It is very common that teachers’ degrees are questioned about the fundamental knowledge and methods one has to hold in order to teach. This kind of reflection concerning teachers’ education requires constant research and education update so that the teachers’ social meaning can be defined. Knowing something does not mean only being informed about some field, it is necessary that they are able to utilize these pieces of information to build knowledge. Therefore, teachers and professors are mediators between the social application of information and their pupils. Some other problematic factors are added to Physical Education teaching processes, in which teaching and learning active methodologies, as well as reflexive interventions about teaching practices, are not perceived. On the other hand, it is common that health majors in general also lack a capable and well educated student body who can build their own knowledge; involvement in real transforming actions (presenting different personal point of views); multidisciplinary relations (on the contrary, it can be easily noticed a certain detachment from other knowledge areas); monitoring criteria and evaluation of the teaching and learning processes.

The document discusses the privatization and commercialization of the Philippine education system and the resulting policy gaps. It notes that basic education is unable to adequately prepare students for specialized training due to lack of investment, resulting in higher education serving only to bridge skills gaps. Spending on education as a percentage of GDP has remained well below the recommended 6% benchmark. Meanwhile, significant portions of the national budget have been spent servicing interest on public debt, exceeding the estimated funding shortfalls for education to meet the Delors standard. This points to underinvestment in education being a matter of policy priorities rather than resources.
The document discusses key aspects of the legal foundation of education in the Philippines including:
1) Laws governing admission to public and private schools, colleges and universities which state that education from elementary to high school should be free and compulsory.
2) Requirements for admission to elementary and secondary levels.
3) The K-12 education system which aims to provide students with 12 years of basic education to better prepare them for employment or higher education.
4) Outcome-based education which focuses on measuring what students know and can do rather than inputs like time spent in class.
The Kothari Education Commission (1964-1966) was formed to comprehensively examine India's education system and make recommendations to align it with national development goals. The commission was chaired by Dr. D.S. Kothari and had 17 members including foreign experts. It submitted the "Education and National Development" report in 1966. Key recommendations included a 10-year universal education program, increasing the focus on science, technology and vocational education, improving teacher training programs, and aligning education with India's social, economic and political needs.

Journey in the Basic Education Curricular reformsPaul Christian
The document summarizes the major curricular reforms in basic education in the Philippines from 1946 to 2013. It outlines the changes to elementary and secondary education curricula over this period, including the introduction of new plans like the 2-2 plan in 1957, the Revised Secondary Education Program in 1973, the New Secondary Education Curriculum in 1989, and the 2002 Basic Education Curriculum. It also notes the implementation of the K-12 program beginning in 2012 as the expansion of basic education to include kindergarten and 2 additional years of senior high school.
The document discusses the development of the Philippine public school curriculum model. It outlines key changes and reforms to the education system from pre-Spanish times to the present day, including the introduction of the National Elementary School Curriculum in 1984 and New Secondary Education Curriculum in 1991. These were research-based curricula that emphasized mastery learning and developing minimum learning competencies in fewer subject areas. The curriculum has continued to evolve with revisions made in 2002, 2010, and most recently in 2012 with the K-12 Basic Education Curriculum.
The EDCOM report assessed the state of education in the Philippines and found several issues including low investment, disparities in access, low achievement, high dropout rates, and an ineffective organizational structure. It recommended reforms such as prioritizing basic education, using the mother tongue as the language of instruction, expanding technical education, strengthening teacher education, and restructuring the Department of Education. Several laws were subsequently passed to implement the EDCOM recommendations, including the establishment of the Commission on Higher Education to oversee tertiary education and the Technical Education and Skills Development Authority.
The Commission on Higher Education has approved a new general education curriculum for colleges and universities to implement for students graduating from the K-12 program. The new GE curriculum will be completed in one year instead of two and many current GE subjects will have been covered in senior high school. This has prompted disciplines like engineering to shorten their degree programs from five to four years. Technical panels from each discipline will decide how to adjust their individual curricula. The new GE curriculum consists of 12 subjects including Filipino history and culture. It also allows students to choose three elective subjects. The implementation of the K-12 program and shortened GE has raised issues around the impact on GE teachers and colleges over the next two years with fewer students.
The document provides an overview and comparison of the educational systems of China and India. It outlines the structure of schooling in both countries from primary to tertiary levels, including compulsory education policies. Some key differences highlighted are China's unified school system versus India's public and private sectors, as well as the higher student populations and spending as a percentage of GDP in China. The document also notes challenges faced in both countries' education including lack of resources, pressure on students, and problems with practical and research-based learning. Solutions proposed include evidence-based policy, professional teaching support, and developing students' thinking skills.
The document discusses curriculum review as key to functional basic education in Nigeria. It provides historical context on changes to Nigeria's education system and curriculum over time. Some key points:
- Nigeria has undergone various reforms to its education system including changing from a 7-5-4 to 6-3-3-4 system and implementing Universal Basic Education.
- Curriculum review is important to ensure the curriculum meets the needs of society and remains relevant. However, changes must be properly planned.
- The current justification for reviewing the basic education curriculum included addressing issues like curriculum overload and promoting critical thinking.
- The new basic education curriculum reduced subjects from 20 maximum to 10 to align with international best practices.
1) Public education in the Philippines is largely based on the American schooling system from before comprehensive high schools were established in the US in the mid-20th century. The Philippine high school system has changed little since the country gained independence from the US in 1946.
2) The Philippine Constitution establishes education as a right for all citizens and mandates the state to establish, maintain, and support a complete education system from elementary through high school levels. Elementary education is compulsory.
3) The Constitution also requires the state to prioritize education spending and ensure teaching is an attractive profession through adequate pay and benefits to recruit and retain top talents.

Teachers don´t have what to celebrate in your day in brazilFernando Alcoforado
The 15th of October is considered the Teacher's Day in Brazil. Teachers in Brazil don´t have many reasons to celebrate the day because the Brazilian education faces an unprecedented crisis. This crisis results from a lack of adequate government policies, the existence of an inefficient and ineffective education system and negligence in the treatment and relationship with teachers.
Formal education in Pakistan includes 5 levels - primary, middle, secondary, intermediate, and university level. It has a planned curriculum and is offered through structured schools and colleges. However, the document provides a critical analysis of some issues with formal education in Pakistan, including that the methodology focuses on exposition rather than desired behavioral objectives, assessments are used more for administration than improving the system, and it is often disconnected from students' needs and community needs.
This document provides context on China's education system by discussing its history and key influences. It describes how Confucianism in early China promoted education equity and quality. Mao's rule politicized education and increased rural access but lowered quality. The reform period prioritized urban education, increasing disparities. The document aims to understand factors shaping China's modern system, like the 2001 curriculum reform.
This document discusses three foundations of educational planning: sociological, demographic, and economic. The sociological section explains how education is interconnected with social factors. The demographic section outlines how population size, growth, age composition, and distribution impact educational needs. The economic section describes how a country's economic strength influences the type and content of education, and how wealth distribution relates to individual and national development.
The Revised Basic Education Curriculum (RBEC) of 2002 aimed to provide students with knowledge, skills, attitudes, and values needed for personal development and contributing to a changing society. It was based on a 16-year study that began in 1986 and recommendations from the Philippine Commission on Educational Reforms. Key features included greater emphasis on reading skills, interactive learning, integrating subjects, and teaching values across all areas. The curriculum structure focused on core subjects like Filipino, English, math, and science, as well as experiential areas like citizenship education. Its desired outcome was to develop patriotic, environmentally sensitive, and God-fearing students.

This document summarizes a qualitative study that explored how Bachelor of Child and Youth Care students may be influenced by their educational program and apply what they've learned to their own future parenting styles. The study analyzed responses from 15 students through open-ended surveys. Four major themes emerged: 1) a desire to adopt an authoritative parenting style, unlike the authoritarian styles many experienced, 2) influence from specific courses and concepts around development, abuse, and substance use, 3) a better understanding of parenting theories, and 4) increased self-reflection abilities. The results suggest the CYC program significantly impacts not only graduates' professional skills but also their personal approaches to parenting.
Controversies and Navigation of Inclusive Education in the Context of Bangladeshinventionjournals

The Debilitating Effect of Conflict on the Female Gender: The Syrian Conflict...inventionjournals
In times of war, members of the same society face very different challenges. The impact of war on someone will vary according to factors such as age, social class, and gender. What appears to have taken centre stage in the discussion of the Syrian conflict is the impact of the conflict on children and the dangers threatening their everyday lives. Children however are not the only vulnerable members of society at war. Syrian women also face extremely adverse conditions. This paper sets out to analytically x-ray the plight of women in conflict situations with particular reference to the Syrian crisis. It finds amongst other things that women are indeed the most vulnerable in war times and it recommends amongst other things that strive for the protection of the vulnerable in war times and conflict prone zones is a quest that must be sought.
MeĢrutiyet Devrimi Sürecinde Ġran’da Ulemânın Rolü ve Etkisi (1906-1911)inventionjournals
Ġran'da ülke içindeki toplumsal, siyasi ve ekonomik duruma bağlı olarak güç yapısında bazı değiĢimler meydana gelmektedir. Bu değiĢimler Ġran’daki mevcut sosyal gruplar arasındaki güç dengelerini değiĢtirmektedir. MonarĢiler döneminde, siyasi bir figür olarak ġah Ġran’daki güç üzerinde tekelci bir konuma sahip olamamıĢtır, ancak yabancı hükümetlerin desteği ve iç muhalif dengelerin de yardımıyla otoritesini kurabilmiĢtir. Bu makalede Ġran’da MeĢrutiyet Devrimi (1906-1911) döneminde yaĢanan siyasi ve toplumsal değiĢimler ve din adamlarının (ulemâ sınıfı) bu değiĢimler karĢısındaki tavrı tarihi ve kültürel süreç içerisinde ulemânın sahip olduğu konumla birlikte ele alınmıĢtır. “Ġran’da MeĢrutiyet Devriminin OluĢumu” ve “MeĢrutiyet Döneminde Ġran’da Etkin Ulemâ” baĢlıkları ulemânın gücü ve toplum üzerindeki etkisi dikkate alınarak incelenmiĢtir. Bu baĢlıkların yanı sıra Ġran MeĢrutiyet Devriminin, Osmanlı Ġmparatorluğu’nun son döneminde yaĢadığı II. MeĢrutiyet Devrimiyle(1908-1913) karĢılaĢtırıldığı bir baĢlık konulmuĢ ve böylece Ġran’ın geçirdiği meĢrutiyet sürecinin daha iyi anlaĢılması sağlanmıĢtır. Yöntem olarak nitel araĢtırma tekniklerinden olan kaynak incelemesi (Türkçe ve Ġngilizce Tezler, bilimsel raporlar, akademik makaleler, kitaplar) tercih edilmiĢtir.

D-Penicillamine Alleviates Oxidative Stress in Neonates by Its Influence on C...inventionjournals
Objective – the aim of this article was to demonstrate the protection of biomembranes against lipid peroxidation, and highlight the role of D-Penicillamine (D-PA). Study Design – The authors conducted a review searching the relevant literature of bilirubin and copper metabolisms, and of antioxidant effects of D-PA in the neonatal period. Results – Unconjugated bilirubin has a special affinity for the globus pallidus, the hippocampus, and the subthalamic nucleus (basal ganglia). Furthermore, immaturity of the blood-brain barrier also contributes to the development of kernicterus. Homeostasis of metal ions usually involves a huge set of proteins which regulate the proper metal biology. Metal ions, especially copper and iron play very important roles in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including bilirubin-induced neurologic dysfunction (BIND), having impact on both protein structure (misfolding) and oxidative stress. D-PA by its ability to modulate both oxidative stress and nitric oxide (NO) pathway may have significant neuroprotective effects in cases jeopardized by BIND or retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Interpretation – The authors conclude that treatment with D-PA might result in a wide range of health benefits, improved quality of life and reduced healthcare costs and may help reduce complications in the neonatal period. Keywords: Bilirubin-induced neurologic dysfunction; Reactive oxygen species; Copper dyshomeostasis;; Neurodegeneration; D-Penicillamine in the neonatal period Key points: ► D-PA was first recognized as a potential benefit for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. During this time there was a remarkably low incidence ROP in the infants treated with this drug. Later, our studies were replicated in other institutes in Hungary, Poland, the USA, India and Mexico. ►It is important to note that there was no intolerance or short- or long-term toxicity of the medication, in spite of the fact that in the newborn period D-PA was used 10-20 times higher doses than those in adult. ► Metal ions, especially copper and iron play very important roles in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases, including BIND and ROP, having impact on both protein structure (misfolding) and oxidative stress. ► D-PA by its ability to modulate both oxidative stress and nitric oxide pathway may have significant neuroprotective effects in cases jeopardized by bilirubin encephalopathy or ROP

Education in Brazil between 1930 and 1985: Prioritizing Quantity over Quality...Gustavo Araújo
In the history of research on Brazilian education, several studies have addressed the expansion of elementary education over the years in Brazil, in addition to the historical pedagogical context that permeated this process of expansion in the period between 1930 and 1985. The main objective of this article is to analyze the process of expansion of Brazilian elementary education, based on Laws No. 4.024/61 and No. 5.692/71 of the National Education Guidelines and Framework Law (NEGFL). This research was based on a qualitative approach to documentary and bibliographic evidence and followed an interpretative research perspective. The article concludes that the educational policy of the military dictatorship in Brazil after the 1960s was supported by these two laws, and that their main objective was to ensure the expansion of vacancies in elementary education, aiming at the minimum qualifications for entry into the labor market, prioritizing the quantity and not the quality of education. Public education realized in the formation of human resources is considered a way to guarantee productivity, attending on the one hand to the demands for qualified labor in the capitalist market, and on the other hand, to the improvement of wages and the distribution of income to the elites.

Specialized Education versus General Liberal Education.docxwrite5
This document discusses and compares specialized education versus general liberal education. Specialized education focuses on a specific subject or career field to prepare students for the workforce through condensed programs that may include work experience. General liberal education provides a broader range of knowledge across different subjects such as science, humanities and culture to develop critical thinking skills. While liberal education may provide more flexibility, specialized education better prepares students for current job market needs and allows for career changes without lengthy programs of study. Overall the document argues that specialized education is preferable to solely pursuing a general liberal arts education.

Curriculum implementation in religious education in nigeriaAlexander Decker
This document discusses curriculum implementation in religious education in Nigeria. It begins by defining curriculum as the planned learning experiences offered to students under school guidance. Curriculum implementation refers to engaging students with planned learning opportunities through appropriate teaching methods. The key implementers of any curriculum are teachers, who must translate curriculum plans into real classroom activities. Specifically for religious education, teachers must focus on syllabi to determine the recommended topics and learning experiences to provide students from year to year. Factors that can enhance or inhibit effective implementation of religious education curriculum are also examined.

Describe at least three factors (e.g., normal schools broadened their curricula to the training of secondary school teachers, requirement of the completion of high school to be admitted to college for teacher training, teachers must have a bachelor’s degree, development and growth of teacher training courses, Herbartianism, teacher certification, and teacher organizations) that contribute to improved teacher training in the late-19th and early-20th centuries. Select one contribution and determine if it is still prevalent today. Explain how you could improve on this contribution by using technology in your own classroom or school situation.
Chapter 5.4
5.4 Improved Teacher Training and Professionalism
Teacher training benefited from a strengthening of the curriculum and standards at the normal schools. Additionally, at the same time that the number of colleges and universities was increasing, and the role of the university evolving, many universities also established departments of pedagogy or teacher education. The entry of the universities into teacher training brought a movement to develop a science of education and a scientific approach to the learning process. The work of Johann Herbart was a major contribution to this movement.
Strengthening of the Normal School Curriculum and Standards
Between the end of the Civil War and 1900, the number of normal schools exploded from 50 to nearly 350. Unfortunately, in many of these institutions the academic background of both the faculty and students precluded them from teaching or studying at a collegiate level: High school completion was seldom required for admission, and the majority of instructors did not hold a college degree themselves (Diener, 2008). The majority of these institutions focused on the technical training of teachers rather than providing a broad liberal education.
However, as the new century advanced, improvements in the quality of faculties, students, and facilities were matched by an expansion of the curriculum. A burgeoning population had created an increased demand for elementary and common school teachers, while the secondary school movement created a concomitant demand for secondary teachers. Normal schools began to broaden their curricula to include the training of secondary school teachers, and they began to require high school completion for admission and college degrees for faculty.
During the second and third decades of the 20th century, normal schools, responding in part to competition from colleges and universities entering teacher training (described in the next section), expanded their programs from 2, to 3, and eventually to 4 years. By this time many of them were beginning to call themselves state teachers' colleges and offering B.A. degrees.

The document summarizes the historical development of education in the Philippines from the Spanish colonization period to the present. It discusses how the educational system was introduced and evolved under Spanish, American, and Japanese rule. The key developments included the establishment of the first universities, the introduction of English education, and the modernization of the system to its current K-12 structure resembling the American model. The document also provides an overview of the various levels and types of education available in the Philippines today.
The consolidation of school inclusion paradigm requires changes in education systems to ensure access and learning for all students. The adjustments are one of these fronts and offer flexibility to the curriculum access, but it also requires that teachers are able to do so. In this context, continuing education programs – face and distance learning – have enabled to empower educators to carry out curricular adjustments according to the students` differences. This study aimed to identify what education professionals said about curriculum adaptations and compare whether groups with different experiences differed on how to implement them. Nine hundred and four school workers enrolled in distance teaching continuing program responded to an electronic questionnaire about curriculum adjustments. The collected data were submitted to descriptive and statistical analysis. As a result, significant differences were found among different groups of Regular Education for the categories “Significant adjustment score” and “total of adjustments” while the Special Education groups presented differences only in “Significant adjustment score”. There was also positive and weak correlation between “time experience” and the categories of “adjustments”. The findings suggest that the time of professional experience favors curricular adjustments, but other factors that corroborated for the execution of these practices should be investigated.

This paper describes a speed control device for generating electrical energy on an electricity network based on the doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) used for wind power conversion systems. At first, a double-fed induction generator model was constructed. A control law is formulated to govern the flow of energy between the stator of a DFIG and the energy network using three types of controllers: proportional integral (PI), sliding mode controller (SMC) and second order sliding mode controller (SOSMC). Their different results in terms of power reference tracking, reaction to unexpected speed fluctuations, sensitivity to perturbations, and resilience against machine parameter alterations are compared. MATLAB/Simulink was used to conduct the simulations for the preceding study. Multiple simulations have shown very satisfying results, and the investigations demonstrate the efficacy and power-enhancing capabilities of the suggested control system.

ABSTRACT: It is very common that teachers’ degrees are questioned about the fundamental knowledge and
methods one has to hold in order to teach. This kind of reflection concerning teachers’ education requires
constant research and education update so that the teachers’ social meaning can be defined. Knowing
something does not mean only being informed about some field, it is necessary that they are able to utilize these
pieces of information to build knowledge. Therefore, teachers and professors are mediators between the social
application of information and their pupils. Some other problematic factors are added to Physical Education
teaching processes, in which teaching and learning active methodologies, as well as reflexive interventions
about teaching practices, are not perceived. On the other hand, it is common that health majors in general also
lack a capable and well educated student body who can build their own knowledge; involvement in real
transforming actions (presenting different personal point of views); multidisciplinary relations (on the contrary,
it can be easily noticed a certain detachment from other knowledge areas); monitoring criteria and evaluation
of the teaching and learning processes.

majors. The difficulties found on the HE in Brazil can be explained due to historical context, once, until 1878,
this level of education was strict only to the public e private central power (richer people), provoking inertia
within the population. The broadening and investment on this area were subjected to the government and its
interests at that time [2]. Thus, the government used to decide what kind of institutions they wanted to open and
their respective objectives, curriculum and programs, as well as the proximity they wanted to keep with the
professors and deans of those schools [3].
The current higher education in Brazil presents a system which divides the education into two different
cycles: the first one is the undergraduate school, considered to be the first professional formation and which are
divided into technologist’s (associate degree), licentiate (European academic degree) and bachelor’s degree,
which are responsible for students’ professional development and their social applications; the second cycle is
the graduate school, which may include lato sensu specialization, master’s and doctor’s degree [4]. The Physical
Education major can be either under a licentiate or a bachelor’s program. The latter was created recently and it
has become an important issue when it comes to professors’ formation on the higher education.
Researches show that more than half of the students who were accepted by universities revealed
personal and academic difficulties, culminating in an increase of their disappointment levels [5], i.e., although
the number of students who get into higher education institutions is rising, certain amount of them is made of
frustrated people because of what they get back from their major choices is not what they were expecting from
it. Professors’ potential is very questioned about the fundamental knowledge and work experience they should
have in order to teach. This kind of reflection concerning teachers’ education requires constant research and
education update so that the teachers’ social meaning can be correctly defined.
Knowing something does not mean only being informed about some field, it is necessary that they are
able to utilize these pieces of information to build up knowledge. Therefore, teachers and professors are
mediators between social application of information and their pupils [7]. The difficulties cited above, students’
disappointment and professors’ updates are part of a current problem, once education is nowadays considered to
be a two-way road [8].

II. HIGHER EDUCATION IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION
Higher education in Physical Education and, consequently, professors who have taught in this major
were all influenced by historical contexts. The history behind Physical Education in Brazil started out with the
creation of the first temporary major: the Military Physical Education, in 1910. Mostly only servicemen used to
participate in this major and the professors who used to teach it were former athletes and medical doctors. The
first civilians major was created in São Paulo, in 1934, and in Rio de Janeiro, in 1939 [9].
Physical Education classes have been mandatory since 1930 and, by the time, it consisted of the
practice of gymnastics in schools [10]. The main idea behind it, in that year, was to make Physical Education as
a hygienic and moralizing tool, because practicing it would allow physical development and health promotion.
Besides that, there were eugenic purposes – that is the reason why medical doctors were part of the teachers
group – and also the idea of preparing people to defend the nation – justifying the first military centers
specialized in this major [11].
Outside the governmental scope, the production of the official guidelines is measured by several
learning fields among the science areas, i.e., politics set up pedagogical trends which differ from the
appropriation of schools’ and professors’ pedagogical speeches [12].
The history behind the profession of Physical Educator in Brazil can be divided into three phases: the
first one is related to the professionals who used to demonstrate for and/or write about the necessity of
regulating their profession; the second phase happened in the 80’s, when a law project followed legal channels
regarding this regulation; and the third part is linked to the process of regulating this profession, which was
promulgated by the then president of Brazil on September 1st
, 1998, and published on the Official Journal of the
Union on September 9th
, 1998. According to the Physical Education Federal Council, until that day, the
universities which yet did not offer the major of Physical Education would have to offer it as classes to other
majors (first as mandatory classes, but then it became optional).
Analyzing the curricular guidelines of the many undergrad majors in Physical Education in Brazilian
universities, it is common to notice their similar organization concerning fields of study and professional
formation through thematic axis of knowledge, drawing boundaries between the bachelor’s degree and the
licentiate (European academic degree) formation, turning them into two different academic-professional areas
[13]. It is important to mention that some topics, such as the regularization of the profession and its later
division into Baccalaureate and Licentiate, are very polemic among the teachers’ and students’ bodies, as well
as in higher education institutes, which multiplies the divergent ideas regarding professional duties and teaching
methods.
Formally, Physical Education is characterized by two distinct majors: licentiate, which allows
professionals to teach the area in schools, from kindergarten to high school; and baccalaureate, which enable
them to act at clubs, gyms, camping, etc. However, this distinction has always been target of controversial
debates involving the professionalization and the Physical Education knowledge consolidation [13], whereas
many other majors, for instance, Biology, are also divided into these two areas, but may differ from Physical
Education because of their historical context.
This discussion is not limited to the other majors’ topics, for example: transcript, teaching methods and
evaluation. Some studies have shown the importance of approximating the type of the degree to the school and
social realities, letting students in constant contact with trivial dilemmas regarding teacher and professional
interventions [14].
The authors who defended the creation of the baccalaureate major believed that this improvement
would promote qualification to professionals of the area, whereas the authors against it believed that this would
cause a greater fragmentation on these professionals’ formation, provoking a division especially among those
who produce and transmit knowledge [15].
It is important to highlight that the particularities on teaching Physical Education add up to other
problematic points, in which the practical applications of teaching-learning methodologies, the promotion of
reflexive interventions about traditional practices, students’ trainings as an autonomous being regarding the
acquisition of their own knowledge, the involvement in reality-transforming actions (which is currently
presenting certain divergence concerning other people’s points of view), the interdisciplinary relations (which is
in fact becoming less and less common), the criteria to monitor and evaluate teaching and learning methods
applied to health majors, etc. could not be noticed [16].
Future Physical Education professors worry about the conceptions of pedagogical practices because, if
they commit any misinterpretations, they will cause problems on the consolidation of both the program and the
professors’ university body [17]. The Physical Education entrance test until the 90s consisted of a physical test,
which does not exist anymore, although students’ practices and physical capabilities in sports disciplines are
required. One of the most important factor responsible for professors’ difficulties regarding their relation with
the pedagogical knowledge content is the lack of a clear determination by the professors’ teaching programs
when it comes to justifying the application of certain pedagogical practices [18].

Thus, the professors’ formation programs involve a broad and diverse range of fields of knowledge,
and each discipline is characterized by their own culture. Due to the remarkable differences that exist on the
practice of teaching Physical Education and their specific objectives, curricular conceptions, pedagogical
speeches and fields of interest and action, it is a complex task, in which the initial step may be a better definition
of the current professional context and their social role [19], and then the utilization of active methodologies so
that the student can absorb this knowledge.
III. CONCLUSION
Within this context, the University, which should be compromised to overcoming social contradictions,
can also play an important role by shortening the gap between academic community and society, which will
provide the development of healthy life style practices, culminating in disease prevention and physical-
functional capability maintenance in the individuals’ both home and social environments. This can also provide
benefits to future professionals, who will have the opportunity to live integral health care, broadening their
horizons to future interventions.
This view of guiding professional formation demands the participation of both students’ and
professors’ bodies, as well as the directors and the community, to accomplish collective expectations and to
consolidate the professors’ responsibilities, which can be achieved by developing thoughts that take into
consideration different scenarios regarding teaching/learning development, culminating in the construction of
contextualized and informed knowledge concerning education with abilities and attitudes that allow them to
formulate propositions and solutions to questions found on their everyday professional life.
However, it is necessary that the predominant college graduation process, characterized by the flux of
theoretical content transfer through disciplines that segregate and hierarchize scientific knowledge, is overcome.
Nowadays, students learn from a solid theoretical base which does not allows them to fulfill their professional
life with excellence, not to mention the several contexts and approaches they can find on field activities to which
they are not trained completely. When it comes to health majors, this results in professionals whose actions are
based on a technical application of their scientific knowledge that was previously passed on to them, turning
their social role into a more straight-forward practice towards specific problems, and also respecting methodical
execution standards of technical-scientific knowledge. Therefore, students become inert when they need to face
problems and incapable of proposing and executing innovative solutions, not to mention utilizing their
theoretical and practical knowledge to achieve transforming characteristics.
In this context, professionals who would like to teach not only Physical Education, but also in different
majors. should present evolutionary and continuous characteristics, which should also be related to the context
in which they are developed, given that the orientations that guide to these changes affect not only what
surrounds them, but also the institutions themselves. Therefore, considering that an intense reflexion about the
teaching-learning process is necessary, especially to professors’ pedagogical knowledge, new point of views
rise, bringing up new discussion events and thus new studies and researches.
Mas para tal, deve ocorrer a superação do modelo predominante de formação universitária identificado
como assentado na transferência de conteúdos teóricos a partir de disciplinas que compartimentalizam e
hierarquizam o conhecimento cientifico, para que o discente institua uma sólida base teórica que lhe permitiria a
partir de sua aplicação uma atuação competente para alcançar a excelência profissional, sem considerar, no
entanto, os diferentes possíveis contextos que podem se apresentar nas atividades de campo. Disto resulta, no
caso da área da saúde, profissionais cuja natureza de suas ações se assenta no caráter tecnicista de aplicação de
conhecimentos científicos que lhe foram repassados, restringindo sua atuação a uma prática assistencial, dirigida
a problemas específicos, respeitando uma prescrição metódica de execução de saberes técnico-científicos, ou
seja, constituem-se profissionais que não possuem o hábito de refletir sobre sua prática e sobre a realidade que o
cerca, tornando-os, portanto, inertes diante dos problemas, incapazes de propor e executar soluções inovadoras e
de utilizar seu conhecimento teórico e prático para atingir uma práxis transformadora.
Neste sentido aponta-se uma formação para docência com um caráter de evolução e continuidade
também relacionada com o contexto na qual a mesma se desenvolve, sendo que a orientação para mudança que
permeia esta prática afeta não apenas o que está a sua volta, como também as próprias instituições.
Considerando, portanto, é necessária uma intensa reflexão sobre o processo de construção dos saberes
pedagógicos dos professores, permitindo que novos olhares sejam lançados, novas discussões sejam realizadas e
que consequentemente novos estudos sejam executados.
