Study Program Evaluation
Study program self-evaluation report(in portuguese)
One of ISMAI’s most defining and distinguishing features has been its investment in training physical education teachers in line with academic and legal requirements and the demands of the teaching profession today. It has done this by providing training that seeks to meet the challenges faced by recognising the value of physical education in education and sports policy. The training provided involves three different training areas that form the profile of an ISMAI physical education teacher: delivering lessons, education management, planning and participating in the education community and extension to the surrounding community. The aim is to train professionals who are able to: - Further develop and incorporate knowledge in physical education and its different fields, specifically school sport and active lifestyles: - Apply their scientific training pedagogically and didactically, based on a neohumanistic perspective with an ethical, social and cultural focus; - Deal with issues of school management and organisationde forma fundamentada e desenvolver soluções adequadas às diversas situações que se apresentam nas escolas e na comunidade; - Saber comunicar adequadamente utilizando diferentes formas de expressão em contextos educativos específicos; - Comportar-se de forma a incentivar o trabalho em equipe, o compartilhamento de informações e as conquistas individuais e coletivas nos ambientes educacionais onde lecionam; - Incorporar as exigências da vida profissional aumentando progressivamente a autonomia, assente numa identidade profissional ponderada e alicerçada nos princípios da cultura desportiva.
