Atuação docente em Educação Física: teorias e práticas em contextos escolares

Abstract

This specialization monograph aims to identify research trends on teaching performance in Physical Education published in the national PAC. To achieve the proposed objective, we elaborated the following research problem: "What are the research trends on teaching performance in school Physical Education produced and published in national PACs in the last 5 years?". This research is a Specialized Literature Review Study (ERLE), based on academic-scientific production published in Capes' national / Brazilian academic-scientific journals (PAC). This literature review study did not reach all academic-scientific publications on teaching performance in Physical Education, since we investigated a small part of the existing universe on the subject. The panorama made with this study of literature review showed a greater volume of publications on the analysis of teaching practice in general. The teaching of sports and discussions about sports in Physical Education also occupied a lot of space in this reasoning. Articles on evaluative practices, use of teaching resources, the relationship between school management and the performance of the Physical Education teacher, teaching knowledge, didactic-pedagogical planning and theoretical assumptions that serve as a basis for his performance in school Physical Education had, in turn, less prominence. Our study also identified that most of the studies on the teaching performance in Physical Education are focused on Elementary Education. There is a small number of articles that investigated the role of the Physical Education teacher in high school. Thus, we consider relevant new research on the constituent elements of the teaching performance in Physical Education in High School, since they can contribute to the consolidation of the importance of Physical Education also in High School. So, we believe that it is necessary to expand studies and publications on evaluative practices, use of didactic resources, school management, teaching knowledge, planning and theoretical assumptions that serve as the basis for the performance of the Physical Education teacher, also in High School. The expansion of this study can be done, for example, using as sources for collecting information theses and dissertations carried out on this subject. We understand that, although we have found a significant number of articles that seek to discuss what the Physical Education teacher does or does in school in his teaching activity, there are themes that should be better explored and studied.
