Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the perception of the teacher regarding the body of hospitalized children and to evaluate how he consider the body in his work. For the development of research, the theoretical framework is configured as follows: in the first section, I bring a study of the type “state of the art” about the hospital class in the last five years. The second section is devoted to theme of the hospital class to present its history and its legal aspects; the third section covers the body of discussions about the Cartesian paradigm, I make use of corporeality principles in order to resize the body mechanistic vision conceived by society. These principles become a possible way to hospital pedagogy. Data collection was performed in two hospitals, one in São Paulo state and another in Minas Gerais state. This study was configured as a qualitative, descriptive and used as data collection instrument, a structured interview and non-participant observation. The subjects who underwent the interview were four professors who teach classes in the hospital classes. For analysis of the interviews was used the Technique of Preparation and Analysis of Meaning Units, in which were made two generating questions the first being: "How do you see the body of his student of hospital class?" and the second "How do you work the body of his student in hospital class?". The first question was found that 75% of the subjects understand that the body of the student attends class hospital as fragile and submissive to clinical procedure and 50% deal with the care, respect and skills cognitive, referring to the second question. From the observation we found that teachers hospital class consider the body of the student guided by traditionalist model of teaching and learning, that is, focus on their professional performance is the transmission of content that prevails cognitive over the body of students attending hospital class.
