RESUMO

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a program to develop skills for teaching in Physical Education professionals working in education for children with Intellectual Disabilities. Besides the essential skills, these professionals must demonstrate the process of inclusion and ensure the continuation of these children in the school context. This research had as participants 40 (forty) physical education teachers, put at the Regional Superintendent of Education State - SRE, located in a município in southern Minas Gerais state, and working in public schools. The forty (40) physical education teachers were randomly referred to by the principal, and is called the experimental group, ie, those professionals who attended, in fact, the sessions of the development skills program. These participants were monitored and evaluated during the instructional program. A research design statistics of the type pre-test and post-test was used applied at the beginning and the end of the program at the same time to verify the entry level or competence (knowledge, skills and attitudes). This methodology combines planned techniques, targeted intervention in educational situations and has been exploited as a tool for application deployment and implementation of programs and projects of public policy on continuing education. Levels of effectiveness were obtained by systems of individualized instructional evaluation. The survey results indicate that the median of the notes in the pretest was (7.5) points in the post-test (8.8) points, and detected a significant difference (Z = 4.641, p = 0,00) between them. The grade in the post-test was statistically higher when compared to the grade in the pre-test, and therefore the participants obtained skills, due to the conducted teacher training. In the analysis of results only one "outlier" in the post-test was observed, which demonstrates the existence of a single individual discordant group. The results also suggest the need to implement a master plan for mapping skills in proposing public policy actions in continuing education for professionals in physical education and others working in the education of children with special educational needs.
