The essence of using problem-based learning technologies in teaching physical education disciplines

Abstract

This article discusses the direction of improving the quality of training of professional teaching personnel using problem-based learning technologies when conducting physical education classes. The main difference between problem-based and traditional learning is seen in the goals and principles of organizing the educational process. The goal of problem-based learning is to master not only the fundamentals of science, but also the process of acquiring knowledge and scientific facts, and the development of the student’s cognitive and creative abilities. Problem-based learning, like any other teaching method, is not universal, but it is an important part of the modern education system. Physical education is one of those subjects that can implement these approaches in its lessons, and problem-based learning will help achieve the main goal of education and training. This method contributes to the development of the ability to apply one’s knowledge in different situations, helps to study phenomena from different sides and in different aspects, that is, it contributes to the formation of critical thinking.
