Os Primeiros passos no Ensino: relatos e reflexões de um estudante em busca da sua Identidade Profissional.

Abstract

This document was conceived as part of the Professional Internship, which is part of the Master's Degree in Physical Education Teaching in Basic and Secondary Education, at the Faculdade de Desporto da Universidade do Porto. The Professional Internship was carried out at the Escola Secundária de Rio Tinto, where the student intern was inserted in a work group, the internship nucleus, being guided by a Cooperating Teacher and an Advisor Teacher, linked to the faculty. The writing deals with a year of internship taken in a context that allowed to acquire a wide range of skills and knowledge. A beginning marked by doubt and questioning, however, a path marked by growth and clarification. Participation in the school context, with regard to the community and school dynamics, led to the acquisition of a set of experiences that were fundamental to the construction of the "I" teacher. A pandemic context that forced distance learning, where it was possible to improve some skills that would not otherwise be possible. An investigative study was conceived and carried out, where behavioural regulation was developed in the students of the resident class. In this way, the current internship report describes and interprets a journey experienced by a trainee who has always dreamed of becoming a Physical Education teacher. KEYWORDS:
