Programa academia da saúde: análise do processo pedagógico de educação permanente desenvolvido na formação presencial aplicada no estado do Tocantins

Abstract

The global advance of capitalism in recent decades has triggered changes in the ways of life, work and food of the populations, reflecting changes in the patterns of illness, characterized by high morbidity and mortality from non-communicable chronic degenerative diseases (NCDs). In Brazil, the Health Academy Program represents one of the main strategies to face the advance of NCDs Thus, aiming at strengthening it, the Ministry of Health developed a face-to-face training based on the programmatic contents of the program's technical notebook and aimed at building technical skills related to program management, in partnership with the Federal University of Tocantins (UFT). Based on this context, the present research analyzed the pedagogical process developed in the face-to-face training applied in the state of Tocantins. It is a qualitative educational research, using an action research methodology. For data analysis, we used content analysis and document analysis techniques. The analysis of the construction process of the technical notebook revealed an awareness-raising and dialogical methodology with fundamental contributions to the enrichment and relevance of the program content covered in presential training. About the construction of the pedagogical process of classroom training, the findings showed a dialectical and dialogical movement on the part of the responsible educational team. Regarding the teaching-learning process, pedagogical trends were identified in line with the theoretical-methodological framework proposed by educator Paulo Freire, on which PNEPS-SUS is based.
