These formative plots intertwine my teaching work in audiovisual in higher education, student learning in this context and some experiments that took place on the sets of the CooperAÇÃO - Amigos do Cinema system and in the workshops of the Correspondências multimedia project, promoted by Garapa. In this way, this investigation is guided by the question of how to articulate ethical and cultural knowledge with technical and professional skills in my teaching activities in the audiovisual field. In these terms, this research has become formative first and foremost for me, because as a teacher-researcher I am thinking about my teaching practice, reflecting on a series of concerns that I have experienced along the way. Through this research, I can see that my teaching action is marked by gender experiences that make me think about audiovisual training in higher education, articulating an ethic of cooperation with students' daily lives in order to stimulate knowledge that comes from lived experience, perception and experimentation with languages, formats and the production of audiovisual meanings.
