- Male Teachers in Elementary Education in the Public Schools of Rio de Janeiro-Brazil and Aveiro-Portugal Amanda Oliveira Rabelo Educación Gender Teacher training Professional choice This paper presents a comparative study of male teachers who work in public, elementary-level education in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and in Aveiro, Portugal. We intended, fundamentally, to research the reasons and consequences of the professional choice of teachers who are engaged in an area typically associated with women –an association so strong that these teachers seem like a “foreign body” in the daily lives of public elementary schools. We show that the presence of male teachers in elementary education is a way of bringing gender issues to the forefront of education, and that there are other issues and other voices that echo in schools, namely, individuals who are capable of exercising this profession regardless of gender. 2016 artículo científico 1607-4041 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=15547471010 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=155 REDIE.
