachers, egressed from the PIBID. The data analysis indicated that the participation in PIBID has had a positive change in the ex scholarship holders’ lives, bringing constructive experiences not only in their academic lives, but also professional ones, contributing to the teachers’ constitution by articulating the knowledge and understandingness developed during PIBID. It stands out, therefore, how much programs that promote the praxis between university and school, like PIBID, are indispensable in the life of future teachers.
