RESUMO

This paper is inserted in a teaching-learning context where the outstanding points that emerge at first from the students behavior are the absence of interest, participation and motivation, indiscipline and mainly insufficient learning. As participants in a constructivist proposed continuous training Project for about six years we could follow the evolution of participating teachers and the difficulties they found in the classroom. Starting from a systematic observation and classroom reports by a group of teachers as well as half-structured interviews with some students, we elaborated an analysis instrument that allowed us to identify attitudes, actions and reactions of these actors in their classroom interaction revealing the situations in which the significant dialogue between teacher and students is set up, maintained and broken. We adopted a constructivist analysis perspective based on the concepts of Vigotsky, about development and socio-historic construction of knowledge and of Paulo Freire on the construction and constitution of knowledge and the teacher work. Therefore we could identify, in different phases of the construction of this dialogue/non-dialogue, the dimensions of the teacher work: his performance and behavior in face of his task and his students, teaching evaluation and intervening external factors. Our conclusions point to an instability in dialogue construction and maintenance by the teachers, connected in part to deficiencies in specific Physics knowledge and also because they were in a stage of reconstruction of their didactic practice and of their identity as a teacher that takes into account the students previous ideas in his planning and that is concerned with effective learning. The students expectations regarding to the teacher action and social and organizational factors which affect actors in the teaching-learning process are decisive influences for maintaining or breaking the classroom dialogue.
