RESUMO
This is a descritive and analytical study of teacher formation courses with corresponding courses without said purpose offered by the State University of São Paulo (Universidade Estadual Paulista) at the same college and under the control of the same board. The opinions of the students who got teaching credencial in 1993, obtained by means of a questionnaire for open answers intended to show the formation process they went thought, the main contributions and shortcomings of their courses, their experiences and their teachers performances, were considered. The coordinators of the Course Boards and the hteachers of the several teacher formation courses indicated by the students were inteviewed. Other information were collected from documents and catalogs issued by the Undergraduate Dean s Office and the Course Boards. The data were analyzed from the qualitative point of view. The history of the teacher formation courses in Brazil, the foundation of UNESP, and the contribution of scientific meetings dealing with teacher formation in this country were also studied. The main conclusions suggest that each of the studied courses leading to the degree of Licenciate organizes itself individually and that most of them are mainly concerned with the Bachelor s degree, underestimating teacher formation. Along with the contributions that such courses offer to the formation of teachers, their deficiencies are evinced, and suggestions for their improvement are presented. Due to the nature of this study, the conclusions cannot be generalized, but they constitute references for the understanding of analogous situations
