“Flores que nascem em celas”: um relato de experiência sobre o contato como ferramenta na formação de futuros docentes

Abstract

This paper presents an experience report built around the life of a Biological Sciences degree student, from the Federal University of Ceará, about the happenings occurred between August of 2013 and June of 2019. In this report, the narrative of my encounter with the teacher and librarian Jovita Alves Feitosa, who for more than fifteen years coordinated the prison education in the state of Ceará, is explored alongside with the personal impacts generated by this event, bringing up reflections about the role interpersonal contact plays as a tool in the process of teaching transformation. In addition, perceptions around the college environment are brought, as well as visions about the importance experience represents in the existence of individuals. Therefore, this Final Paper presents experiences with the objective of exploring and discussing the importance of contact in the life of an educator.
