As contribuições do PIBID na formação docente: um relato de experiência na Licenciatura em Ciências Biológicas.

Abstract

This paper presents an analysis of the contributions of the Institutional Program for Teaching Initiation Grants (PIBID) to initial teacher training, with a focus on the Bachelor's Degree in Biological Sciences. PIBID, created with the purpose of bringing undergraduates closer to the reality of public schools, is an important educational policy aimed at developing teaching practice. The research aimed to understand the contributions of this program to the training of future Biological Sciences teachers, using a qualitative approach based on experience reports as a methodology. The activities developed during the program were analyzed, such as classroom observations, development of pedagogical projects, laboratory practices and participation in scientific events. The activities were carried out at the Instituto Federal de Amapá on the Macapá and Laranjal do Jari campuses and at the Mineko Hayashida State Civic Military School in Laranjal do Jari, from November 2022 to March 2024. The results indicate that PIBID plays a crucial role in integrating theory and practice, providing concrete experiences in the school environment and favoring the development of essential pedagogical skills, such as classroom management, development of teaching methodologies and adaptation to different social contexts. In addition, the program contributes to the valorization of the teaching career, promoting critical reflection on the role of the teacher in society and strengthening the professional identity of undergraduate students. This study reaffirms the relevance of PIBID as a strategic educational policy, capable of positively impacting the quality of teaching in Brazil and facing the challenges inherent to teacher training in a scenario marked by inequalities and emerging demands.
