Abstract

FIOROT, Meire Andersan; ORTEGA, Antonio Carlos; PESSOTTI, Alice Melo  and  ALVES, Valdilene Turini. Analysis of the teachers awareness process through Traverse game. PsicoUSF [online]. 2008, vol.13, n.2, pp. 165-175. ISSN 1413-8271.

This research aims at investigating, in microgenetics perspective, the awareness process of four teachers through a rules game. The research procedure was organized into two stages: the instruction and experiment. In both of them the Traverse game was used. A lot of questions were offered so that the teachers could make reflections about the situations experienced in the game. The results showed an evolution in the comprehension levels of the logical system of the game, with intermediate moments that indicated a parcial awareness of the action. The main difficulty in this process was the comprehension of the intersystemic dialectics of the game. Faced with this evidence, we suggest a deeper reflection about the learning contexts wich have been offered to the teachers in their instructional processes, considering that ones's profissionalization requires a careful awareness process about his particular learning process.
