Pre-service physics teacher profile in UFABC: an analytic study about biographical crises and choice of the teaching career
The present work starts its debate through the literature on educational stratification and consequences for socially disadvantaged students. From the generated discussion, three major themes are elaborated that will guide the research efforts, are: CR and social stratification; Analysis of the pre-service physics teacher profile; Choice of the teaching career. The basis for the three major themes will be the literature on the sociology of education that deals with them and, fundamentally, the sociology of Pierre Bourdieu, with a focus on the concepts of cultural capital, exclusion, stigmatization; super-selection, the causality of the probable, and class ethos. To associate the themes, the proposed theoretical framework, and the study of the students' biographies, the concept of biographical crises was mobilized. Through the operationalization between the concepts of trajectory - proposed by Bourdieu - and the biographical crises, the objective is to create another dimension of analysis of the agent's biographies. The methodological approach chosen to account for this integration will be the mixed sequential and associative methodology, unifying tools such as Multiple Correspondence Analysis (ACM), statistical analysis of microdata, and semi-structured interviews. As preliminary results, it is possible to emphasize the tendency of approximation of lower-income coefficients for fractions of less privileged classes, possible elitization of the students of the degree in physics - leading to an approximation of the profile of the most privileged courses at UFABC - and placing In a position between such courses and undergraduate degrees, students who are already pursuing a degree in physics have less interest in the teaching career than students who intend to take it.
