Resumen
In recent years, the discussions and reflections about the continued education of teachers have grown, mainly due to concerns related to teaching quality. Based on this, this study investigates the continuous education processes of teachers of courses in Mathematics who work in public and private higher learning institutions in Curitiba, Brazil, considering the phases and cycles of the teaching career elaborated by Huberman (1992): Entry into the career (first three years); Stabilization phase (from 4 to 6 years); Phase of experimentation and diversification (from 7 to 25 years); Stage of serenity and emotional distancing(between 25 and 35 years of career); and the disinvestment phase (between 35 and 40 years). The objectives of the research were to verify whether or not there is a relation between the professional life cycles proposed by Huberman and the continuous education of teachers in the studied institutions; Examining the types of continued education carried out by the surveyed teachers; And to analyze the teachers' perception about their continuous education throughout their professional career. The research is of a bibliographical documentary and field character. In the theoretical basis, the works of Nóvoa (1992), Goodson (1992), Huberman (1992) and Ferraroti (1988) were used, among others. Nineteen teachers participated in the interviews. Based on the analysis of the obtained results, it was verified that the theory by Huberman has a high degree of assertiveness, with the possibility of identifying the phases described by the author in the reports and experiences of each of the interviewees.
