Esta pesquisa descritiva analisa os desdobramentos da implementação curricular do circo como componente curricular na formação inicial em Educação Física em duas instituições de ensino superior do Estado de São Paulo/Brasil. Para tanto, foram realizadas entrevistas narrativas com docentes, gestores e alunos, totalizando 13 participantes. Concebendo o currículo como território de disputas e relações de poder, identificou-se que a intensa participação dos docentes e discentes nas ações de ensino, pesquisa e extensão tem conferido visibilidade ao circo para a produção de novos conhecimentos. Destaca-se também o relevante papel assumido pelos grupos de estudo e pesquisa atuantes nestas instituições, fomentando que muitos alunos egressos, hoje professores, incorporassem esses conhecimentos na escola básica, em projetos sociais, entre outros contextos de atuação profissional, alguns deles compondo, inclusive, grupos com enfoque artístico. Todavia, os exemplos investigados parecem não constituir maioria na realidade nacional, algo que pode vir a ser mapeado por outras investigações.Palavras-chave: Currículo; Ensino Superior; Educação Física; Circo ABSTRACTThis descriptive research examines the ramifications of curriculum implementation of the circus as a component in the initial training in Physical Education in institutions of higher education of the State of São Paulo/Brazil. Narrative interviews to teachers, administrators and students were made to a total of 13 participants. Viewing the curriculum as a territory of disputes and power relations, the intense participation of teachers and students in teaching, research and extension has given visibility to the circus in the production of new knowledge. The study highlights the important role assumed by study and research groups that are active in these institutions, encouraging many students graduating today, as well as teachers, to incorporate this knowledge in elementary school, in social projects, among other professional contexts, some of them including groups with an artistic focus.

Although teachers’ and students’ ICT skills have previously been investigated, there is still scant information about their ICT skills in relation to audio media as an independent medium of in- struction. This study, therefore, investigates the ICT skills of higher education distance students (HEDS) and teachers regarding the use of audio media. We used purposive sampling technique to select HEDS (n=81) and teachers (n=41). Data were collected using a structured questionnaire. The results indicate that on average, teachers’ and students’ levels of confidence regarding com- puter use are 76% and 68% respectively. The results on general ICT knowledge indicate that 52% of students rated themselves as having either good or excellent ICT skills compared to 49% of teachers. The results also show that both students and teachers use MP3 players on a regular basis. However, results reveal that they are ambivalent regarding recording and editing of audio content. Generally, the findings of this study demonstrate that teachers and students can adopt audio media in distance education. Key words: audio media, ICT skills, distance education, medium of instruction, Moodle platform
