Echando la vista atrás: la voz del profesorado de educación física sobre su trayectoria profesional en una escuela multicultural

Abstract

Aquest treball s'endinsa en un conjunt d'escoles amb més del 50 % d'alumnat d'origen estranger per conèixer la manera en què el professorat d'educació física, amb més de 5 anys d'experiència, percep l'evolució i el transcurs de la seva trajectòria professional en aquest context (percepcions, sentiments, actuacions, etc.). Des d'una perspectiva qualitativa, s'ha dut a terme un estudi de casos múltiple (n = 12) a la província de Barcelona. Les entrevistes semiestructurades i les observacions no participants han estat els instruments utilitzats per a l'obtenció de resultats, i per a la seva interpretació, s'ha recorregut a l'anàlisi de contingut. Entre les conclusions més rellevants cal destacar que, malgrat totes les dificultats amb què s'ha trobat el professorat participant al llarg de tota la seva trajectòria laboral, la majoria d'aquest col•lectiu posseeix una percepció bastant positiva sobre el seu estat emocional i la seva feina professional en una escola multicultural, desmitificant-se així la tradicional imatge social d'aquesta escola com a problemàtica i conflictiva per a l'alumnat i el professorat.

Appropriate Self-Perceived Behaviors in Primary Education Pupils During Sports Games

“…The development of an adequate behavior of the game demands a more considerable educational effort, which needs constant work. Educating by transmitting values and skills appropriate to games and sports is part of the responsibility of schools, teachers, parents, and so on (Planchuelo, 2008;Flores-Aguilar et al, 2015). In this sense, it is necessary to highlight current research having as a goal the validation of questionnaires on the achievement and self-determination intentions, for example, the research carried out by Méndez et al (2016).…”

The Perspective of Physical Education Teachers in Spain Regarding Barriers to the Practice of Physical Activity among Immigrant Children and Adolescents: A Qualitative Study

“…In addition, the International Federation of Physical Education [ 47 ] establishes that PE must be a means of combating discrimination and social exclusion. Previous studies [ 48 ] show how certain communities may have a more isolated character and less interaction with other communities. Acculturation or assimilation of the host culture of immigrant families is related to the integration of children into society and can be a factor in the acquisition of habits, such as the practice of PA [ 49 , 50 ] Gerber et al [ 49 ] point out that the higher the degree of acculturation of people in a new society, or the longer the stay in the country, the greater the possibilities of practicing PA.…”

“…However, it should be emphasized that cultural components and/or beliefs can condition PA, particularly in the case of women. This may lead to the existence of a cultural conception of motor activity or motor development in children that is different from that of girls and boys [ 48 , 62 ]. Previous studies [ 18 , 63 ] describe how immigrant girls present a lower level of physical condition and less motor skills when it comes to collective activities, which may result in inhibition and self-exclusion from the sports space.…”

“…In Spain, Martínez Baena et al [ 66 ] describe how in students over 13 years of age, 23.1% of the girls practiced PA through obligation, whereas 15.7% acknowledged that they did not practice PA out of laziness. In addition, Flores [ 48 ], in a study on multicultural reality and PE teachers, described how immigrant girls claimed to have very little interest and passivity towards the subject of PE.…”
