O corpo nas aulas de educação física na percepção dos estudantes: uma revisão bibliográfica

Abstract

The text presents the results of a research, within the scope of the Course Completion Work (TCC) of the undergraduate course in physical education. The theme addresses the relationship of the body in physical education classes. The objective was to identify and analyze how the relationship that students establish with their bodies has been portrayed with reference to publications on the subject in physical education classes at school. A bibliographic review of specialized magazines in the area was used to survey the articles that were selected. Four articles were found dealing with the topic, which were analyzed based on the objectives, main results, and conclusions. We infer that the treatment given to the body in physical education classes has promoted bullying with students who do not have an “ideal” body. The literature review points to the need to analyze the manifestations of bullying in the lives of students considered obese, in school physical education classes. And to what extent is body aesthetics a concern of these students. Pedagogical mediation favors the construction of new knowledge from the differences that are established, with a view to the cultural construction of the children's body and to reconsider the marks produced in the bodies inside and outside the school. Overcoming this type of discrimination requires continuous training processes, so that teachers are able to deal with this type of attitude in the school environment.
