Perspectiva emancipadora en las orientaciones evaluativas en el currículum de Educación Física en Chile

Assessment in Physical Education (PE) continues to be a topic of debate within the discipline, mainly due to the different currents and paradigms around this process. The way in which these approaches are approached will influence the way in which the evaluation processes are systematized. At present, the discipline's hegemony remains focused on evaluations focused on sports performance and physical condition. In this context, this article aims to analyze the presence of the emancipatory perspective in the evaluative orientations of the official curriculum of the subject of Physical Education (PE) in Chile. The research was developed under a qualitative approach, using documentary analysis as a technique for collecting information through various texts issued by the Ministry of Education of Chile (MINEDUC). The findings show a central tension in the PE curriculum: while the learning objectives by level are mostly associated with a technical approach that perpetuates a traditional logic focused on the measurement of observable aspects, the evaluative orientations propose greater student participation and encourage the use of various assessment instruments. This incongruity distances PE from its pedagogical function and its social meaning.
