This study presents the partial results of a research developed aiming
at investigating the epistemological profile, attitudes and reactions
of future Primary School teachers. It was developed through
workshops focused on experimentation with low-cost materials
in the field of static electricity. Participative observation
was the main technique used for data collecting. The results have
pointed out conceptual, linguistic and psycho-cognitive
obstacles, but they have also shown positive responses from the
research subjects such as concern with their teaching practice and
the student’s learning. Most participants presented ideas which
agreed with constructivist concepts regarding teaching and
learning, however, contradictions indicating difficulties in
breaking with traditional pedagogical patterns remained in some
speeches. It was concluded that the experimental methodology
besides having favored cognitive development and investigative
attitudes, it also made possible, thanks to mediation and interaction,
an awareness on the use of innovative pedagogical strategies
in the classroom.
