Abstract
Olympic education is closely related to the assumptions and values of Olympism. Olympic values are a theme dear to Olympic education, which seeks to rescue the relationship between sport and the presuppositions and pedagogical values present in the Olympic Movement. Olympic Values serve as a code of conduct for the Olympic Movement, and strive to guide the attitudes and actions of all those involved in Olympic activities, be they competitive, administrative, or voluntary work. One tries to combine sport, education and culture, using the harmony between body and mind, excellence of oneself, integrity in actions, mutual respect, and joy found in effort. Thus, the objective of this research was to measure the self-perception of teachers and students in an educational program for sports, from the state of Sao Paulo (Brazil). The results showed differences between the groups of teachers and the one of students, as well as differences concerning the variables of gender and age, and the knowledge and education of the participants regarding Olympic values and Olympic education within the premises of good performance in sports and the judgment of their own behaviors regarding humanitarian values.
