Swim training system concept for students of higher education institutions

Abstract

Introduction. An important scientific and applied issue of contemporary physical education in higher education institutions is the substantiation of a systematic approach to swim training of students. This one must to take into account existing experience and current requirements, student-centered process and the objectivity of the providing criteria. The research purpose is substantiation of the swim training system concept for students of higher education institutions. The research stuff and methods are theoretical analysis and generalization, documentary stuff study, sociological survey methods, systems analysis, historical and logical methods. The research results. The concept key factor is the input information. It is divided into several elements. The first element is determined by significant social importance. The subjective and objective significance of swim training are much close to the subject of scientific cognition. Each of the output information elements is responsible for the content and direction of individual elements at the level of students` swim training system. The basic concept block is swim training system for students of higher education institutions. There was determined the need of distinguish between two parts of this system. The first one of these (process) contains a large number of elements (components) that allow understanding the essence of this system, the second one has a resulting role. The result of swim training concept for students of higher education institutions in physical education conditions is the availability of output information. The basic functions of the swim training system of students of higher education institutions are the following: socializing, communicative, motivational, progressive, systematic, self-affirmation, health-corrective and applied. The principles of polystructure and differentiation, relevance and thoroughness, resourcefulness and motivation, individuality and expediency, dynamism and progression, control and manageability have been considered as special principles for students` swim training system of higher education institutions. Conclusions. At the theoretical and methodological level there was proved the possibilities of creating the preconditions for students` swim training of higher education institutions in the conditions of physical education. These possibilities consist of the proposed concept that directly contains an input information description, substantiation and characteristics of the swim training system for students of higher education institutions (with the separation of process and result parts) and output information.
