A extensão na formação de profissionais de história

Abstract

When the subject is third level teaching of history, the question that most assiduously appears not just at the prescriptive levels, such as in course policy and pedagogic projects, but also in the research field, such as talks given in round tables or the presentation of works, is the relationship between teaching and research. Even better, training for teaching or training for research, which leads to other discussions: relations between licentiate and bachelor degrees, AbstractIn this article, we discuss the training of professionals in history and the role expected from history courses at present by looking at activities that are designed to go beyond university walls -in other words extension activities. As a case study we use the academic, scientific and cultural activities required in licentiate courses in accordance with CNE/CP Resolution 01/2002, taking as a example the specific case of the history course of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Natal campus. To support our ideas, we look at the making of curricula and the determining of activities from the perspective of curriculum studies. After this we reflect on how our views are transposed to the manner we organize extension activities in undergraduate courses.
