PERSONAL SKILLS AND SKILLS NEEDED FOR REMOTE EDUCATION: A CASE STUDY IN SUPERVISED INTERNSHIPS AT UFABC
The internship period is the moment in which future teachers develop as professionals, appropriating practical knowledge acquired through real experiences in the field school in dialogue with the theoretical background from their academic studies. However, in the years 2020 and 2021, the practices of supervised internships were marked by drastic changes and adaptations due to the pandemic that affected all educational institutions, at all levels. Students and teachers had to adapt to the 'new normal', in order to minimize the damage caused by the pandemic, and it was in this scenario that Digital Information and Communication Technologies (TDIC) became even more present in the mediation between teacher, student and knowledge. In this way, the objective of this study seeks to investigate which skills and personal aptitudes were mobilized and developed by a group of interns from the Degree in Chemistry at the Federal University of ABC in relation to the use of TDIC during the remote internship period in 2020. This is a qualitative research addressing a case study, whose data were collected from the meetings of the interns with the guiding teacher recorded on video, in addition to questionnaires and written materials developed by the undergraduates. The analyzes were based on authors that deal with the knowledge necessary for the professional training of teachers such as M. Tardif (2012) and M. Altet (2001), among others, and on the skills and personal resources of Le Boterf (2003). The partial results show that the interns showed to know the importance of teacher training focused on the use of TDIC as important tools in the teaching and learning processes, given the difficulties they themselves had to perform their remote tasks. There was also a greater concern, on the part of the trainees, in relation to their personal skills and abilities (empathy, patience, flexibility, adaptability and creativity) than in relation to technical-pedagogical skills and knowledge ( syllabus and digital technologies) as necessary for a teacher to master remote work.
