In this paper we defend that one of the main drawbacks in
Portuguese first language teaching in Brazil is the teachers’ difficulty to sustain a
specific discourse about their object of expertise, which in turn puts their
professional status at stake. In order to revert this, we have been studying how a
“professional teacher’s discourse” comes into being by analyzing pieces written by
undergraduate students in Languages and Literature. We present here an analysis
of an internship report based on the concept of “image” such as proposed by
Pêcheux (1969). We discuss particularly writing procedures that favor the subject’s
evading her own experience more than using it to build new knowledge. In this case,
instead of using theoretical instruments, the subject clings to explanations that stand
beside her object of analysis, moved by the need to conceal an image she sustains of
herself as a teacher. The result is a construction that can hardly push towards any
educational improvement, but rather preserves the layman character of her discourse. |
