Keywords:
Teaching method. Summary. Seminar. Teaching and learning. Initiation to teaching.Abstract
This article reports an interdisciplinary educational experience held in the School of Library Science at the Federal University of Ceará, in order to present and discuss the possibilities of using summaries and seminars and their influences concerning the teaching and learning process of the students in this course. In order to do so, we considered how these methodologies were being adopted by the students and assessed by the professors, paying attention to the way the afore mentioned methodologies were employed in the classroom. Our research was employed through the study of the corresponding literature of these methodologies, identifying possible disparities existing in the application and use of these tools. In the following moment, we organized two seminars in order to explain in more detail what constitutes the exercise of making summaries and how the seminars should be presented. The results of these experiences of initiation to teaching demonstrated that the actions put into practice by the monitors contributed decisively to the comprehension and understanding of the methodologies of teaching and learning in the perspective of the topics herein covered, allowing the exchange of unique experiences with professors, involvement with the everyday teaching activity, and especially the awakening to the academic venture.Downloads
