"Da (in)certeza do desporto à afirmação na profissão: a história de um professor estagiário"

Abstract

For the completion of the masters degree in physical education in primary and secondary levels at the college of sports in the University of Porto, it is necessary to complete a professional internship. During the second year of training, I completed the internship at the "Escola Básica e Secundária Rodrigues de Freitas" in Porto, where I had the opportunity to teach students at different levels of education, from second grade to high school students. This report is a record of experiences and achievements as a trainee teacher in a reputable school in the district of Porto with the particularity of comprising of an amalgamation of students from different social backgrounds and special needs such as blindness and impaired vision. This dissertation is a personal reflection from a professional perspective based on practical work carried throughout the academic year. Significant considerations relevant to the exercise of the profession are made as part of the analysis of the study. The professional internship raised the question of understanding the importance of sports outside the school context and its influence on the physical education classes. KEYWORDS:
