Viabilidade do planeamento por etapas: visão dos estudantes-estagiários

Abstract

Planning is a part of teaching-learning processes influencing its effectiveness. The accomplishment of this task is often difficult by the innumerable variants that the practical context of teaching presents. For this reason, it undergoes through several changes during its application. The model of physical education planning recommended in Portugal and defined by the PNEF (guiding document), is the step-by-step planning. This planning model structures the learning throughout the year, in logic of progression and monitoring the student’s development. There is no evidence to support this type of planning to be more effective compared to any other. As an indispensable tool for the teacher, it is important to find out if this type of planning is feasible, meeting the objectives that it proposes. Therefore, the purpose of this document was to investigate the perception of pre-service teachers about the viability of the step-by-step planning in the teaching process of physical education. As a method of data collection, a focus group was formed constituted by four pre-service teachers. The pre-service teachers concluded that this planning model is viable, admitting that its feasibility is dependent on certain factors.
