POLÍTICAS PÚBLICAS DE FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORES DE EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA EM UMA CAPITAL DO CENTRO-OESTE

Abstract

The objective of the study was to investigate public policies in Physical Education and the training of teachers (sports and leisure social agents) at the Municipal Sports Foundation (Funesp) in Campo Grande – MS. This is research with a descriptive method, qualitative approach, organizer in three stages: the first was based on scientific production on the topic; in the second, a documentary analysis was carried out; in the third, semi-structured interviews were carried out with managers and teachers who work at Funesp. The analysis was inspired by the critical-dialectical theoretical framework and we used the content analysis technique in order to organize the data. To this end, three categories of analysis were created: 1) Initial Pre-training Period, corresponding to the experiences that contributed to the choice of the Physical Education course; 2) Initial Thaining Period, corresponds to the subjects experienced during graduation that are most used in professional practice, as well as whether there participation in teaching, research and/or extension projects during the academic period and how teaches evaluate the Education course Physical; 3) Continuing Training Period, corresponds to the continuing in-service training meetings offered by Funesp. However, it was observed that the teachers involved in the MCG policy, established in the city of Campo Grande – MS, mostly chose the Physical Education course influenced by sporting experiences outside the school environment. In their professional practices they use disciplines that are more specific to the modalities they teach directly, such as Pilates, Bodybuilding and Functional. Regarding continued in-service training, offered by Funesp, teachers point out that there should be more meetings throughout the year, with a pre-estabilished calendar, with more specific themes related to the workshop offered by the projects, in addition to understanding that the professionals involved themselves are able to minister and/or lead meetings, without necessarily depending on an external speaker.
