The Critical Thinking in Physical Education and Sports Teachers

Abstract

The inner world of the teacher of physical education and sports has become a determining variable in the understanding and justification of the pedagogical act of these professionals. Thus, the critical thinking of these social actors is presented as a privileged indicator likely to reflect not only the mental processes at stake by these teaching professionals but also the nature of the issues on which they deliberate the most often during the teaching-process learning. The present study tries, first, to describe the form and substance of critical thinking deployed by physical education and sports teachers (PES), then to analyze the relationship of this form of thinking and the teaching process. Keywords: Critical Thinking, PHE Teachers, Professionalism inking to the professional status of these teachers.
