O ser Professora de Educação Física na pandemia de COVID-19: reflexões acerca da Educação de Jovens e Adultos no contexto de Ensino Remoto Emergencial no Colégio de Aplicação João XXIII

Abstract

The work emerges from concerns and experiences acquired in the Teaching Residency program at the Federal University of Juiz de Fora in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic. With the advance of the pandemic, the João XXIII Application School/UFJF returns to its activities through Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT). With reference to Youth and Adult Education (YAE) in CAp João XXIII and the inclusion of Physical Education as a compulsory subject in this teaching modality, we present here the experiences that took place over the three academic semesters of EJA related to the first and second semester 2020 and the first half of 2021.The present work aims to understand being a teacher during the Covid-19 pandemic, in addition to problematizing the EJA restructuring processes during the ERE. For this, we used the narrative interview as a methodological tool for data collection, focusing on the look of the scholarship holder and one of the tenured teachers from CAp João XXIII, both participants of the Physical Education collective at YAE. For data analysis, we appropriated Dialectical Historical Materialism, a theoretical framework used by Historical-Critical Pedagogy in order to interpret and assimilate the connections and determinants behind the phenomena. In this way, being a Physical Education teacher in the education of young people, adults and seniors at CAP João XXIII in the context of the ERE has been a challenge, whether due to the insertion and implementation of digital media, the work overload, the precariousness of work teacher, by the cut in funds or even by the illness of the actors and actresses who make up the school.
