Les défis et les apprentissages des formateurs d’enseignants d’éducation physique pendant la pandémie de COVID-19 au Brésil

Abstract

This research aimed to identify the challenges and learning of Higher Education teachers in physical education during the COVID-19 and their expectations for post-pandemic education. The research was carried out through a focus group with six professors (from private universities). Professors witnessed challenges related to the transition from traditional teaching to distance learning, mediated by technologies, which led to: experimenting new technological tools and new methodologies; developing new ways of relating to students; a major collaboration between professors; transferring experiences from other fields to Higher Education. Professors also expressed expectations of changes in teaching after the pandemic, integrating more digital technologies in Higher Education. COVID-19 provided new opportunities for professional learning.
