Academic formation and professional intervention in Sports: rethinking the Brazilian Physical Education

As an initial conjecture, we noticed that Sport is treated in the Physical Education graduation in Brazil, as a didactic resource, under a fragmented vision. We searched the curriculum of two important universities from the state of Parana/Brazil and we were able to notice that the approaches follow and/or confirm this tendency. Starting from a bibliographical review, we chose approaches from sociologists that have studied the sport in specific moments of their academic careers. With these theories we intend to establish a dialogue and a wider and less fragmented vision of Sport. As a central hypothesis we presented that is not coherent to think in formative aspects based on a narrow interpretation, but is valid to approximate different views to comprehend the Sport phenomenon and their possibilities of professional intervention.
