A questão da formação de professores de Educação Física e a concepção de professor enquanto intelectual – reflexivo – transformador

Abstract

The main idea of this article is to discuss the Physical Education teachers’ formation from a teacher’ s conception as an intelectual – reflective – transformer. First I will try to discuss the current model of the Physical Education teachers’ formation and to approach the importance of the pratice as a teacher’s instrument of analysis and reflection as an alternative to the dominant paradigm of the technic rationality. Second, I will discuss the necessity of construction of a new conception of the teacher’s pratice which selects the reflective dimension as an essencial component of the teacher’s pratice. And finally, I will present the teacher’s social function as a transformer intelectual inside the school and the university.
