THE BABY'S FREE PLAY IN DAY CARE: SUBJECTIVE PROCESSES AND DEVELOPMENT
Subjectivity; subjective constitution; interpretive construction; teaching; early childhood education
This research aims to understand the subjective teaching constitutions of Early Childhood Education teachers and their professional transformations in the face of the new challenges proposed by the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC, 2018). It was proposed to investigate in what ways the conceptions of the new normative document give rise to a re-signification of teaching practice, influence and contribute to the transformation or continuity of conceptions of children and childhoods, as well as the representations about the protagonism of students in articulation with activities that guarantee the proposed learning rights. The study was based on the Theory of Subjectivity, by González Rey, articulated with the Qualitative Epistemology approach that considers scientific knowledge in its procedural character and developed in articulation with the theoretical model. This methodological proposal assumed the active engagement of the researcher, based on a constructive and interpretative process based on indicators and hypotheses formulated during the course of the research. The field work was carried out in a kindergarten school in Brasilia, where the researcher works, and had three teachers with recognized teaching experience. From there, it was observed and interpreted how the process of subjective constitution of the professor integrates in the articulation of individual subjectivity and social subjectivity, professional experience and life history of these teachers. The research unfolded as a continuous reflection, stimulated the teacher's protagonism in the development of their pedagogical practice and theoretical training and put into discussion the significant importance of how educators think, live and feel teaching.
