- Formação de professores de educação física para a inclusão: representações de professores universitáriosPublication . Celestino, Tadeu; Pereira, Antonino; Ribeiro, Esperança JalesThe diversity, complexity and intensity of current social situations demand from the school, and particularly from the teachers, assertive and diversified responses. Nevertheless, there is some scientific unanimity regarding the existence of various constraints, felt and reported by physical education teachers (PE) regarding their competence to implement inclusive processes in their classes. Given the above, it is increasingly pertinent to revisit the reflection on inclusive PE teacher training, particularly at the level of organization and structuring of curricula, with regard to the development of skills to intervene with students with disabilities in the training of PE teachers. Thus, this investigation aimed to study the representations that are associated with the training of PE teachers for inclusion. Developed under the interpretive paradigm, the study used a semi-structured interview applied to a group of 3 university professors from 4 Portuguese university institutions with PE teacher training as a data collection instrument. This group of professors had an average age of 53±13.49 years and 20±19 years of university teaching service. Data was submitted to the content analysis technique (Bardin, 2008). The results identify the need to model the dimensions: i) of initial training, particularly with regard to constraints, strategies for inclusion in PE and training and training approaches; ii) the profile of the Inclusive Physical Education Teacher, emphasizing human and ethical training, motivation, mastery of technical skills, specific knowledge of disability, multidisciplinary scientific knowledge, adaptability and being a promoter/facilitator of inclusion; iii) continuous training, where the reasons for participation and non-participation are highlighted; iv) the aspirations for initial training, recognizing the need to develop practical training in a real context, the existence of long-term curricular units and the need for guided pedagogical practice in a real context.
- Perspetivas éticas de professores portugueses do ensino básico e secundário perante a inclusão em Educação Física.Publication . Celestino, Tadeu; Pereira, Antonino; Ribeiro, Esperança JalesO atual paradigma da escola inclusiva exige dos profissionais de ensino, e particularmente dos professores de educação física, para além do domínio de um quadro concetual teórico, um conjunto de competências específicas de intervenção. Concomitantemente requer igualmente a adoção de uma intencionalidade reflexiva fundamentada em valores éticos. Face ao exposto, o objetivo deste estudo é identificar e compreender quais os princípios éticos que orientam os professores de educação física portugueses aquando do desenvolvimento de processos inclusivos. Participaram neste estudo, 151 docentes de educação física de diferentes regiões de Portugal. Os participantes responderam a um questionário online, na plataforma Google Forms, com perguntas abertas e fechadas, sobre a importância dos valores e ética no desenvolvimento de processos inclusivos. Dada a natureza mista do estudo, o tratamento dos dados foi efetuado através da análise estatística descritiva e análise de conteúdo. A análise dos resultados permitiu identificar que os princípios que determinam a orientação ética dos professores de educação física face à inclusão caracterizam-se pelas seguintes premissas: i) o cuidado pelo outro; ii) o respeito pelo outro; iii) a procura de um bem comum, e iv) a virtude pessoal e profissional como axioma da práxis. Em suma, a vinculação a um referencial ético axiológico face à inclusão, por parte dos docentes de educação física, parece constituir-se um pilar central na efetivação e sucesso da inclusão em educação física.
- The Inclusive Physical Education Teacher Profile: an exploratory studyPublication . Celestino, Tadeu; Ribeiro, Esperança Jales; Pereira, AntoninoLittle is known about the particularities and specificities that should characterize the physical education (PE) teacher who aims at inclusion in their classes (European Agency for Development in Special Needs Education (2011). Thus, this exploratory study aimed to identify the distinctive characteristics that can characterize the inclusive physical education teacher profile (IPETP).
- Towards an Inclusive Ethics in Physical Education.Publication . Celestino, Tadeu; Pereira, Antonino; Ribeiro, Esperança JalesNa consecução do desiderato da inclusão educativa, enquanto direito universal, a sua efetiva concretização e sucesso depende de múltiplos e complexos fatores, entre os quais a ação coordenada entre vários atores e práticas educativas de qualidade, com respeito pela diversidade (Direção-Geral da Educação, 2018), a que não é alheia a intencionalidade do ser, estar e agir do professor. Deste modo, para além de um quadro concetual teórico e de competências específicas de intervenção, o processo de inclusão exige aos docentes, também, a necessidade da adoção de uma intencionalidade reflexiva e crítica alicerçada nos valores da ética inclusiva. Assim, o objetivo desta proposta de ensaio é o de trazer à discussão a relevância da intencionalidade ética do professor para a efetivação de processos de inclusão na educação física e desporto escolar. Neste sentido, elencamos duas dimensões modeladoras como propostas operativas e facilitadoras da inclusão em educação física e do desporto escolar como sejam: i) a formação ética/desportiva; e ii) a ética como referencial da práxis do professor de educação física. Em suma, realça-se a necessidade do desenvolvimento de uma intencionalidade ética inclusiva do professor de educação física materializada na busca do cuidado e responsabilidade para com o outro objetivando o pleno desenvolvimento multidimensional e inclusão de todos os alunos sem exceção.
- EXCELLENCE IN SPORT: A STUDY CENTERED ON THE LIFE STORY OF 14-TIME WORLD CHAMPION THIERRY GUEORGIOUPublication . Celestino, Tadeu Ferreira de Sousa Celestino; Leonido, Levi; Morgado, Elsa Gabriel; Pereira, AntoninoThis paper seeks to identify the factors and characteristics that determine the development and maintenance of excellence in orienteering, by examining the life of an athlete who has been a world champion 14 times. "Life Stories" were used as a method to collect data. The data was collected by conducting semi-structured interviews and an analysis of various documents. This data was then analyzed using the content analysis method. The results highlight the need for successful interaction between socio-contextual and socio-personal factors over time. Therefore, achieving excellence in orienteering is a multidimensional process that must be understood using a bio-psycho-socioaxiological perspective.
- Physical Education Teachers’ Representations of Their Training to Promote the Inclusion of Students with DisabilitiesPublication . Celestino, Tadeu Ferreira de Sousa Celestino; Jales Ribeiro, Esperança; Morgado, Elsa Gabriel; Leonido, Levi; Pereira, AntoninoSchool inclusion is based on the need to adopt and implement a holistic view of education, training, and human development embodied in the idea of everyone, for everyone. In the context of Physical Education (PE), there are still several constraints to the realization of this universal desideratum. Among these, teacher training and qualification for the inclusion of students with Specific Health Needs (SHNs) stands out. That is, students with physical and mental health problems whose impact is significantly manifested in the learning process. Thus, the objective of this study was to identify the representations of PE teachers about their training to develop inclusive processes with students with SES. Participants in this study were 151 PE teachers from different regions and districts of Portugal (Algarve, Aveiro, Castelo Branco, Lisbon, Porto, and Viseu) who had 23.6 ± 8.1 years of teaching service. Teachers answered an online questionnaire, on the Google Forms platform, with open and closed questions about their education and training to develop inclusive processes in PE. The results indicate two significant dimensions: (1) initial training for teaching inclusive PE and (2) continuous training for inclusion. Regarding initial training, a large majority of the teachers under study, at the end of their initial training, did not have the essential skills to teach PE to students with SES. It was also identified that a large majority reported not having had any contact with students with SES throughout their training process for teaching. It was also recognized that this training was not adjusted to the development of intervention skills with students with SHN. Regarding continuous training, it was identified that attendance at this training increased their skills to teach PE to students with SHN. Workshops/actions/training courses are the main training models adopted. However, it is recognized that the training provided does not respond concretely to their training needs to intervene with students with SHN, since teachers essentially seek to improve intervention in the context of inclusive physical education. We conclude that teacher training for inclusion is not yet fully adjusted to the reality of the inclusive school paradigm. In this sense, in practical terms, the following are suggested: (1) the need for reinforcement in study plans with specific and long-term curricular units; (2) the introduction of real practice components in context; and (3) supervised pedagogical practice in diverse contexts.
