Gênero, sexualidade e formação docente em Educação Física: uma análise da produção acadêmica da FEFD/UFG

Abstract

This study objective identifies the number of monographs that discuss gender and sexuality in the Licentiate and Bachelor's degrees in Physical Education, at the Faculty of Physical Education and Dance of the Federal University of Goiás (FEFD/UFG), between 1994 and 2021, in order to map which themes were studied and in which contexts. It also aims to raise and analyze the works that deal with gender and sexuality in Physical Education classes at School, in order to identify the amount of production on each theme; who wrote it and about what; the demands that justified the study and its purposes. For this, descriptive and documentary research was used to carry out the mapping, stipulating as analysis criteria the demands that led the undergraduate student to discuss these themes in the monograph, the objectives and the results found. In all, 1493 works produced at FEFD/UFG were found during this period, but only 31 (thirty-one) dealt with issues of gender and sexuality. The information collected was systematized and divided into sub-themes that appeared the most in the productions, which were: School Physical Education (10), Sports (8), Training (6), Fights (4) and Body Practices (2). During the survey, 10 (ten) monographs were found that discussed gender and sexuality in School Physical Education classes, with the main discussion being the importance of discussing gender and sexuality during the initial and continuing education of the teacher. It was identified that the lack of discussion on gender and sexuality issues in the teacher training process (initial and continuing), impacts on the lack of identification, understanding and mediation of these issues in pedagogical practice, reverberating in silencing and, sometimes, in sexist and discriminatory practices, (re)producing the prevailing heteropatriarchal and sexist logic.
