As reflexões basearam-se a partir dos autores que defendem a proposta pedagógica do Teaching Games For Understanding (TGFU). No decorrer das discussões teóricas, foi realizado um diálogo entre as propostas desses autores e as reflexões de autores brasileiros que abordam o tema da Pedagogia do Esporte. É importante ressaltar que, a partir do encontro e da comparação das propostas de dois grupos de autores, é possível contribuir de maneira significativa para avanços da produção teórica no tema da Pedagogia do Esporte e Iniciação Esportiva. Além de contribuir com a construção de um referencial teórico, este estudo teve como objetivo verificar quais as características da Iniciação Esportiva nos 4 principais clubes do Estado de São Paulo. Para isso, foi realizada uma pesquisa de campo dividida em dois momentos: realização de entrevistas semi-estruturadas com os professores envolvidos com as aulas de iniciação esportiva nos clubes e a realização de observações não-participantes das aulas ministradas por esses professores. O objetivo das entrevistas foi o de verificar o perfil do profissional que trabalha com a iniciação esportiva à modalidade: sua formação escolar, sua experiência com a modalidade e, principalmente o de constatar quais os principais conteúdos que eles consideram que devem ser trabalhados em aulas de iniciação esportiva ao Tênis de Campo. O objetivo da observação das aulas foi o de constatar quais os conteúdos trabalhados nas aulas e quais os procedimentos pedagógicos utilizados pelo professores. A partir da pesquisa de campo, constatou-se que a maioria dos professores entrevistados não possui formação acadêmica em Educação Física, todos eles possuíam vivência na modalidade antes de se tornarem professores, e acreditavam que o ensino dos elementos técnicos da modalidade corresponde ao principal conteúdo a ser ensinado nas aulas de iniciação esportiva. Em relação aos conteúdos trabalhados durante as aulas, foi possível constatar que a preocupação central da maioria das aulas ainda é a de ensinar as habilidades técnicas da modalidade. Nesse sentido, verificamos uma disparidade entre as propostas pedagógicas de ensino do Tênis de Campo e o contexto da iniciação esportiva à modalidade constatado a partir da pesquisa de campo. / Abstract: This study promotes, initially, a theoretical discussion about Sport Pedagogy and sport initiation to Tennis. The reflections were based upon the Teaching Games For Understanding (TGFU) proposal. During the theoretical discussions, we proposed an dialogue between the TGFU ideas and the reflections of Brazilian authors that discuss Sport Pedagogy. It is important to point out that through these comparisons of two different proposals it is possible to contribute to the development of the theoretical productions of Sport Pedagogy. Besides these theoretical contributions, this study aims to verify the characteristics of sport initiation to Tennis in the 4 biggest sport clubs in the state of São Paulo. In order to do that, a field research took place in these clubs. This research was divided in two moments: first we interviewed the teachers responsible for the Tennis classes and, afterwards, we observed the classes. The purpose of the interviews was to get to know the profile of this professional involved in the process of sport initiation: the scholar level, the professional experience and, most importantly, verify what are the aspects of sport initiation classes that they consider to be more relevant in the classes. The purpose of the observation was to verify what activities are proposed during the classes. The field research showed that most of the teachers do not have a graduation degree in Physical Education, and all of them had some experience in Tennis before becoming teachers, also most of them believed that teaching the techniques should be the main purpose of the classes. Through the classes observation, it is possible to establish that most of the classes are based upon the goal of teaching technique skills. Thus, it is possible to see a disparity between the pedagogical proposals researched in the literature and the characteristics verified through the field research. / Mestrado / Ciencias do Desporto / Mestre em Educação Física

The Tactical Games Model (TGM) is an instructional model in which the primary assumption is to facilitate students' tactical understanding of games (i.e., response-selection and execution processes). Additionally, there is speculation that tactical understanding of one game transfers to other tactically similar games (Mitchell, Oslin & Griffin, 2006, p. 20). Limited research has been conducted regarding student response selection processes, problem representations, knowledge base development, or transfer of learning in this model. Griffin and Patton (2005) called for examination of TGM through an information processing lens. Examining action, condition, and goal responses of novice physical education students could provide significant insight to students' improved game performance. Also, examining students' engagement in particular tactical problems across diverse activities in a single game category could provide insight into how and which knowledge structures transfer. The purpose of this study was to examine fifth-grade students' tactical understanding and decision-making in a net/wall unit. A second purpose was to analyze the transfer of knowledge structures across the unit. Participants included an elementary school physical educator and purposively selected students (n=16; M=8, F=8) from a fifth-grade physical education class (N=50) at a suburban elementary school in the northeastern United States. Appropriate permission was obtained from the university's Institutional Review Board. The unit consisted of 20 lessons (50 minute classes). Select students remained in a cohort, participating with and against each other throughout the unit. Data was collected using multiple sources: (a) game performance (pre-post-unit), (b) situational knowledge quiz (pre-post-unit), (c) formal, semi-structured teacher interviews/written response to structured questions (pre-post-unit), (d) descriptive field notes, (e) video-taped and audio-taped teacher/student performances, (f) student think-aloud reports during the second game of each lesson (McPherson & Thomas, 1989), and (g) student focus group interviews (post-unit). Interviews were transcribed, open, axial, and selectively coded, then triangulated to develop categories. Situational quizzes, verbal recall data, and focus group interviews were micro-analyzed using a protocol analysis developed by McPherson and Thomas (1989) to examine action, condition, and goal orientations of students. Video taped game performances were analyzed using the Game Performance Assessment Instrument (Griffin, Mitchell, & Oslin, 1997). Results contribute to the empirical support for TGM, as well as contribute to what is known about knowledge structure development and transfer of learning for 5th grade novice games players.
