Synopsis

In this book, Leonardo compares the curricula of UNIRIO's face-to-face and distance learning Pedagogy courses, seeking to understand the meanings given to the initial training of I.E. teachers. Using the metaphor 'meeting of rivers', the author delves into the projects of each course, situates them historically, analyses the subjects focused on I.E., interviews teachers and arrives at results that allow questions to be discussed about aspects of the breadth of Pedagogy courses. The comparison highlights gaps and needs in the initial training of pedagogue teachers, the specificities of teaching in I.E. and the meanings of distance learning which, at UNIRIO, trains three times as many teachers as face-to-face courses. The text brings us face to face with contemporary issues: the precariousness of teaching work, pedagogy today and the subtleties of teaching in nurseries and pre-schools. In a committed and involved way, the author ends his work with a poem about the meeting of rivers, which mix lovingly in favour of teacher training that is sensitive and affects children.
