Análise das estratégias pedagógicas de prevenção e enfrentamento do bullying na Educação Física Escolar

Abstract

Bullying is considered a social manifestation, described as deliberate and repetitive acts of physical or psychological violence, in which one person or group commits an act that causes pain and suffering to another group or individual. Its occurrence is embedded in a context of inequality, which is configured as nicknames, intimidation, name-calling, inabilities, poor motor coordination, among other factors. Victims are generally more vulnerable to aggressors because of certain physical, behavioral or emotional characteristics. This can have serious consequences and reduce school performance. As physical education classes are dynamic and contain a lot of practical content, their occurrences are routinely experienced in these classes. As a way of contextualizing this experience, this study is justified by the need to understand the possible strategies for dealing with bullying, in some public schools in the city of João Pessoa, during physical education classes. To this end, the general objective of this study was to analyze the pedagogical strategies for preventing and dealing with bullying used in school physical education classes. In view of this, this study was conducted using descriptive research of a qualitative nature, with a descriptive study typology, cross-sectional and based on the descriptive analysis approach through observation and discourse analysis as analysis techniques. In turn, a questionnaire was applied in order to achieve all the proposed objectives. Our results showed the main types of bullying: physical aggression, name-calling and threats. The main form of intervention adopted was unanimous among the teachers: dialogue, which is carried out individually or collectively and among the methodologies applied by the school, to minimize its occurrence and damage, are the creation of educational programs for prevention and intervention of other professionals such as Social Workers and Psychologists. Finally, with the completion of this study, we were able to understand, in a discreet way, how is the experience of bullying in some public schools in João Pessoa, as well as the approach of the teachers, during the Physical Education class and at school. In this, we conclude that all objectives have been achieved and we hope to subsidize scientific data on the subject and thus reinforce the need to prevent bullying, or its confrontation, in order to reduce its occurrence.
