Subject of learning and plots of teaching in contemporneity

Abstract

Research, teaching practices, and personal reflections made during the last few years give rise to this work that shows the fractures encountered in teacher-student practice in the university. Fractures reveal a significant gap between theoretical qualification of university professors - mostly doctors - and the results that the students obtain in the ENADE examinations. This slot is due in part to the lack of pedagogical preparation of teachers. The text reflects on three themes, which although different, are complementary, namely: a) the malaise in contemporary education, b) the vicissitudes of those involved in teaching and learning (teachers and students) and c) plot in superior level teaching, disorders, learning difficulties and problems. Aware of the responsibility that gives us the teaching profession, the topics covered in the text are marked in reflection, in epistemology and ethics, looking for that teaching practice is scientifically excellent, intellectually reflective, socially committed and morally ethical.
