The Trabalho, Educação e Saúde - TES (Work, Education and Health) is an open access scientific journal, edited by the Joaquim Venâncio Polytechnic School of Health, from Oswaldo Cruz Foundation.
This qualitative study aimed to get to know the conception and experience of 27 Family Health Strategy workers on health education. The development of problematizing, as thought by Paulo Freire, facilitated participatory group work. Two of the categories were discussed in this survey: Educational practices and their enigmas; and (re)signifying educational practices. The subjects that were brought up were encoded, decoded and critically unveiled, and the difficulties, possibilities and expectations of the educational action expressed. The results revealed the subjects' difficulties in different aspects of the educational act in their practices and how strong the remnants of a bank, preventive, and medicalized practice are. The reflection coming from this touched them, showing potential for the development of transformative educational practices and the need for continuing education in order to expand their dia-logical skills.
