The purpose of this article is to discuss teacher training in Brazil considering the escalation of instrumental rationality in the field of education. The research is of a theoretical nature and is based on the understanding that there is harmony between the federal government and the guidelines of multilateral organizations regarding the development and dissemination of national policies in the field of education. We show how technical rationality manifests itself in the field of education and how this intervention has intensified and accelerated in recent years. We reaffirm the importance of understanding the present with a view to fostering forms of confrontation and resistance to the ongoing neoliberal societal project. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article aims to comprehend the narratives produced by two teachers about their profession in Alegrete city/Rio Grande do Sul (RS). The study characterized as a qualitative approach uses a narrative as a reaserch tool in Education. This is based at a vivencia I and experiencial rescue since the study colaboraters, as a teachers work valorization strategy and since their memories recognition. At our conclusive and re-inicializing considerations we evidencíate that the narrative is not limited by the critics on the entrewied teachers work. At the contrary the narrative presuppose a comprehention view concerning each participant at the educational field, as to know the teacher reality from the ones that are there. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
