Abstract

This study discusses the possibilities offered in the courses attended by undergraduate students of Biological Sciences within the context of a project linked to the Novos Talentos Program. The data are composed of advertising leaflets, syllabi, and end-of-course papers elaborated by those undergraduate students. The concepts of formative experience proposed by Theodor Adorno and transformative intellectuals by Henry Giroux are used as theoretical background. The assessments show the challenge of the formative experience construct as a founding and unifying element of formative proposals, so that the existing relationships between experiences, critical meanings, and education of future teachers as intellectuals can be stressed.
