Demandas ambientais na educação física escolar: perspectivas de adaptação e de transformação

Abstract

This investigation addresses the possibility of teaching themes related to environmental issues in Physical Education. We identified and classified such issues as: administrative and economic, aesthetic and philosophical, virtual, historical and geographical, sociological and political, physical and natural. Then, we discussed how the specific dynamics of culture, movement, and environment raises certain questions about each theme's relevance and its repercussions on teachers' professionalism. We believe that in the context of the daily intervention there are perspectives for both adaptation and transformation that might be further developed during classes in collaboration with the students.
