Abstract

The article discusses the teacher training for primary school based on experience in
public universities in Brazil and in the state of North Westphalia in Germany. We seek to understand
the articulation between social, cultural and human education and the technical and specialized training
of teachers for this educational stage in these universities and countries. Based on a reconstructive
hermeneutical approach, the research, carried out in 2017, was conducted through the comparison between teacher training courses in both countries, based on documental analysis of the legal guidelines
and the pedagogical proposals for four teacher training courses for primary school (two Brazilian and
two German), as well as narrative interviews with Brazilian and German specialists from the same
institutions. The research indicates that, regardless of the fact that both universities have equal interest
in the quality of technical professionalization, in the courses analyzed in Germany this specialized
training is given more emphasis there than in Brazil. This reflects the economic imperatives that guide
education in that country and the consequent need for technical training. However, regarding the
Brazilian courses to which we had access, space for life-world reproduction and criticism of the system,
indispensable for a more humanized life, emerges more prominently.
