The Practicum of Social Sciences at Two Ibero-American Universities.

The article presents a comparative study of some of the perceptions of future teachers at the University of Valencia (Valencia-Spain) and Francisco José de Caldas (Bogotá-Colombia) regarding their teaching performance. The sources used for the analysis were their practice reports, prepared after giving class. This study is carried out from a qualitative perspective verging on a case study, which allows us to understand a phenomenon in a detailed way. The initial training of professors in the didactics of social sciences is influenced by their perceptions, which show differences between classroom practice and the theory proposed in universities, forgetting educational practice.
