Aproximações entre Freire e Ausubel sobre aprendizagem significativa: implicações para a formação docente

Abstract

This article aims to propose a reflection on meaningful learning from the thought of Freire and Ausubel and their contributions to teacher education. The research is also outlined as an analysis of the differences and confluences between the two authors regarding the importance of the students' previous knowledge and knowledge based on a bibliographical research. In this analysis, we brought the reflection of what really is a significant learning contained in their vision. Throughout the work, the concept of this learning and its importance for teacher education was addressed, arguing that from Paulo Freire onwards there is a sense of profoundly humanizing and socializing learning.
