Abstract

This article argues that teacher training can benefit from a multicultural and argumentative view, from which teaching strategies and teaching training practices are valued as means of promoting critical dialogues. The first part points out the debate about the concept of multiculturalism, its different aspects and its development in education. The second one suggests some linkages between multiculturalism and the theory of argumentation developed by Perelman and Olbrechts-Tyteca (1999), which recommends that subjects of the dialogue are seen as bearers of the right of putting themselves in reputable positions. The multicultural perspective is perceived as a process of argumentation so as to promote the dialogue of differences, which can result in positive impacts on didactics and teaching training practices. Methodology is hybrid, being theoretical and practical, by linking the argument with illustrations of qualitative and participatory research that translate the multicultural and argumentative approach n teaching experiences and in teaching training practices, discussing their possibilities and challenges. Keywords: teaching training practices and multicultural teaching strategies, theory of argumentation, bullying.

Highlights

  • De fato, a teoria da argumentação e o multiculturalismo surgem no bojo de inúmeros sinais de esgotamento ao que, por longos anos, serviu como sustentação filosófica apoiada nos cânones da certeza e do universalismo da razão cartesiana. Hall (2003) destaca os principais movimentos dessa ruptura, tais como: o estudo do inconsciente, por Freud, o posicionamento feminista, as relações de poder a partir de estudos de Foucault, dentre outros

Summary

Introduction

A teoria da argumentação e o multiculturalismo surgem no bojo de inúmeros sinais de esgotamento ao que, por longos anos, serviu como sustentação filosófica apoiada nos cânones da certeza e do universalismo da razão cartesiana. Hall (2003) destaca os principais movimentos dessa ruptura, tais como: o estudo do inconsciente, por Freud, o posicionamento feminista, as relações de poder a partir de estudos de Foucault, dentre outros. Do ponto de vista epistemológico, o referencial é pertinente porque fornece elementos para o estudo das práticas argumentativas presentes na relação entre oradores e auditórios envolvidos nos processos educativos, tais como nas estratégias didáticas e em práticas formativas eminentemente multiculturais, percebendo em que medida as categorias são articuladas à relação identidade/ diferenças de maneira efetivamente dialógica, contribuindo para a análise crítica das teorias pedagógicas e de seus discursos.
