A REPORT OF EXPERIENCES IN THE SUPERVISED INTERNSHIP II: TECHNICAL EDUCATION

Abstract

This article presents an account of the experiences lived during the Supervised Internship II at the Technical Education level, of the Licentiate Degree in Computing at the State University of Amazonas (UEA), at the Núcleo Superior de Coari (NESCO). The mandatory activities of the internship were carried out at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Amazonas (IFAM), Campus Coari, providing the interns with practical experience in the educational context, with the objective of verifying the pedagogical practices and observing the educational problems. The research adopts a qualitative approach, since it focuses on describing and reporting the practical experiences lived during the internship. Information was collected in the 1st to 3rd year classes, through observation and co-participation. The regency was elaborated from the problematic encountered. Considering the difficulty presented by the students in the Logic of Programming discipline, an action plan was elaborated to propose possible solutions to this problem. Using technological knowledge tools in the field of computing, developing theoretical content through an expository methodology, through PowerPoint multimedia presentation software, addressing the concepts and techniques used in the elaboration and resolution of problems through algorithms and logic functions of programming. In addition, a development of practical tasks carried out in the computer lab was structured, using the VisualG software, which is a program that edits, interprets and executes algorithms with a language close to Portuguese (PORTUGOL). Thus, the results found show that this experience of the Supervised Internship II is of fundamental importance for the undergraduate students in Computing, as it provides the opportunity to apply in practice the theoretical knowledge acquired during their academic training. Supervised Internship II provided a real work environment, where future computing teachers will be able to experience and face the challenges of teaching, observing and analyzing the development of students and teachers.
