Atletismo no contexto do ensino médio em tempo integral

Abstract

Composed of events involving running, jumping and throwing, Athletics is considered the base sport for other sports and can be developed in different contexts, including the school environment. Full-time high school units, established by Provisional Measure (MP) 746, of September 22, 2016, converted into Law 13,415, of February 16, 2017, present themselves as a favorable environment for the implementation of a school curriculum that is more adaptable to the reality of students and local specificities, such factors favoring the development of the Athletics modality in schools. Thus, the general objective of the research is to map how the sport of athletics has been worked on in state schools that offer only full-time high school in the city of Palmas - Tocantins. This is a descriptive qualitative research, of the multiple case study type, carried out with Physical Education teachers from the CMTO Senador Antônio Luiz Maya and Escola Estadual Professora Elizângela Glória Cardoso full-time high schools. The analysis of the results showed that Athletics is included in school Physical Education classes and in sports training as an extracurricular activity, but teachers have difficulty adapting the physical space to better develop pedagogical approaches to the sport, as well as facing problems related to the lack of teacher qualifications in the sport in question, the lack of sports equipment and the lack of interest of students in the sport. It is expected that the research and the educational resource generated called Focus on Athletics: pedagogical practices for high school in full-time schools can support the teaching work of Athletics in schools
