Gleanings Processes That Activate Folds to Think the Cinema in Teachers’ Education

Abstract

This paper proposes different flows of thought through folds that interweave philosophical concepts, experimentations of writing with frames retrieved from ‘Os Catadores e eu’ by Agnès Varda. The uneasiness generated by the filmic image intended to problematize ways of conceiving the education process in teaching. Some questionings were present in this path: How can the gleaning of affection-concerns along the encounter with the filmic images contribute for the deconstruction of cliches that we gather in relation to teaching? How can the experimentation with the cinema promote a continuous process in the creation of teaching? What conversations are possible when encounters with heterogeneous and apparently unlikely elements are explored in relation to teaching? Thus, the methodological strategy happened during an observation exercise accompanied by the gleaning of affection and grooves created by what was boiled within the writing process. Each fold presented was crossed by concern-questions that emerged of what was collected in the education experiences, philosophies of difference and the frames retrieved from the documentary, potentializing other meaning constructions in relation to the educational experience.
