Abstract
The Media Laboratory – LaboMidia – at the Sports Center of the Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina – UFSC provides all the university’s undergraduate and post-graduation students as well as its professors and researchers with the opportunity to have a closer contact with themes which are related to Physical Education, Media, and New Information Technologies, such as the production of audiovisual materials. This study relates a research work which aimed at investigating the concepts and meanings related to the production of video materials for teacher education in Physical Education. The adopted methodology included focus groups with faculty and students who produced the greatest amount of videos at LaboMidia in 2003 and 2004 as well as qualitative content analysis of their statements. This observation showed that, besides being a didactic strategy, video production can contribute to the teacher education of Physical Education teachers as to the autonomous and critical use of media in daily school activities.
