Presentation
The transformation of the structure of the higher education study cycles within the Bologna Process implies that the qualification for teaching is now at the master’s level, with a view to enhancing the quality of the preparation and the corresponding socio-professional status (Decree -Law No 43/2007).
Thus, this master’s course in the Teaching of Visual and Technological Education in Basic Schooling (5th and 6th grades) aims to provide an effective response to the training needs arising from the constant and legitimate change of times and the diversity of the current school. It also aims to develop critical and reflexive thinking for an adequate pedagogical intervention and to encourage an open spirit to cultural diversity, social difference and students’ learning difficulties.
On the one hand, it gives professional qualification for the teaching of Visual and Technological Education in basic schooling and, on the other hand, while allowing the accreditation of several CUs in the syllabus, it enables in-service training of already professionalized teachers, ensuring lifelong learning and continuous knowledge updating.
