Physical education and the process of schooling: an analysis in the student perspective

It aims at understanding the relationship that male and female students establish with knowledge in physical education classes. The theoretical and methodological assumption used was the autobiographical narrative. It has as collaborators thirteen students, four boys and nine girls, from a class of high school. Taking as reference the school logic, students have difficulty in considering the relationship they establish with the knowledge and learning in physical education. Moreover, the criticisms are not confined to this discipline, but extend to the school itself, which seems to have its teaching logic oblivious to the desires and educational needs of students.
