Resumen
This paper presents the preliminary results of a longitudinal survey on pre-service teachers from the University of Bologna and their beliefs in respect to school and teaching. In particular it covers their motivations for teaching, which have been analyzed and then a validated scale with three sub-dimensions has been created. The purpose of the entire survey is to explore the presence of democratic beliefs during pre-services and observe how they evolve during teacher education and what factors affect them. The validated motivational scale (MTS) has allowed us to analyze the hypothesis that the motivations of social and political teachers are related to democratic beliefs.
