Abstract

We aim to analyze interactions and their formative implications in the scientific initiation of students at high school technical education, based on the understanding of subjects, advisors and students who experienced this process. For this purpose, we used surveys applied to advisors and students participating in scientific initiation projects, completed between 2015 and 2017, at the XXXXX, in the area of Agrarian Science. From the surveys, we selected some questions about the interactions of participants with each other and with texts, and the formative implications. We analyzed the data using a qualitative-interpretative approach, based on theoretical subsidies from different fields: socio-interactionists (Vigotski, 2007, 2009; Volóchinov, 2017), from the area of education (Demo, 2011a, 2011b, 2012; Lave & Wenger, 2008; Wenger, 1998) and studies on literacy (Barton et al., 2000; Street, 1984, 2000) and academic literacy (Lea & Street, 1998, 2014). In the responses to the surveys, both groups of participants stated that the students built significant interactions with their advisors, in meetings and in carrying out research activities, as well as with texts and other artifacts. This process, according to them, enabled the construction, by the students, of scientific knowledge, both of a technical/formal and political nature.

Keywords: scientific initiation; high school; formative mediation.
