Physical Education and Gymnastics

The present study aims at contributing for a diagnosis of the educational situation related to Physical Education as a curriculum component, in the state of Alagoas. We point out the detailed indicators related to the processes of initial and continued teachers' education and which may underpin the appropriate intervention of UFAL in the process of professional qualification offered in the Physical Education Graduate Course. The visiting periods in the micro-regions of the state of Alagoas are reported in this exploratory, transversal survey. The study brings data related to indicators from the municipalities of Maceio, Arapiraca, Palmeira dos Indios, Anadia e Uniao dos Palmares. 65 schools were visited in Maceio (50%), 29 in Arapiraca (100%), 26 in Uniao dos Palmares (65%), 13 in Palmeira dos Indios (53,5%), and 08 in Anadia (40%), in a total coverage of 141 schools. Inversally proportional to the quantity of schools is the number of teachers demonstrating the lack of physical education teachers in the state of Alagoas. Most of the teachers graduated from the Federal University of Alagoas, and most of them had only got a bachelor's degree. The most important subject matter in their teaching development process was Anatomy, as well as Methodology of Sports was.Teachers were concerned in conducting a previous class planning, taking into account the students' needs. Among the difficulties in the training process, teachers pointed out the gap between theory and practice. In assessing the graduating institution, teachers reported having had a good formation. Teachers also reported to be concerned in getting updated via habit of reading but refuse to take part in continued formation.
