"Philosophy teacher training for high school" - an analysis from data of reality supplied by teachers from Paraná

Abstract

This paper analyzes the formation of the Philosophy teacher for high school from data obtained in response to a questionnaire given to a group of teachers who work especially in Londrina and region (NRL), including some belonging to a neighbor Regional Education Center. The text consists of two core parts, the first of which ruled on data provided by the Census 2011 of the state of Paraná, in which we can situate the philosophy teachers in the state, in Londrina and region. The second part presents the answers provided by philosophy professors from the questionnaire questions prepared for this purpose. All these data is analyzed in this study, having some of the authors important theoretical beacons in the comments, suggestions and final referrals of the text. We believe that, given the historic and input-output situation in the institutionalized Brazilian school environment, such a course currently requires professionals aware of the arguments on which they sustain their work. If Philosophy is present in the current school curriculum, it needs to be clear its proposal in the list of other disciplines, the problems it faces and possible ways forward. "Philosophy Teaching" then becomes an imperative issue to philosophers, especially the philosophers of education.
