Professors Ada Brasileiro and Viviane Pimenta, from UFOP Letters Department, presented a seminar on Monday (20) at the University of Lorraine, in the city of Nancy, France. The presentation was entitled “What Does a Teacher Do? The Need to Name Teachers’ Invisible Work.”
Ada highlighted the positive reception of the research. According to her, the concept of invisible work was very well-accepted by researchers in the French university.
Developed as part of Professor Ada’s postdoctoral fellowship, the seminar is the result of a research project that began in 2018. The study aims to identify and describe the use of language as a tool employed by teachers in the transmission of knowledge. In addition, the research emphasizes the importance of valuing and recognizing the teaching profession.
“For us, who came to carry out a comparative analysis of teachers’ work in Brazil and France, this was a highly symbolic moment of exchange, representing the recognition of Brazilian research work within the French academic environment,” Ada emphasized.
