PRACTICE AS A CURRICULAR COMPONENT IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION TEACHERS’ EDUCATION

Abstract

This research looked into Practice as a Curricular Component (PCC) in the process of Physical Education teachers’ education. The investigation involved students and professors of the Physical Education School at a public university in the state of Paraná, Brazil, through semi-structured interviews. We carried out content analysis of records using NVivo 10 software. Students showed no knowledge of PCC, which did not happened in the teacher’s group, who are willing to organize it into the course despite acknowledging the gap in the curriculum for the absence of that component. The current curriculum has to be reorganized with a view to education interconnected with the social space of professional intervention so that teachers acknowledge this scenario according to their specifics and are aware of the relations established there during there work.
