Abstract

The act of cycling in the city and the coexistence of different modes in the city in school activities can sensitize as a cultural activity that provides urban mobility, sport and leisure, with benefits associated with health, environment, economy, enhancing education as a practice freedom in traffic, mostly motorized, and the exercise of active citizenship. Having as reference the dialogical-problematizing education and the theory of cognitive flexibility, we analyzed an educational activity with the theme “Cycling in the city” developed with 16 teachers in initial training from mini-cases problematized according to the assumptions of these theories. We conclude that the activity potentiated the development of the participants' cognitive flexibility, with a potential transfer of knowledge to the school context, especially on health and environment issues from the perspective of education as a practice of freedom.
