Abstract

The look at knowledge guide actions, being imperative for the teaching profession to have deep understading over the philosophical bases of science taught, as well as their own senses of education and teaching. Aiming to analyze the epistemological conceptions of Geography, as science and school discipline, expressed in (Self)Biographical narratives of graduates at UFPel/RS, this research was performed in three stages: Survey of the theoretical framework; data gathering with narrative interviews; and analysis of the produced data. As main results it was found a lack of self-referential reflections about epistemology of science and, also, a picture of epistemological disorientation due to the use of contradictory concepts to justify certain positionings.
