Construção de um Professor de Educação Física: Desafios na transição de aluno para professor

Abstract

This school placement report was developed as part of the Master's programme in Teaching Physical Education in Primary and Secondary Education at the Faculty of Sports. The aim of the school placement is to strengthen the pre-service teacher in terms of their teaching characteristics so that they can understand and resolve any educational difficulties they may encounter in their future professional life. The report covers decisions, difficulties and achievements in the organisation and management of teaching and learning, as well as interaction with the school and the remaining educational community. It also details the teaching strategies used, evaluations and observations made during the internship, emphasising the importance of adaptation and flexibility in the school environment. In addition, the document includes a quantitative study on the physical aptitude of 12th grade students, using some tests from the FITescola programme where the results show an improvement in the students' physical aptitude. This report shows the personal and professional growth of the pre-service teacher, emphasising the importance of supervised pedagogical practice in building a professional teaching identity.
