Long-term continuing education: an analysis of factors that potentialize the change of physical education teacher's conception Abstract
The article discusses the results of a study that aimed to identify factors that potentialized changes in the conception of teachers participating in a long-term continuing education project. Based on the assumptions of Cultural Critical Physical Education (P.E.), through documentary research using secondary data, we analyzed the materials produced in a three-year collaborative study (26 meetings) with the participation of 15 teachers and one teacher-mediator. Although there is no specific factor that leads to a change in conception, and consequently in the teaching practice, we conclude that the main factors that induce change were: the recognition of students' right to learn the plurality of themes in the body culture of movement and the collective construction of a curriculum proposal for P.E. at a regional level.
