BAILEY-MORENO, Josefina  y  FLORES-FAHARA, Manuel. Training processes throughout teaching performance: a study from the beliefs of university professors. Propós. represent. [online]. 2020, vol.8, n.3, e490. ISSN 2307-7999.  http://dx.doi.org/10.20511/pyr2020.v8n3.490.

This study aims to know how the training processes of practicing teachers contribute to the construction of beliefs about teaching at the university. From a qualitative methodology with a grounded theory approach, professors from public and private universities were selected through theoretical sampling. In-depth interviews were conducted to collect data which were analytically coded. Among the results it was found that the teachers' beliefs come from institutional training of a normative type which emphasizes a functional teaching in didactic techniques, use of technology and innovation, excluding training in knowledge of the discipline they teach. Thus, it was also found that teachers carry out self-training processes on a personal initiative for updating scientific knowledge and develop their practices teaching with strategies that they themselves use to learn, because they believe in their own learning processes as a valuable source and credible to conduct teaching.
