Abstract

This article refers to a theoretical discussion research in progress that has as its object of study the analysis of the dimensions of construction of the professor of Geography of basic education identity. Therefore, as the main purpose, it is intended to understand how the personal histories and professional experiences of teachers are privileged means of reflection and the possibility of action in the improvement of teaching practice. The relevance of this theme is based on the fact that the professional dimensions always connected, inevitably, with the personal dimensions, being, therefore, interconnected with the teaching trajectories to the life trajectory itself. This work seeks to point out the close relationship of this professional identity in the formative perspective of becoming a Geography teacher, with his or her stories and learning experiences in the reality in which he or she finds itself. To this end, we intend to promote a study on the essential dimensions of the teaching identity because we believe that the resignification of the professional action of the Geography teacher can derive from the reflective perspective when understanding the professional development attached to the personal development. This is a qualitative research, based on the (auto) biographical method, with an emphasis on life stories, using the life narratives of the teachers subject to this research as a procedure for the data production.
