Mulher e esporte no brasil: entre incentivos e interdições elas fazem história

Abstract: This text aims at giving evidence that women's participation in Brazilian sports, despite a substantial increase in the last decades, deserves to be analyzed with caution. It implies in affirming that the conditions for access and participation in sports and body practices, be it in performance sports, leisure, or school physical education are not equal between men and women in terms of the visibility given by the media, the value of prizes awarded to the winners in sports competitions, among other issues. In other words, along the history of sports in Brazil there have been differences among the incentives, the sponsorships, the visibility, the opportunities and the power relations conferred to men and women, be it in terms of participation or in sports management. KEY WORDS: women and sports – body and sports practices participation in physical activities – school physical education.

O conteúdo "dança" em aulas de educação física: temos o que ensinar?

Abstract: We have analyzed dance as a content in School Physical Education Classes. We understand that there is a lack of discussion on dance as a content to be approached in the school environment. We recognize its presence at school, either via Physical Education classes or via Art Education classes. Its presence, however, occurs out of the context of the discussion about cultural selection, undertaken by the school syllabi. This study is part of the dissertation “Knowledge in the school syllabi: the content dance in physical education classes on an analytical perspective”. KEY WORDS: Dance - Physical Education - Pedagogical practice.

Existe espaço para o ensino de educação física na escola básica

Abstract: This work has the objective to show some perspectives for a new dimension of Physical Education inside school instituition. Also try to put in evidence the absence of new horizons for the present model in use at school. On the other side, it points out some possibilities to revert this situation not too much promising, when it impute to Physical Education the organization, systematization, and decodefication of men and women corporal practices, beyond cinestesic limits. There is in the corporability its own possibility of comprehension and explicity of cultural dynamics, considering Physical Education teacher as the intelectual responsible for this work as far as corporal practices are concerned. KEY WORDS: physical education; professional training in physical education; public politics in physical education.

Atividade física e saúde: discurso que controlam o corpo

Abstract: In the 19th Century, physical education built the healthy body for military and industrial aims, based on the discourses of physical activity and health. Currently, media, technology and science disseminate such discourses for other objectives. This study aims at broadening the boundaries of such discourses, from the starting point of media and biotechnology, in order to reflect upon the work of the physical education professional, avoiding a non-critical, generalizing intervention, such as the discourse that “physical activity is health”. Contemporary lifestyles seem to lead to heart problems, obesity, depression, and stress. Again, physical activity is advertised as the cure. At the same time, the mass media use this context by turning the body into a consumer product, and by turning health into a synonym for beauty. KEY-WORDS: body - health - physical activity - mass media.

This approach indicates some principles, contents, and strategies for action that might contribute to the process of human education in a critical way, in an attempt to point towards a new perspective for the teaching, the practice, and the knowledge of Gymnastics. KEY-WORDS: gymnastics methodology – human education – body language.

Habitus profissional, currículo oculto e cultura docente : perspectivas para a análise da prática pedagógica dos professores de educação física

Abstract: This paper intends to articulate the concepts of professional habitus, hidden syllabus, and teacher culture as instruments for the analysis of pedagogical practices among physical education teachers. By conceiving pedagogical practice as a product of a context and of a professional habitus, this text discusses the production of a hidden syllabus that originates from teacher practices, considering that such a hidden syllabus can be the result of interpersonal relationships, school regulations and of the contents of a school subject or syllabus component. This paper also shows how the phenomenon of intensification reinforces teacher routines and hinders reflection derived from practice. KEYWORDS: pedagogical practice – professional habitus – hidden syllabus

A construção de identidade e papéis de gênero na infância: articulando temas para pensar o trabalho pedagógico da educação física infantil

Abstract: This study investigated gender relations in children from 4 to 5 years old who go to infant education groups in the public schools of Florianopolis. The main aim was to understand how children build indentities and gender roles in the relations they establish with their peers and with adults who are closer to them in these educational spaces. We base our studies in Scott (1995) and Louro (1997) on the definitions of gender relations and we borrow the idea of gender identity from Grossi (1998) and Stoller (1993) . We start from the idea that the interactions established by children are part of a number of objective and subjective experiences that create their identities, as well as their social gender roles. This investigation, of the ethnographic type, based on Geertz (1989) and Fonseca (2000) showed that even among very young children gender roles are very close to the roles lived by adults who live in the same cultural contexts and that gender identities are experienced at different stages of interaction between these children. KEY WORDS: Gender relations - Physical Education - Infant education.

“alinhamento astral”: o estágio docente na formação do licenciado em educação física na esef/ufrgs

Abstract: This study analyses the lecturing stage in the teaching education process of licentiates in Physical Education at Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. Based on qualitative research of the case study type, this work aimed at understanding the way through which trainees articulated the “theory” learned in the pedagogic subjects with their teaching “practice” at school. The metaphor of “Astral Alignment”, used by our collaborator to refer to the syllabus organization of the course, allowed us to perceive that the criticism of the group fell on the predominance of a didactic practice which was centered in the “education of seated bodies” as opposed to a didactic practice centered in the “bodies in movement”. KEYWORDS: professional education – lecturing stage – teaching practice

Arte circense: a magia e o encantamento dentro e fora das lonas

Abstract: This text is part of a master’s dissertation which investigates circus knowledge incorporated and shared by the Circo Girassol circus in Porto Alegre, RS, Brazil. Considering the body from cultural and historical references, one can observe movement in the circus arts to be resignified at each moment. From the body practices of the saltimbancs, triggering laughter and freedom, to the art of the contemporary circus adapted to the artistic performance market of this time, the body becomes one of the main products of the Culture Industry. This article also presents an educational proposal to enable the practice of body movement culture to be developed in cooperation, solidarity, and interdisciplinarity, turning the “let’s play circus” act into a playful pedagogical act focused at the “production” of pleasure. KEYWORDS: circus art – body – pedagogical practices – playfulness

Ritual olímpico e os mitos da modernidade: implicações midiáticas na dialética universal/local

Abstract: Este artigo pretende discutir os Jogos Olimpicos de Atenas como um ritual que organiza e estrutura as narrativas miticas que constroem a modernidade.

Introdução à avaliação na educação física escolar

Abstract: The present article has as objective to reflect the political-pedagogical bases that have sustained the evaluation practice in Education and Physical Education School Teaching. At this context it analyses the educator and school postures at this tipe of avaluative practice from the after – marxism perspectives.

O balé clássico e a dança contemporânea na formação humana: caminhos para a emancipação

Abstract: This article aims at analizing, from the starting point of a case study comparing Classic Ballet and Contemporary Dance, how dance can relate to human development, within the context of a capitalist-dominated society. We have observed that contemporary dance offers many enriching forms of work, with great openness for the perceptive and creative growth of a human being. The analyzed group, however, presented a few contradictions in regards to the contents and methodology that were used to achieve their goals. Lettin go of the old conceptions in the teaching of dance, wich are very much reaffirmed in classic ballet, is hard to achieve. It is, however, absolutely necessary, if we are to adopt a new approach, based on freedom and respect for human individuality. Classic ballet searches for the appropriate, institutionalized technique, which brings in itself codes and meanings that reflect an authoritative and hierarchical society. Its work is based on reproduction and repetition in order to achieve technically perfect movements. I believe that the possibility of creation, intervention and questionings within the teaching environment are fundamental to the upbringing of a human being who understands him/herself as the creator, the author of his/her own actions within society. KEY WORDS: Dance - Human development - Classic ballet - Contemporary dance.

O processo de esportivização do taekwondo

Abstract: O Taekwondo e uma arte marcial milenar nascida e desenvolvida em estreita relacao com a historia da Coreia do Sul. O processo de esportivizacao dessa arte inicia-se em 1964, periodo em que se expande pelo mundo, ganhando o territorio brasileiro. Atualmente, faz parte do quadro de modalidades olimpicas. Entretanto – entendendo as lutas (inclusive o Taekwondo) como parte da cultura corporal produzida pelo homem e, como tal, um conhecimento que precisa ser acessado pelas pessoas em sua historia, analisando condicoes, tensoes e interesses que orientaram o seu processo de esportivizacao, a fim de colaborar para a redefinicao dos elementos que deverao compor o universo de saberes, sentidos e significados relacionados ao Taekwondo em nossa realidade atual, sobretudo quando pensamos no contexto educacional –, procuramos sistematizar o conteudo historico dessa arte marcial, no sentido de facilitar o acesso a esse conhecimento. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: arte marcial – esporte – taekwondo.

Ampliando o campo de intervenção da educação física escolar a partir da análise da escada da aptidão para toda a vida

Abstract: Este artigo objetiva analisar o modelo da Escada da Aptidao para Toda a Vida (EATV) a luz do ideario da Promocao da Saude (PS) e da Cultura Corporal do Movimento (CCM), no sentido de ampliar a proposta de Educacao Fisica Escolar (EFE). Primeiramente, constatamos que a EATV enfatiza a aquisicao de saude via aptidao fisica; ignora aspectos socio-politicos e economicos da saude; nao supera a relacao causal entre exercicio e saude; e fragmenta os seus conteudos. Num segundo momento, sugerimos um redirecionamento da EATV atraves da exposicao de uma Proposta Tematica para a EFE, que pressupoe a transmissao de outros conteudos, visando a formacao de um aluno critico no que concerne ao consumo da CCM. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: educacao fisica escolar – promocao da saude – cultura corporal do movimento.

A aventura e o lazer como coadjuvantes do processo de educação ambiental

Abstract: Nature has constantly become the focus of interest to many people who go to it due to their need of interaction, for various reasons. In this sense, one tries to broaden the understanding of the universe related to factors which are linked to the consumption of nature and to the awereness of the need for implementation of an environmental education program. This type of education is necessary, as one considers the growing demand for adventure tourism and outdoor physical practices in the scope of leisure. To achieve this understanding, we have undertaken a bibliographic research on the existing studies on the matter, with the aim of pointing to possible contributions to the understanding of this research theme and to stimulate significant interventions in the related fields. KEYWORDS: nature – education – leisure
