ISBARROLA, Jessica Almeida  and  COPETTI, Jaqueline. PERCEPTIONS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION TRAINEES ABOUT SUPERVISED PRACTICUM IN CHILDREN EDUCATION. Rev. Exitus [online]. 2018, vol.8, n.2, pp.189-218.  Epub May 29, 2019. ISSN 2237-9460.  https://doi.org/10.24065/2237-9460.2018v8n2id534.

Physical Education (PE) is compulsory in all phases of primary and secondary education; however, in Child Education (CE), PE lessons do not need to be taught by PE professionals. Even with this problem, the curriculum of licensure programs provides the recognition of the reality of teaching from the supervised curricular practicum (SCP). This study aimed to analyze the perceptions of PE trainees regarding the positive and negative experiences that they found in their SCP in CE through documentary and qualitative research. The documents used in this study were the final SCP reports in the CE of male and female students who succeeded in the exams in the first half of 2015 (8 reports), 2016 (9 reports) and 2017 (11 reports). This was the first school practicum that the trainees participated. Bardin`s Content Analysis was used in the analysis of the reports. In the analysis of the reports, 25 keywords were used from which four categories emerged. According to the frequency of each keyword, the most frequent ones were: Agitated (73); Student participation (156); and Class Control (37). The relationship of these keywords allows the conclusion that the experiences are classified as negative and positive, contributing to the academic and personal development of each trainee. Thus, it was concluded that the interaction between university and school encompasses benefits beyond the contribution to the academic development of the students, new knowledge and the development of all participants of the experiences of the school practicum.

Keywords : Physical Education; Early Childhood Education; Supervised practicum.
