Resumo

Introdução: A educação dos alunos migrantes recém-chegados à Suécia exige a compreensão de como as suas identidades são moldadas em relação à integração escolar e aos processos de transição. O reconhecimento, a confiança e o sentido de pertença desempenham um papel central nas suas experiências educacionais.

Objectivo: Este estudo procurou identificar os factores que influenciam a formação de identidades de aprendizagem e que promovem transições bem-sucedidas dentro do sistema educativo sueco.

Metodologia: Uma abordagem metaetnográfica foi combinada com narrativas de entrevistas desenvolvidas através de conversas de investigação aprofundadas com estudantes inscritos em programas introdutórios do ensino secundário na Suécia.

Resultados: Os resultados mostraram que o incentivo positivo, a confiança e o reconhecimento promoveram o crescimento pessoal e académico, reforçando a autoeficácia dos estudantes. Por outro lado, a desconfiança, as barreiras institucionais e a exclusão funcionaram como obstáculos à sua integração e progresso. Os resultados indicam que a educação física proporcionou aos alunos recém-chegados oportunidades de participar, demonstrar competências e obter reconhecimento, independentemente da sua proficiência linguística. Estas experiências promoveram a autoeficácia, a integração social e o desenvolvimento de identidades de aprendizagem dinâmicas.

Discussão: Os resultados são consistentes com estudos anteriores que destacam o papel do reconhecimento e das relações de apoio na resiliência e no sucesso académico dos estudantes migrantes. Demonstram também como os desafios estruturais continuam a limitar a sua plena participação.

Conclusões: O estudo concluiu que reconhecer e tratar os estudantes migrantes como indivíduos capazes, esperançosos e com recursos é essencial para a sua autoeficácia e integração. Este reconhecimento constitui a base de uma pedagogia inclusiva e culturalmente sensível que possibilita transições educativas positivas.
