UNIVERSEEDUC: o papel da universidade corporativa da educação na construção de uma Educação 4.0 no Rio de Janeiro

Abstract

This research aims to understand the proposed role of the Corporate University of Education as a reference in continuous training for teachers working in selected schools to develop the project of New Technologies and Opportunities Schools within the state education network of Rio de Janeiro, seeking the appropriation of technological mediation, in line with "Education 4.0." The motivation for this investigation stemmed from the need to offer continuous training and in-service development for state education network teachers stationed at these school units, focusing on developing students in technology, sustainability, art, and sports in an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary manner. From a theoretical framework perspective, the study chose to address themes such as continuous training, in-service development, use of technological mediation, corporate university, and government school. The research, of a qualitative nature, is understood as a case study with characteristics of bibliographic and historical-documentary research, conducted at the State Department of Education of Rio de Janeiro. Data were collected from documentary, bibliographic, and historical sources. Data collected on the same topic, provided by the federal government, aided in the data triangulation required to conclude the research. Based on the analyses conducted, in light of the selected theoretical foundation, it was possible to conclude the restrictive impact of the continuous training offered by the state department, which was insufficient for the appropriation of the technological skills required by Education 4.0. The results also indicated that the acquisition of technological competencies aligned with Education 4.0 requires that public education policies be state policies to avoid extinction with governmental changes.
