 Introduction.Motivation of pupils is the principal aspect in successful physical education. One of the main objectives of a physical-education teacher is to create in pupils a strong desire to consciously and voluntarily carry out regular physical exercises and develop the potential to work independently.Theaimof the research was to show the influence of various approaches to the organization of sports activities on motivation leading to physical activity in young men aged 16–18.Methodology and research methods. The methodological base of the research involved a personally-oriented educational concept combining differentiated and kinesiological approaches to physical education. The research was carried out in phases using annual and longitudinal tests to evaluate students’ knowledge and skills. Levels of general intelligence were estimated using the I-S-T 2000R test as adapted by L. A. Yasyukova. Formal-dynamic characteristics of individuality were studied using the method developed by V. M. Rusalov. In order to evaluate motivation for the realization of motor activity, a specially-designed questionnaire was used. IBM SPSS Statistics 22 and Microsoft Excel software programs were employed for statistical processing of primary experimental material.Results and scientific novelty.A comparative analysis of the personal characteristics of senior school students and 1st year students (177 people) identified heterochronism in the development of standard motive and mental abilities of young people. It was observed that a lack of synchronism in the formation of separate functional systems in an organism causes a different attitude of school students to physical exercises implemented through an integrated program and standard approach without taking into account individual characteristics of young men. As compared with their peers, motivation to sport activities is initially higher among pupils with higher motor function. A formative level of general intelligence is lower due to students’ potential success when performing a wide complex of activities required by the physical culture curriculum. However, allowing free choice in sport specialization significantly increases the motivation of young people who are physically weaker but who are more intellectually developed than their peers.Practical significance. The research outcomes serve as scientific justification for the more extensive introduction of sports-oriented approach into educational institutions when organizing physical education. A sports-oriented approach is focused on preferences and interests of each student. The approach provides a free choice of the most attractive kinds of activity which gives a feeling of satisfaction and self-confidence, and consequently, enhances motivation to physical selfimprovement through visiting fitness centres and gyms which, in turn, will ensure good health in the future.

The discipline of physical education and sports is an important field for high school students. In physical education lessons, the use of interactive methods leads to stimulating students' interest in performing physical exercises, increasing the efficiency of the lesson, motivation to learn and discover new acts and actions. In order to have good results in the proposed activities, there must be a harmony between physical condition, basic physical abilities and specific ones. Properly performed physical exercises develop the basic motor qualities (speed, dexterity, suppleness, endurance, strength) that are indispensable to our lives. The research methods used in the experiment were: the method of bibliographic study, the method of observation, the method of tests, the mathematical method as well as the graphic and tabular method. The purpose of this experimental study is based on identifying the motor level of seventh grade students and obtaining better results that lead to progress in order to increase the efficiency of the physical education lesson. Therefore, different means were applied to the experiment class, and the control class followed the school curriculum.

Abstract Research paper deals with the opinions of students of secondary schools on physical education lessons at school. The aim was to find out various aspects of education such as popularity, demandingness, importance of the subject, feelings and emotions during PE lessons, and sport preferences of young people. The results have shown that the opinions of students on popularity, significance, talent, motivation and effort exerted during PE lessons were more positive than negative. Boys stated that they consider the subject not difficult, popular, and they show effort at lessons. Girls stated that the subject is not demanding, popular, but in a smaller degree than boys. Girls marked the subject as less importantn they show less talent for it and are less motivated for it than boys. As to boys, PE & Sport lessons evoke always or mostly emotions, while the answers of girls oscillated between mostly emotional, sometimes emotional or sometimes unemotional. Difference between the answers of boys and girls was statistically significant on the level of p<0,05. The answers of boys and girls to the question concerning cancellation of a PE lesson were oscillating between the values 2 and 3 (I am often happy; my opinion is indifferent), despite the fact that they stated in the questionnaire that they mostly feel well at PE lessons. The difference between both genders is statistically significant on the level of p<0,05. The answers of boys and girls to the question concerning satisfaction with the content of PE lessons oscillated between the values 2 and 3 (satisfied; partially satisfied, partially not satisfied). Generally we can state that the answers of students were more positive than negative. The difference between the answers of both genders is not statistically significant on the level of 0,05 (p=0,07). The answers to the question concerning the quality of PE lessons oscillated between the values 2-3 (mostly of good quality, changing quality). Boys presented a little more positive answers than girls, however, the difference between both genders is not statistically significant on the level of 0,05 (p=0,411).

Purpose: to study body resilience to hypoxia of students from different regions enrolled to the specialized universities of Tiumen, with the use of Stange and Genchi tests. Research methods and organization. The study involved 105 students enrolled to three specialized universities in Tiumen, who used to live in urban areas (UA) and rural areas (RA). We studied the parameters of respiratory function by means of Stange and Genchi tests. Results and discussion. The study revealed that young men from rural areas demonstrate higher timed inspiratory capacity according to the results of Stange test than young men from urban areas do. Timed inspiratory and expiratory capacity varied depending on the age of young people, with the maximum peak occurring at the age of 18 and 19 years. Breath-holding capacity decreased when young men reached the first mature age. Conclusion. According to Stange test, students from rural areas demonstrate higher timed inspiratory capacity and volitional effort than the students from urban areas do. It characterizes a high level of non-specific adaptive capacity of their bodies. Physical education requires wide exploitation of a simple, accessible and informative indicator of timed inspiratory and expiratory capacity for objective assessment of respiratory function. We should take into consideration that breath-holding capacity decreases with advancing age.

Background. Given the documented decline in levels of physical activity in early adolescence, promoting physical activity in young people is a priority for health promotion. School physical education (PE) is an important existing network in which participation in physical activity beyond school can be promoted to the captive young people. The objective of current article is to present the protocol for a PE teacher-delivered theory-based trial to promote secondary school students’ participation in physical activity out-of-school contexts. The intervention will be guided by the trans-contextual model explaining the processes by which PE teachers’ support for autonomous motivation in the classroom promotes students’ motivation to engage in out-of-school physical activity. We hypothesize that school students receiving the teacher-delivered intervention to promote autonomous motivation toward physical activity will exhibit greater participation in physical activities outside of school, relative to students receiving a control intervention.Methods. The trial will adopt a waitlist-control design with cluster-randomization by school. PE teachers assigned to the intervention condition will receive a two-week, 12-hour training program comprising basic information on how to promote out-of-school physical activity and theory-based training on strategies to promote students’ autonomous motivation toward physical activity. Teachers assigned to the waitlist control condition will receive an alternative training on how to monitor physical functional capacity in children with special needs. PE teachers (n = 24) from ten schools will apply the intervention program to students (n = 476) in PE classes for one month. Physical activity participation, the primary outcome variable, and psychological mediators from the trans-contextual model will be measured at pre-trial, post-trial, and at one-, three- and six-months post-trial. We will also assess teachers’ autonomy-supportive techniques and behaviours by observation.Discussion. The study will make a unique contribution to the literature by testing a theory-based intervention delivered by PE teachers to promote school students’ participation in out-of-school physical activity. Information will be useful for educators, community stakeholders and policy makers interested in developing programs to promote students’ out-of-school physical activity.

Abstract Goal of this work : checking the influence of the dynamic game (taught in physical education lessons) on the development of motor skills in VIth class middle school students. Materials and methods: The study was conducted over a period of six months, involving 30 students: boys (15) and girls (15), aged between 12 and 13. The evaluation of the athletes’ physical capacity was done by performing the following tests: speed running 50 m, long jump on the spot, resistance running 800 m G / 1000 m B, trunk lifting from lying position to sitting. Given the nature of the study, it did not require the use of sophisticated equipments. Conclusions: Methodical practicing of physical exercises (dynamic games) proves itself more and more successful in terms of growth and normal, harmonical development of children and youth. In terms of motor skills, they have improved, which was revealed by the final testing results. Comparative analysis of the two test results across all samples showed that using dynamic games during the lessons had a positive effect on students. This drove to the effort capacity’s improvment with the parameters that were statistically significant in all the tests.

This article highlights the effectiveness use of small forms of active recreation to increase mental working capacity of primary school students during the school day. It was found that the students of the second and third grades starting from the second lesson a steady tendency to fatigue of the body develops. Especially children's fatigue developed in math lessons, and in particular if they were scheduled for the third or fourth lesson. The duration of the lesson also contributed to the development of fatigue processes in children of this age 45 minutes, instead of the recommended 40 minutes of the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine, because the school bell rang adjusted for all classes 45 minutes Execution of specially selected physical exercises in lessons in the form of a physical education minute or physical education micropause helped reduce the impact of fatigue on the body of children. One of the urgent problems of modern pedagogy is scientific substantiation of rational motor regime of children and adolescents. Studies in recent years suggest that the cause is the most common diseases, physical development disorders and functional state of the body of schoolchildren is increasingly becoming motor insufficiency experienced by the body of children.
