PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND YOUTH CULTURE IN THE CONTEXT OF A PUBLIC SCHOOL OF BELO HORIZONTE: A CASE STUDY

Os caminhos percorridos pelos jovens nos espa??os do mundo contempor??neo s??o marcados por diferentes oportunidades na escola, trabalho, lazer e cultura que acabam por estabelecerem normas para suas vidas. Os modos como utilizam os corpos, as tatuagens, piercing, brincos; bon??s e arranjos nos cabelos com seus tons e cortes irreverentes, como se vestem, a m??sica, dan??as, troca de olhares, cumprimentos e os espa??os/tempos que dividem na escola e fora dela contribuem para enturma????o com seus pares, d??o sentidos para suas vidas e nos fornece pistas para a diversidade existentes entre eles. Para tal utilizo minhas experi??ncias como jovem estudante, professor, as viv??ncias nas escolas e as leituras dos autores como CORTI, CATANI, DAYRELL, FREITAS, MCLAREN, PAES, SP??SITO, TOSTA e outros, para desvendar as contendas no cotidiano escolar que muitas vezes n??o permite aos jovens sentirem parte integrante do processo educativo. Esta pesquisa tem o objetivo de investigar como o grafite/picha????o, capoeira e o grupo zua????o se constituindo como culturas dos jovens de uma escola p??blica da cidade de Belo Horizonte/MG s??o vivenciadas, compreendidas tendo em vistas as possibilidades e limites de di??logos integrativos com a Educa????o F??sica. Utilizo a metodologia qualitativa (LUDKE, 1988;) orientada pelo estudo de caso. Os procedimentos se constitu??ram de entrevistas, observa????es, fotografias, conversas individuais e coletivas com os jovens. Fazendo um di??logo entre os mundos das culturas dos jovens e a Educa????o F??sica h?? indicativos da hegemonia dos esportes que se expressam na organiza????o dos curr??culos e dos espa??os destinados para suas viv??ncias. Este processo torna as culturas juvenis como meras coadjuvantes da esportivaThe paths taken by young people in the spaces of the contemporary world have been measured by different opportunities at school, work, leisure and culture that eventually have set standards for their lives. The ways that they use their bodies, tattoos, body piercing, earrings, hats and settling their hair with it??s flippancy hair and tones, the way they dress up, listen to music, dance, exchanging glances, greetings and space / time that they share in school and out of it, help them with their, give directions for their lives and gives us clues to the diversity between them. However I use my experiences as a young student and teacher and school experiences and the readings of authors such as CORTI, CATANI, DAYRELL, FREITAS, MCLAREN, PAES, SP??SITO, TOSTA and others, to solve the contentions in school life that often does not allow young people feel part of the educational process. This research aims to investigate how the graffiti, capoeira and the group of jokes have made part of the culture among the youth in a public1 school in the city of Belo Horizonte / MG, are experienced, understood, having seen the possibilities and limits of dialogue with the integrative Physical Education. I have used the qualitative methodology (LUDKE, 1988) guided by a case study. The procedures consisted of interviews, observations, photographs, individual and collective conversations with young people. Making a dialogue among the worlds of the cultures of youth and physical education is indicative of the hegemony of the sports that are expressed in the organization of the resum??s and spaces for their experiences. This process makes youth cultures as mere adjuncts of the sport
