The Impact

Introdução: Durante a carreira docente, diversos fatores influenciam o percurso profissional docente, dentre eles as preocupações docentes. Elas são organizadas em três dimensões: Consigo, Tarefa e Impacto da Tarefa, que acometem os professores em sua atuação pedagógica. Objetivo: Nesse sentido, a presente pesquisa teve como objetivo identificar as preocupações de professores de Educação Física que atuam na rede municipal de Cianorte-PR considerando as variáveis sociodemográficas. Métodos: Caracteriza-se como uma pesquisa descritiva exploratória. Para a coleta dos dados, na primeira fase da investigação, participaram 14 professores de Educação Física do município de Cianorte – Paraná, que responderam um questionário sociodemográfico e a Escala de Preocupações dos Professores. Na segunda fase, foi realizada uma entrevista semiestruturada com oito professores, relacionando as variáveis sóciodemográficas com as preocupações no âmbito de sua atuação docente. Para análise dos dados quantitativos utilizou-se da análise estatística indutiva, empregando o teste de Shapiro-Wilk, e o Teste Prova U de Mann Whitney para comparar as médias das dimensões de preocupações conforme as variáveis sociodemográficas. Para os dados qualitativos, utilizou-se a análise de conteúdo. Resultados: Os professores investigados são em sua maioria jovens e com pouco tempo de carreira docente. No entanto, apresentam menor preocupação com a dimensão Consigo e o maior índice se expressa na dimensão Impacto da Tarefa. Em relação à idade, os professores que possuem até 29 anos têm maior preocupação com a dimensão Tarefa, enquanto que os professores que possuem 30 anos ou mais concentram suas preocupações na dimensão Impacto da Tarefa. Destaca-se que foram identificadas, com relevância, outras preocupações docentes, a Estrutura Familiar/Contexto Social e Formação Docente, que não estão presentes na teoria das preocupações. Conclusão: As dimensões apresentadas por Fuller e Bown, acometem os professores analisados. Além disso, outras preocupações foram evidenciadas como: Estrutura Familiar/Contexto Social e Formação Docente.ABSTRACT. Sociodemographic profile and concerns of physical education teachers of Cianorte – Paraná. Background: During the teaching career, several factors influence the professional career of teachers, among them the teachers’ concerns. They are organized in three dimensions: Dimension for Self, Dimension Task e Dimension Impact of Task. Objective: In this sense, the present research had as objective to identify the concerns of Physical Education teachers working in the municipal network of Cianorte-PR considering the sociodemographic variables. Methods: It is characterized as an exploratory descriptive research. In order to collect the data, in the first phase of the investigation, 14 Physical Education teachers from the city of Cianorte - Paraná (Brazil) participated, who answered a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Teacher Concerns Scale. In the second phase, a semistructured interview was conducted with 8 teachers, associating the sociodemographic variables with the concerns of the teaching performance. For the analysis of the quantitative data, it was used the inductive statistical analysis using the Shapiro-Wilk test and the Mann Whitney Test U test to compare the averages of the dimensions of concerns according to sociodemographic variables. For the qualitative data, the content analysis was used. Results: The teachers investigated are mostly young and with little teaching career time. However, they are less concerned with the Dimension for Self and the higher level of concern expressed in the Dimension Impact of Task. Teachers who are up to age 29 are more concerned with task dimension, while teachers who are age 30 or older focus their concerns on the Impact of Task dimension. Other teacher concerns were identified with relevance, Family Structure/Social Context and Teacher Training, which are not present in the theory of concerns. Conclusion: The dimensions presented by Fuller and Bown affect the teachers analyzed. In addition, other concerns were highlighted as: Family Structure/Social Context and Teacher Training.

The Impact

This paper is developed from concern that, despite a number of developments and initiatives in physical education over recent years, there has been little change in the teaching of the subject. This has resulted in many young people being alienated from physical education and therefore physical activity. The paper focuses on how initial teacher training (ITT) contributes to this lack of change by focusing on the development of knowledge for teaching and the technical competence to deliver this. It then considers ways in which ITT could contribute to developing 'knowledgeable teachers' who are able to make change. The paper focuses on two aspects identified as relevant for trainee physical education teachers: socialization and knowledge for teaching. It recognizes that the issues are complex and that change is difficult. It also recognizes that ITT cannot change things by itself. However, it argues that by maintaining the status quo, the subject will not develop so that it is relevant to today's youngsters.

Do So

This article has as its goal to justify and analyze the thematic propositions of the XV Seminar of School Physical Education: teachers’ autonomy and responsibilities. To do so, the theme is historically contextualized from two phases: 1) The search for legitimacy in the academia and; 2) The search for approximating teachers and their teachings. In the first one, it is possible to affirm that the seminars organized by EEFEUSP, from their very beginning and throughout the following twenty years, have presented an academic position towards the specificities and the different forms of school knowledge related to the curriculum component Physical Education, aiming at contributing to a legitimacy of the Physical Education itself in the academia. In the second phase, the question is properly and profitably addressed so to justify the seminar’s time and social place, targeting the teaching and the building of different kinds of knowledge through it. In this last phase, it is noticed an increase in the number of participants and also in the number of presentations, showing that the path chosen with locus on the teaching was right. Finally, once the analysis of the editing of the XV Seminar of School Physical Education is finished, it is put in this essay the challenge to think and project seminars to the next decade.

The Impact

Despite a noticeable increase in health awareness of active participation in physical culture, the vast majority of society still does not see a dependency between health and physical activeness. Only a few consider the lack ofmovement as one of the most harmful factors. Many researches, both Polish and foreign, point to insufficient level of physical activeness among citizens of the European Union, also including Polish ones. The report was aimed atdetermining the level of declared physical activity of gymnasium and secondary education teachers from Bialski region. In addition, an attempt was made to assess the impact of such variables as sex and subject taught on the level of respondents’ physical activeness. There was applied a method of diagnostic survey using an IPAQ questionnaire (International Physical Activity Questionnaire) – short version, last 7 days. The research material consisted of 221 randomly selected gymnasium and secondary school teachers from Bialski region. Due to the subject taught, respondents were divided into two groups: physical education teachers (n=76) and teachers of other subjects (n=145). The largest percentage of groups surveyed consisted of people who had a sufficient level of physical activity, whilst the one third met the criteria of the high level. Only physical activeness of moderate nature significantly differentiated groups surveyed in favour of physical education teachers. Taking sex as a criterion of division of the population surveyed, among the women, a considerable differentiation appeared in the area of walking, whereas the male population did not show significant differences only in the area of intense activity.

INTRODUÇÃO: A produção e difusão do conhecimento científico sobre formação de professores tem sido alvo de constante atenção de pesquisadores no âmbito nacional e internacional, principalmente no que tange ao trabalho junto de alunos com algum tipo de deficiência. OBJETIVO: Identificar a produção de conhecimento bem como as contribuições do Grupo de Estudos e Pesquisa em Atividade Física Adaptada (Unigepafa) acerca da formação de professores para atuações com pessoas com algum tipo de deficiência. MÉTODOS: Realizou-se um relato de experiência. A distribuição da produção científica cujo foco foi Formação de Professores, revelou que das 88 produções (total), 34 (38,36%) foram com esta temática. RESULTADOS: Os resultados apontaram as seguintes principais fragilidades: 1) na formação inicial: a disciplina específica não contribuiu com a formação; a disciplina específica com insuficiência de experiências com pessoas com algum tipo de deficiência; ausência de interlocução da disciplina específica com demais disciplinas do curso; escassa oferta de projetos de extensão. 2) na formação continuada: professores relatam participar esporadicamente em cursos para este fim; outros não possuem cursos algum para este fim; professores apontam os motivos para não realizarem formação continuada com este fim: desinteresse, distância dos locais de oferta, disponibilidade, situação financeira. CONCLUSÃO: Evidenciamos que o Unigepafa apresentou um volume de produções significativas centradas na formação de professores ao longo de dez anos. Em suma, as pesquisas apontaram fragilidades no processo de formação inicial e continuada de professores de Educação Física, o que indica a necessidade de fomento e incentivos à pesquisa neste campo, de modo que a universidade seja o elo com a sociedade capaz de articular o conhecimento teórico com as praxis pedagógica em contextos reais, obtidos por meio de cursos de curta ou longa duração, rodas de conversa e eventos científicos. ABSTRACT. Knowledge production associated to the physical education teachers’ training to work with people with disabilities: contributions from Unigepafa. BACKGROUND: The production and dissemination of scientific knowledge on teacher training has been the subject of constant attention by researchers at the national and international levels, especially with regard to working with students with disabiliies. OBJECTIVE: To verify the production of knowledge as well as the contributions of the Group of Studies and Research in Adapted Physical Activity (Unigepafa) about the training of teachers process to work with people with disabilities. METHODS: The experience report method was performed. The distribution of scientific production, whose focus was Teacher Training, revealed that of the 88 productions (total), 34 (38.36%) were with this theme. RESULTS: The data collect showed the following main weaknesses: 1) in the initial training: the specific discipline did not contribute to the training; specific discipline with insufficient experiences with people with some type of disability; absence of interlocution of the specific discipline with other subjects of the course; little offer of extension projects. 2) in continuing education: teachers report sporadically participating in courses for this purpose; others have no courses for this purpose; teachers point out the reasons for not carrying out continuous training for this purpose: disinterest, distance from the places of supply, availability, financial situation. CONCLUSION: We conclued that the Unigepafa presented a significant volume of productions centered on teacher training along ten years. In short, the research pointed out weaknesses in the process of initial and continuing training of Physical Education teachers, which indicates the need to foster and encourage research in this field, so that the university is the link with society capable of articulating theoretical knowledge with pedagogical praxis in real contexts, obtained through short or long courses, conversation circles and scientific events.

Three Stages

The purpose of this study was to identify and assess the kinds of concerns expressed by experienced physical education teachers and to compare them to Fuller’s postulated developmental theory of teaching concerns. The study also sought to assess the applicability of the Teacher Concerns Questionnaire (TCQ) instrument in a physical education environment. Data were subjected to factor analysis, where it was found that, overall, the experienced teachers did follow Fuller’s three stages of development. Two distinct constellations were identified, as was a third, weaker constellation. This third factor corresponded to Fuller’s task scale and additional study is recommended to identify items more appropriate to an inservice physical education environment. The authors make recommendations for follow-up experiences in an inservice setting.

The Impact

The impact of a yearlong professional development intervention on physical education teachers’ psychosocial perceptions was investigated. Experienced mentor teachers (n = 15) were paired with inexperienced protégé teachers (n = 15) who helped them learn how to teach a health-related physical education curriculum (i.e., the Exemplary Physical Education Curriculum). Using the theory of planned behavior as the guiding theory, it was hypothesized that teachers would experience favorable increases in various psychological constructs (e.g., attitude) and variables reflecting the social culture of their schools (e.g., administrator’s perceptions) as compared with control teachers (n = 17). A variety of statistically significant main and interaction effects with mean scores in expected directions were found. In general, mentors and protégés developed a more positive view of their own psychological state (e.g., perceived behavioral control) and of the immediate school social environment (i.e., support from administrators and fellow teachers). The significant results, combined with meaningful effect sizes, supported the effectiveness of this intervention.

The Impact

This article discusses some of the results described in a recent observational case study that examined the impact of an in-service program on the curricula and teaching behaviors of two elementary physical education teachers. In the study, numerous factors were identified as enhancers and inhibitors to the implementation process, including the relationships between participating principals and the two teachers. This article describes these relationships and the perceptions of the two teachers as they progressed through the in-service program. It also discusses the teachers’ levels of use of the innovations. The results of the study revealed that both teachers were dramatically influenced by their perceptions of principals’ actions and attitudes but only one of them successfully adopted the innovations. Data for the study were obtained from four sources: observations, interviews, documents, and questionnaires. These data were collected during a 7-month period that included all preliminary and in-service planning sessions as well as five in-service sessions, and during 140 hours of observations at two school sites.

The Impact

The increase in teacher attrition has been substantial in U.S. public schools over the past three decades. The impact this trend has on student learning is pronounced, especially in high-poverty schools. Minimal research has focused on the resilient teachers who stay in these settings and the personal, professional, and biographical influences that guide that decision. This review of literature, guided by resilience theory, occupational socialization of physical education teachers, and research on poverty, attempts to demonstrate the importance of recruiting, training, and retaining resilient physical education teachers in high-poverty schools.
