THE SPORT EDUCATION EXPERIENCE IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION CLASSES: USING THE TEACHING MODEL IN A FUTSAL TEACHING UNIT

Abstract

This research seeks to discuss the educational possibilities of the use of the Sport Education teaching model in Physical Education classes at a Secondary Education public school. For this, we conducted an action research study - a cyclical process that resulted in integration of the model into a futsal teaching unit. From the proposal, we understand that the main advantage of using the teaching model is the improvement in students’ learning process. For teachers, Sport Education provides an overview of the teaching unit plan to be used. However, this demands permanent work from teachers, who sometimes need to develop activities outside of their weekly workload. Therefore, we understand that testing the experience in different environments is necessary to know other advantages and difficulties of working with that proposal.
