Abstract

The paper examines the usual separation between theory and practice using benchmarks of philosophy and focusing education, particularly the training of teachers. To examine this phenomenon, it suggests that theories are considered as paradigms, according Thomas Kuhn conceptions. Following this thought, it suggests that the debate among paradigms, as well the option for one or more theories as supporting pedagogical practice, involves intellectual and emotional factors. Still, it indicates the relevance of studies on the art of rhetoric, for that all participants of this debate meet the persuasion techniques that are submitted.
