Aim: To investigate the impact of the peculiarities of the organization of students’ motor activity on their health in the learning process.
Materials and Methods: The research involved 164 students (93 men and 71 women) from two higher educational institutions. The research was conducted in 2017-2021 and included carrying-out the comparative analysis of the peculiarities of the organization of physical education in two institutions and the research of their impact on students’ health. The state of students’ health was studied in terms of the indicators of their body length and weight, lung capacity, hand dynamometry, heart rate, blood pressure and level of physical health.
Results: It was found that the main difference in the organization of motor activity of students in the studied institutions is the total number of hours provided for the study “Physical Education” academic subject during the years of attendance: compulsory training sessions are held for 4 years in one institution and for 2 years in the other. It was found that the students whose physical education training sessions were conducted throughout the entire study period had significantly better health indicators; there was an increase in the number of students with average, above-average and high levels of physical health.
Conclusions: The obtained results show that the peculiarities of the organization of motor activity of students in the higher educational institution have a significant impact on their health, which will help improve their future life-sustaining activities.
<p>T</p><p>The article presents the results of the performed analysis of physical health and fitness of students with disabilities during their study at university if they use, in accordance with their medical conditions, the structural and functional technique of adaptive physical education proposed by the authors. The long-term experimental research with the proposed authors’ techniques has shown positive changes in the studied students’ physical health and fitness, which depend on the content and forms of their adaptive physical education. The main directions of improvement of physical health and fitness of students with disabilities during the classes of adaptive physical education are substantiated.</p><p>The obtained results prove that the variety of medical conditions, accompanying disorders, lack of motivation for motor activity require a personal approach to a person with disabilities, selection of an individual path for his/her physical development. The results testify also to integration of students with disabilities into the student environment where they feel comfortable and more confident.</p>
