Many researchers and theoretical scholars have questioned the social-transformative claims of critical pedagogy (CP) in physical education. Most of these criticisms center on its application in physical education teacher education (PETE). Our knowledge of the perspectives and practices of physical education teacher educators (PETEs) who claim to practice CP, however, is still tentative at best; consequently, the reason for its limited success are still largely unknown. To shed some light on this issue, 17 PETEs who claimed to practice critical pedagogy were interviewed at length regarding their definition of CP, including its principles and purposes, and their pedagogical practices. The results show that more than half of the PETEs did not fully understand the main principles and purposes of CP as presented in the literature, and that many of their methods were incongruent with these principles and purposes. This lack of understanding of CP might be an important factor contributing to its limited success in PETE. In view of this, caution and critical reflection are recommended when engaging in this type of pedagogy. Some implications for PETE are provided as well.

A formação profissional contínua na Educação Física Escolar tem um papel essencial face à perspectiva inclusiva no sentido de subsidiar o professor para o desenvolvimento de atitudes positivas. Assim, o objetivo do presente estudo foi analisar a eficácia de um programa formativo nos níveis de Percepção da Competência e da Qualidade da Experiência de 29 licenciados em Educação Física, em processo de formação contínua, estudantes do 1º ano do curso de Mestrado em Ensino da Educação Física nos Ciclos Básico e Secundário da Faculdade de Ciências do Desporto e Educação Física da Universidade de Coimbra, Portugal. Aplicou-se a Escala de Autoeficácia na Educação Física Inclusiva, sendo a versão portuguesa do questionário Self-Efficacy Scale for Physical Education Teacher Education Majors towards Children with Disabilities em dois momentos distintos, antes e após a realização de uma ação formativa. Os resultados apontam que os participantes demonstram níveis elevados tanto para a Percepção da Competência quanto da Qualidade da Experiência após a realização da ação formativa. Conclui-se que as ações de formação contínua na perspectiva inclusiva são, portanto um importante caminho a ser trilhado a fim de capacitar o professor para o atendimento à diversa demanda escolar em contexto inclusivo.   Recebido em: 19/12/2019Reformulado em: 20/12/2019Aceito em: 20/12/2019

The physical education teacher education (PETE) faculty charged with oversight and delivery of initial teacher licensure programs confront several challenges. Some necessitate responses to revised and new standards, while others can be reframed as timely opportunities for improvement and innovation, whether in response to or in anticipation of rapid, dramatic societal change. Six examples of challenges as opportunities are discussed in this chapter: (a) the need to determine the skills, essential knowledge, values, and sensitivities for work practices in the schools of the future; (b) the dual priority for evidence-based practices in PETE and in school programs; (c) PETE faculty members’ obligations to adapt their pedagogical practices and revise preservice programs in concert with expert, veteran teachers from schools with exemplary programs; (d) manifest needs to make choices among competing, evidence-supported physical education program models; (e) needs and opportunities to redesign PETE programs, especially those located in kinesiology departments; and (f) emergent policy imperatives to demonstrate the value-added effects, both short- and long-term, on tomorrow’s teachers.

Abstract Our research focuses on describing what is really happening when a teacher wants to transmit to pupils - girls and boys - knowledge socially marked as masculine. To describe the processes involved in effective didactic interactions between a teacher a pupil and knowledge, we opted for qualitative methodology, consisting on a close observation of the didactic interactions of a teacher with his pupils (girls and boys). Analysis of the interviews focused especially on the nature of knowledge actually transmitted for girls and boys. The studied video sequences permitted to study the didactic interactions more precisely as are actually happening on the pitch. Both tools allowed us to identify the educational intentions of teachers (specialist or not); women or men in the teaching of football. The results show that teachers’ conceptions influence implicitly or explicitly the modalities of their interventions and the nature of football knowledge transmitted to pupils. This makes us think that the impact of social facts (backgrounds) on Tunisian teachers is great. This phenomenon may lock the physical education teacher in some representations modeling masculine and feminine stereotypes and affect his didactic and teaching contribution. Therefore, the teacher must be aware of the impact of the connotation that may have certain “masculine” practices on his interventions and consequently over the pupils learning (either boys or girls).
