DIÁLOGOS SOBRE O ENSINO DOS ESPORTES: FORMAÇÃO CONTINUADA POR MEIO DA PESQUISA-AÇÃO

Abstract

This research focused on the consequences of a collaborative training experience in the conceptions and ways Physical Education teachers teach collective sports games. Action research was conducted with five teachers and included 26 study meetings of which 21 were theoretical and five were practical. The results show that it is possible to change the conceptions and the ways Physical Education teachers teach collective sports games. Educators working under the traditional model based on execution and repetition of motor gestures can change their understanding of the sports phenomenon. However, the project is long and hard, and it needs to be well grounded on theoretical foundations related to the tactical dimension, combining theoretical and practical study and being conducted by researchers with expertise on the topic.
