Experiências da formação docente continuada virtual: interfaces de uma construção coletiva via extensão universitária

Abstract

This text is an experience report about the teacher training project named “Conexão Educação Física” (Physical Education Connection), which emerges in August 2020 as a YouTube channel. This extension project consists of a digital repository aimed at the continued training of teachers working in basic education, on topics of interest to the teaching community interested in qualifying it, promoting the dissemination of knowledge produced in academia and schools. The channel’s content is diverse, with themes such as school management, popular culture, ethnic and racial relations, among others, and specifi c contents of Physical Education. Teachers and researchers from diff erent states of Brazil, working with popular, basic, and academic education, from public and private schools, contribute voluntarily and in solidarity with the project. We understand teachers as potential producers and authors of their practice, and not as reproducers of theories developed at universities. The channel is an eff ort to consolidate a space for teacher ́s refl ection and practice by promoting interaction and communication habits mediated by technologies, along the lines of digital culture.
