Abstract
Este artigo pretende disseminar resultados de uma investigação cuja principal finalidade era
compreender o impacto do processo de Reorganização Curricular do Ensino Básico português nas
práticas curriculares e dinâmicas de trabalho de professores de Ciências Físicas e Naturais. O primeiro
momento do estudo empírico assumiu uma natureza quantitativa, referindo-se os resultados a 1122
questionários preenchidos por professores que lecionavam as disciplinas da área das Ciências Físicas e
Naturais. O segundo momento, de índole qualitativa, pretendeu aprofundar os dados quantitativos,
através da realização de entrevistas a seis dos professores participantes no primeiro momento. Os
resultados obtidos sugerem uma apropriação epidérmica dos conceitos centrais ao atual discurso
educativo e indiciam que a implementação do processo de Reorganização Curricular não se traduziu
em mudanças efetivas de práticas e dinâmicas de trabalho docente. Face a esta realidade, considera-
mos imprescindível uma ação concertada entre professores, instituições de formação inicial e contí-
nua e a administração central.
This paper intends to disseminate the results of a study whose main aim was to understand the impact of the Basic Education Curricular Reorganisation for the curricular practices and collabo- ration dynamics of Natural and Physical Sciences teachers. The empirical study adopted a quantitative approach and the results report on 1122 questionnaires completed by Natural and Physical Sciences teachers. To deepen these results, we collected qualitative data, obtained from interviews with six Natural and Physical Sciences teachers who participated in the first part of the study. The results obtained suggest a superficial appropriation of the central concepts concerning current education discourse and indicate that the implementation of the Basic Education Curriculum in Portugal doesn’t produce effective changes in teachers’ practices. We consider this requires essential and concerted action between teachers, Education Institutes and Central Administration.
