Learning skills for a meaningful learning: reflections in the context of professional education

Abstract

Learning skills for a meaningful learning: reflections in the context of professional education This study is characterized by a reflection on what competence means in the context of professional education and how a meaningful learning can be developed. For this reason, we performed a literature research that had, as main themes, competence and meaningful learning. The criterion for the choice of subjects is associated with the need to show how teaching practices can contribute to a practice that considers the objectivity and subjectivity of the process of teaching and learning. From our reflection, we highlight some possible interpretation of what will be competence in the educational process and the characterization of a process of teaching and learning that is meaningful allowing action and reaction in real situations.
