FROM WATCHER TO MANAGER: THE PEDAGOGUE UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Abstract

Searching the figure of the pedagogue required the present article to recover landmarks
from his own origin, to perceive them in their historical-educational process and to situate them in their
field of activity. For this, we will see, throughout the educational history traced in this research, that the
need for sectorization of pedagogical action has always been explicit in schools, since the first
educational systems implanted in Brazil it was thought about the responsibilities that go from the
organization of learning spaces to more administrative tasks. It is based on the effective exercise of the
three main pedagogical qualifications (coordination, supervision and guidance) that we think it is
possible to build the historical process of the position, as well as, a more organized, balanced and
efficient pedagogical management on all fronts and tasks that challenge the pedagogues in the daily
school life. Finally, we must recognize the importance of the sectorization of pedagogical activities in
the sense used by Rangel (2007), who aims at a collaborative and non-sectarian specialization of these
different pedagogical qualifications.
