ABSTRACT: This study is a
theoretical synthesis of researches performed in the scholar context aiming to
present an active teaching and learning proposal that sees teaching approach as
the dialectical unity in concepts of internalization movement. The actions are
organized by the professor and carried out by the subjects who are actively
involved in the educational process. The field research is based on the
assumptions of dialectical and historical materialism, historical and cultural
psychology and the action-research. In the theoretical field, the study shows
the theoretical and methodological principles of the pedagogical activity and
characterizes the triggering situation, the ways of action in the study community, and the
means of learning control as the structure of the activity in common
existing in the teaching-learning relationship. The results show the teaching
organization based on school reality which aims, through the processes of
questioning reality and mediating historically elaborated knowledge, to lead
the subjects involved in pedagogical activities to the comprehension of what is
real and to the development of human potential.
