RESUMO
Resumo Este ensaio propõe problematizar outras formas de pensar os processos de formação e a constituição da docência de professores de Educação Física que atuam nos diferentes níveis de ensino. Busca traçar entrelaçamento e diálogo interseccionais entre três campos: Arte, Cultura e Educação Física, com vistas a trazer novas perspectivas à formação e ao trabalho docente. Reflete a arte, a cultura e as experiências estéticas como potencialidades capazes de provocar o docente a lançar mão, em sua formação e na docência, de criações e objetivações estratégicas para lidar com o conhecimento e com o cotidiano escolar.
Abstract This essay proposes to problematize other ways of thinking about the training processes and the constitution of the teaching of Physical Education teachers who work at different levels of education. It seeks to trace interweaving and intersectional dialogue among three fields: Art, Culture, and Physical Education, to bring new perspectives to teacher training and teaching work in early childhood education. It reflects art, culture and aesthetic experiences as potentialities capable of provoking teachers to make use, in their training and teaching, of strategic creations and objectifications to deal with knowledge and school daily life.

RESUMO
BackgroundEarly in the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, many national public health authorities implemented non-pharmaceutical interventions to mitigate disease outbreaks. Panama established mandatory mask use two months after its first documented case. Initial compliance was high, but diverse masks were used in public areas. We studied behavioral dynamics of mask use through the first two COVID waves in Panama, to improve implementation of effective, low-cost public health containment measures, when populations are exposed to novel air-borne pathogens. MethodsMask use behavior was recorded from pedestrians in four Panamanian populations (August to December 2020). We recorded facial coverings; and if used, the type of mask, and gender and estimated age of the wearer. FindingsPeople were highly compliant (> 95%) with mask mandates, and demonstrated important population-level behaviours: 1) decreasing use of cloth masks over time, and increasing use of surgical masks; 2) mask use was 3-fold lower in sub-urban neighborhoods than other public areas; and 3) young people were least likely to wear masks. InterpretationResults help focus highly-effective, low-cost, public health interventions for managing and controlling a pandemic. Considerations of behavioural preferences for different masks, relative to pricing and availability, are essential for optimizing public health policies. Policies to increase availability of effective masks, and behavioral nudges to increase acceptance, and to facilitate mask usage, during the on-going SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, and for future pandemics of respiratory pathogens, are key tools, especially for nations lagging in access to expensive vaccines and pharmacological approaches.
