Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: This study analyzes the contributions of the courses Theatre Pedagogical Research and Practice III and Supervised Internship IV to the initial education of Theatre teachers, focusing on practice within Non-Formal Education contexts in the Teacher Education Degree in Theatre at the Federal University of Tocantins. Conducted between 2023 and 2025, the research analyzed evaluations produced by students enrolled in both subjects. The study is grounded in the concepts of Non-Formal Education by Gohn (2011; 2013; 2015), Trilla (2008), Libâneo (1992) and Gadotti (2005), as well as in discussions regarding teacher education, theory-practice integration, and critical, reflective teaching proposed by Freire (1996), Pimenta and Lima (2017), Nóvoa (2017), and Tardif (2020). The results indicate that the integration of research, pedagogical practices, and supervised internship in Non-Formal Education contexts strengthens the initial training of Theatre teachers, broadening their understanding of different educational spaces and fostering a critical, consistent, and contextualized professional practice.
