The Challenges in School Physical Education in Classroom Management

Abstract

The classroom environment can be understood as a didactic/pedagogical space where the teaching-learning process takes place in different perspectives, seeking to build knowledge. Thus, this study aimed to analyze the challenges that the Physical Education teacher must face in his classroom management. This is a qualitative, descriptive study that uses semi-structured interviews as a way of obtaining data. Through the analysis of the data obtained, it was verified that the classroom management is related to the way the teacher deals with several factors, among them, the classroom environment, overcrowding in the classroom, students' indiscipline, planning pedagogical, teacher-student relationship, organization of classroom time, establishment of rules and factors that use to motivate students to practice, configuring themselves in a complex way. In this sense, it is considered that many of the topics presented can be considered by teachers as possible classroom management problems and the solutions found for them aren’t, in most cases, generic, since each teacher can consider the reality of their singular classroom. The term “diversification” can serve as a great help in the construction of classroom management, since diversifying aspects such as teaching methods, learning environments, among others, are beneficial alternatives in the construction of a classroom management that helps the process teaching-learning.
