Preocupações de Professores Supervisores de Estágio Curricular Supervisionado em Educação Física

Abstract

This quantitative study aims at analysing the pedagogical concerns of supervising teachers of the Supervised Internship in initial training in Physical Education. Twenty-seven teachers from public and private higher education institutions in Brazil participated in this study. For the data collection, the Pedagogical Concerns Scale of the Teacher was used, which evaluates the pedagogical concerns in the following dimensions: Self, Task and Impact. The results present an abundance of pedagogical concerns corresponding to the dimension of the impact of the teaching, being the main ones: to identify problems of learning of the students and to meet the needs of the different types of students. In the dimension of the teaching task, the most pointed concerns were the lack of a conscious policy of self-assessment and the lack of continuity in the annual planning of the discipline. Concerns about the personal aspect are not present among the highest pedagogical concerns of the trainee supervisors. It is concluded that the supervisors of internships concentrate their pedagogical concerns on the impact dimension of the teaching, necessitating in this way, the fomentation of strategies that improve their interventions and actions in the context of the supervised internship in the initial formation in Physical Education.
