Produção de conhecimento em Educação Física no ensino médio: o impacto dos livros no “Chão da Escola”

Abstract

The Programa Nacional Biblioteca na Escola (PNBE) – National Library Program at the School – of the teacher is characterized by distributing books for the teachers of each school discipline, in all the institutions of Basic Education, enrolled in the school census. Noting an increase in the production of pedagogical books for Physical Education in High School in recent years, the objective of this study is to investigate with Physical Education teachers of this level of schooling the use of pedagogical books as support material for the preparation of their classes. The study has a qualitative and descriptive nature. To collect the data, we used three questionnaires that were applied to 15 teachers of Physical Education of the High School of the city of Franca - SP, as well as researching in the school libraries the books that are available to teachers and analyzed on the teacher's PNBE website, which books for Physical Education in High School were purchased. We find that less than half of the teachers use books for the preparation of their classes and that few teachers know the books available in the libraries of the schools they teach. These data demonstrate that teachers need to have more knowledge about the books present in schools, noting that they can be excellent helpers in preparing classes and gaining new knowledge.
