The proposal of hybrid teaching from Parecer CNE/CP 14/22 and the precariousness of teacher training

Abstract

The object of study of this text is the Parecer 14/22, an assent issued by the National Council of Education that establishes guidelines for the implementation of blended learning in Brazilian Higher Education. The research aimed to verify the notion of hybrid teaching proposed implicitly by the opinion, to make explicit its social, cultural, and ideological connections and predict the impacts of this alignment on pedagogical work. Through a critical document analysis supported by critical discourse analysis procedures, it questions the notion of blended learning built into the document, revealing its links to the flexible accumulation’s educational discourse. The paper points out elements in the textual construction and shows that the flexibility of teaching spaces and times operated by digital information and communication technologies mediation, as proposed in the document, would favor the implementation of a pedagogy of competencies aligned with hegemonic ideological perspectives. It also evidences that the articulation between these factors would lead to the impairment and precariousness of teacher training, impacting the guarantee of the right to education and perpetuating inequality and exclusion of the working class. Thus, the text concludes that there is an urgent need for education workers to lead the debate on the use of contemporary technologies in teaching, considering work as an educational principle and maintaining the centrality of the proposals in the teacher-student pedagogical relationship.
