ABSTRACT
O artigo objetiva contribuir com o desenvolvimento teórico e metodológico no campo do trabalho em Educação. Discute a situação dos professores com contratos de prestação de serviço temporário, destacando a importância de os docentes analisarem coletivamente os diferentes modos como empreendem sua atividade de trabalho na perspectiva da produção de autonomia e criação. Os recursos metodológicos propostos apoiam-se em conceitos e princípios preconizados na Ergologia e na Clínica da Atividade. Considera-se que o método é resultado de uma construção conjunta com aqueles que demandam a transformação das escolas em seu próprio fazer cotidiano, produzindo inflexões no que tenta paralisar e limitar a inventividade no trabalho. Nesse sentido, trata-se de atuar na contramão dos processos de precarização do trabalho, indagando o que está instituído: O que temos feito de nós mesmos, para onde desejamos ir, quais são nossas apostas ético-políticas?
The paper aims at contributing to the theoretical and methodological development in the education work field. It discusses the situation of teachers provided with temporary service contracts by highlighting the importance of teachers collectively analyze the different ways in which they undertake their labor activity from the perspective of production autonomy and creation. The proposed methodological sources rely on concepts and principles advocated in Ergology and Clinical Activity. It is proposed that the method is the result of a joint construction with those who demand the transformation of schools in their own daily tasks, producing inflections in trying to paralyze and limit the ingenuity at work. In this sense, it is acting against the precariousness process of work by asking what is instituted: What have we done of ourselves, where do we want to go, and what are our ethical and political stakes?

Objective: To identify the social representations of children in relation to the image of the dentist. Material and Methods: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study with quantitativequalitative approach. The sample consisted of 80 children of both sexes aged 7-10 years attended at a clinic-school of a university in eastern Minas Gerais, Brazil. For data collection, the Test of Free Words Association (TALP) was used, with the word "dentist" as its inducing theme. The four items included in the research instrument were: 1) evoke up to five words or expressions related to the dentist; 2) to order each of them numerically, with number one being the most important and number five being the least important; 3) to conceptualize the one elected as number one; and 4) to justify the reason for that choice. The EVOC software was used to carry out quantitative analyses and the Analysis of Content of Bardin for qualitative analyses. Results: The words that composed the central nucleus of social representations were "tooth", "pain", "brushing" and "treats". This grouping of ideas points to the following conceptual formulation: "The dentist is someone who 'brushes' and 'treats' teeth, but sometimes performs procedures that cause 'pain'. The categories abstracted from participants' discourse were "oral health", "personal characteristics of the dentist" and "child-dentist interaction". Conclusion: Children presented predominantly positive image regarding the dentist.
