Mídia e Esporte: percepção de professores de Educação Física em formação inicial sobre novas formas de midiatização

Abstract

Sport, over time, has become a well-established and highly relevant social phenomenon. It has been influencing and being influenced by sectors of society, including the media. This implies the sporting cultural formation of global populations. Therefore, it is also a way of educating young people in sports. Through streaming, especially Cazé TV, new ways of this occurring emerge. Therefore, this work aims to understand perceptions of Physical Education teachers in initial training about the contemporary forms of the mediatization of sport. The methodological path took place through participant observation research, descriptive and exploratory, with a qualitative approach, using the focus group technique. We realized that teachers in training, when stimulated by the course’s curricular structures, bring critical thoughts about media and education and that the use of streaming becomes a new tool for teaching sports in School Physical Education. Therefore, even though the new way of perceiving sport is focused on secularization, the understanding of teachers in training is paramount for understanding the tools provided by the media within Physical Education.
