Learning To Teach: Continued Training Of Physical Education Teachers In Developmental Didactics

Abstract

This article presents a synthesis of a study that investigated the learning of physical education teachers in continuing education. Based on the Historical-Cultural Theory and the Theory of Developmental Teaching, the objective was to identify and analyze the contributions of continuing education guided by Developmental Didactics to the learning and development of physical education teachers. Methodologically, the research is empirical, of a qualitative nature, and was carried out through a didactic formative experiment with physical education teachers from the Rede Estadual de Educação in Goiás, in Anápolis city. The analysis of the results, in the context of contradiction between work and training, highlighted the importance and contributions of Developmental Didactics, as well as the general mode of action of the praxis of self for theoretical thinking and, finally, of dialectical teaching knowledge for the development of conscious body movement of their students.
