Abstract

The article informs an excerpt of a master’s research entitled “Curriculum of the integrated technical courses of the IFRN: the relation with the pedagogical practices of the physical education teachers”, which aimed to understand how the curriculum of the Integrated Technical Courses of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Rio Grande do Norte is translated into the pedagogical practices of Physical Education teachers. The empirical study, which is a qualitative nature and descriptive in character, has sought to evaluate the study program of the Integrated Technical Courses of IFRN to mark how the pedagogical practice of Physical Education teachers is executed based on the program. The survey assumed the form of a case study, using data collection technique carried out with eight Physical Education teachers from IFRN. A qualitative data analysis was used to analyze and interpret the collected data. The results permitted to conclude that Physical Education teachers at IFRN follow the proposed curricular guidelines and the institution has resources that promote the execution of the guidelines. However, there are some factors that hinder their compliance, such as the lack of practical experience of some teachers and the non-valuation of the subject of Physical Education.
