Abstract

The paper considers the feasibility of using the methodological tool, in the discipline of physical education is a diary of student self-control. The main task of the educational process in higher education institutions is to supply the state with highly qualified specialists. The directions of construction of a modern higher school should have features of efficiency, perfection, rationality in the choice of ways to implement these plans. The attitude of a young specialist to physical education classes, to an active lifestyle, to additional knowledge that will help determine the functional state of the body and its systems, to determine the state of physical training is one component to the fundamental foundation in the student's mind of fashion for health, healthy life's style. The paper provides views and interpretations of different people about the benefits of time and effort spent on systematic research and recording of other personal data of the student. The main arguments against the introduction of a diary of self-control in the educational process is a busy schedule, the limit of free time, the inaccuracy of the research results. Activation of motives for involvement and introduction of new methods is an integral part of teachers` work. Motivations will help to direct everyone's efforts to a greater positive and responsible attitude of young people to the culture of health. The statistics provided in the work show the critical state of health of Ukrainians, the small percentage of the population involved in physical education and sports. Compared to European countries, Ukraine is really more declarative in this area than practical. To change this state of affairs is a priority for public authorities and teachers of various educational institutions. And it may happen that one of the factors in building a model of a modern educated specialist will be a diary of self-control, which will provide knowledge that will be available in the future.
