Abstract

This article analyzes the professional learning of two early childhood education teachers during their training to teach Statistics. The training occurred remotely due to the COVID-19 pandemic and was provided by the Early Childhood Education Coordination of the municipality of Itabuna, Bahia, Brazil, representing the University-School Leadership (USL), in partnership with Rede Educação Matemática Nordeste (Northeast Mathematics Education Network). Teaching sequences were prepared based on the investigative methodology PPDAC (Problem, Plan, Data, Analysis and Conclusion). Two teachers were interviewed and the transcripts of these interviews were analyzed using the Discourse Textual Analysis methodology. Results showed the following three dimensions of professional teaching development: specific knowledge, professional learning and changes in practice. Moreover, professional learning refers to reviewing practices for teaching statistical concepts, reflecting on the professional practice, collectively built collaboration, teacher engagement and commitment and USL efforts to develop professional learning training strategies.
