Week #1 – Basic concepts of Physical Education

Introduction:

Physical Education has been defined by various authors to a direction toward an emphasis on
lifetime skills. WUEST and BUNCHER(1995) defined physical education as an education
process that uses physical activity as a means to help individuals acquire skills, fitness,
knowledge and attitude that contribute to their optimal development and well-being.

More so, Physical Education, herein after referred to as P.E. is planned, sequential instruction
that promotes lifelong physical activity. It is designed to develop basic abilities.

Leading to the realization of the different concerns as defined above it, most authors have
written three(3) main functions of P.E. 1) biologic 2) integrative and 3) social.

 Objectives:
At the end of the session, the student is expected to:
1. Discuss the importance of physical activities for the enhancement of growth and
development.
2. Identify the objectives and purpose of physical education.

 Pre-test:
 Why is it important for us to study Physical Education?

 Discussion:
Brief history of Physical Education
 Physical education has existed since the earliest stages of humanity, with which to
survive in hostile environment was the primary concern
 Formal physical education was first observed during the ancient times as a component
of military training in the case of the ancient roman citizens.
 P.E. was a form of entertainment for ancient Greece.
 P.E. programs were organized by 700 B.C. at the educational establishment called
Gymnasia.
 Greece laid the foundation for the present Olympic Games which were first held in
776B.C. and continued every four years thereafter.
 Middle Ages (from 400s to 1500s), Physical Education had its dark ages due to
disinterest of the people in physical education.
 Many sports and other physical activities were considered sinful, especially in Europe.
 However, it was during the renaissance period when the interest in greek and Roman
culture was revived. This renaissance period helped to interpret the importance of Physical
Education to the public.
 1700s PE developed significantly as it was promoted in the masses.
 1800s, PE found its way to formal schools in Germany, Sweden, United Kingdom and
America.
 German and Swedish program stressed special importance to Gymnastics and exercise
routines.
 Great Britain is known as the home of outdoor sports which utilized a program borrowed
ideas from all other European sources.
 1990s, the most significant development was the large scale provision of PE programs
for girls and people with disabilities.
 20th century, three philosophies emerge to influence the direction of physical education.

1. Education of the Physical

 Arthur H. Steinhaus – introduced the emphasis on physical fitness and also
emphasized that “all forms of education may develop the mind and spirit of man, but

Bachelor of Science in Information Technology/Information System & Computer Science Department

only physical education can develop his body. The emphasis was predominantly on
health and physical fitness. The development of the body as an end to itself.

2. Education through the Physical

 Jessie Feiring Williams – physical education is “education through the physical”
rather than of the physical. He emphasized that physical education is the sum of
man’s physical activities selected as to kind and conducted as to outcome.
 Thomas Wood – emphasizes the need to replace physical training with physical
education. Physical education must have an aim as broad as education itself, as
noble as inspiring as human life.
 John Dewey – it is “education through the physical” the unique contribution that
physical education has to make for the general education is that of general body
development through physical activities.
 Gulick – a prominent leader in the recreation and outdoor education movement,
emphasized the social and play needs of the youth.
 Hetherington – emphasized the importance of educating the total person physically,
mentally, socially and emotionally by meeting the specific needs and interest of each
age group.
 Rudolph Laban – education “through the physical” includes human movement or
movement education. This philosophy attempts to help students understand the
principles of efficient movements through participation in movement experience.
 Harold M. Barrow – physical education is an education of individual through human
movement where many of the educational objectives are achieved by means of big
muscle activities involving sports, gymnastics, dance and exercise.
3. Education in the Physical
 Spears and Swanson – described education in the physical as education for leisure
time and recreational activities.
 Jay B. Nash – taught that children should be educated for their leisure time activities
as well as for a vocation. Education in the physical is vital link in the chain of health
and well-being.

Basic Goals of Physical Education

1. Physical Skills – the development and refinement of neuro-muscular skill essential for
efficiency of everyday movement as well as for efficient movement in a variety of
activities.
2. Participation – physical skills remain sharp and healthier enhanced through regular
participation in physical activities.
3. Physical fitness – the development of physical fitness and health contributes to
effective living and enjoyment of life.
4. Knowledge – knowledge and understanding of the importance of the physical activities
and how to relate to one’s health and well-being is very important.
5. Attitudes – the attitudes a student has toward physical activity towards his or her feeling
of successful accomplishment in activity influence future participation.

Objectives of Physical Education

1. Physical Development – to be able to maintain a lifelong health and high level of
physical fitness, one should actively participate in physical activities. By engaging in
physical activities one can enhance his growth and development.

2. Social Development – acquisition of desirable social traits through participation in

sports-related activities. Examples of worthwhile traits are: friendliness, cooperation, and
respect for the rights of others.
3. Emotional Development – the informal nature of PE which offers opportunities for self-
expression and emotional mastery. Examples of worthwhile emotional traits that can be
developed through participation in sports-related activities are self-confidence, self-
reliance, courage and determination.
4. Mental Development – stated that through participation in physical education activities,
the individual develops his mental capacities as he learns the mechanical principles
underlying movements, as he acquires knowledge and understanding of rules and
strategies of games and sports and as he discovers ways of improving his movements in
gymnastics and dance.

Purpose of Physical Education

Week #2 – Physical Fitness

Fitness is the ability to carry out daily tasks efficiently with enough physical capacity to cope with
the physical needs of life.
Physical fitness is the primary specific objective in teaching Physical Education. According to
Safrit (Eviza, 2007), it is the ability to carry out daily tasks with vigor and alertness, without
undue fatigue, and with ample energy to enjoy leisure time pursuits and meet unforeseen
emerges.

 Objective:
At the end of the session, the student is expected to:
 Discuss and identify the aspects, importance, components of physical fitness and factors
affecting fitness.

 Pre-test:

 Whenever we say physical fitness or physical activities, what comes in your mind?

 Discussion:
Aspects of Fitness
1. Physical Fitness – refers to the ability of an individual to perform his daily tasks efficiently
without undue fatigue, and has some extra “reserve” in case of emergency.
2. Social Fitness – is to ability to mingle with the different types of people, and with interest
and concern with others.
3. Emotional Fitness – refers to the ability of an individual to control his emotions or
feelings.
4. Mental Fitness – is the ability to cope with the common problems of everyday living.

Importance of Physical Fitness as one of the Four Aspects of Fitness

1. Vitality – muscles are the basis for body action. They increase strength with the activity,
and deteriorate from the lack of it. Fit muscles use less energy to perform same task
leading to an increase in vitality.
2. Posture – A physically fit person is able to maintain his general postural alignment than
one in weak musculature.
3. Strong back – Strong and well-developed lower back muscles can be an aid in
preventing lower back pain in later life.
4. Organic fitness – The efficiency and capacity of the organic system, particularly the
heart and the lungs, are increased through regular, vigorous exercise.
5. Appearance – Fitness is a factor in weight control. Diet and exercise combined are
generally the best approach to be able to maintain proper body proportions.
6. Social relationship – Physical fitness can be a factor in good peer relationship. It offers
many opportunities for social interactions.
7. Mental health – A healthy body helps develop full mental powers. Regular exercise
contributes to the ability to relax and reduce tension.
8. General health – fitness improves general health and is essential for full and vigorous
life.

Components of Physical Fitness

A. Health-Related Physical Fitness
1. Cardiovascular endurance is the ability of the heart and lungs to work together to
provide the needed oxygen and fuel to the body during sustained workloads.

Bachelor of Science in Information Technology/Information System & Computer Science Department

SIKATUNA ST., OLD ALBAY, LEGAZPI CITY
TEL. NO. 7421570

Examples would be jogging, cycling and swimming. The Cooper Run is used most
often to test cardiovascular endurance.
2. Muscular strength is the amount of force a muscle can produce. Examples would
be the bench press, leg press or bicep curl. The push up test is most often used to
test muscular strength.
3. Muscular endurance is the ability of the muscles to perform continuous without
fatiguing. Examples would be cycling, step machines and elliptical machines. The sit
up test is most often used to test muscular endurance.
4. Flexibility is the ability of each joint to move through the available range of motion
for a specific joint. Examples would be stretching individual muscles or the ability to
perform certain functional movements such as the lunge. The sit and reach test is
most often used to test flexibility.
5. Body composition is the amount of fat mass compared to lean muscle mass, bone
and organs. This can be measured using underwater weighing, Skinfold readings,
and bioelectrical impedance. Underwater weighing is considered the “gold standard”
for body fat measurement, however because of the size and expense of the
equipment needed very few places are set up to do this kind of measurement.

B. Skill-Related Physical Fitness

1. Agility – the ability to minimize transition time between one movement pattern and
another.
2. Balance – the ability to control the placement of the bodies’ center of gravity in its
relation to its support base.
3. Coordination – the ability to combine many distinct movements patters into one
precise motion.
4. Power – the ability of a muscular unit or a group of muscular units to apply maximum
force in a minimum amount of time.
5. Speed – the ability to minimize the time cycle of a given movement.
6. Reaction time – is the time required ti initiate a movement of various body part after
the reception of a stimulus.

Factors Affecting Fitness

 Food – correct amount of food and balance diet is the primary factor.
 Rest/Sleep – sufficient rest and enough sleep can affect the fitness of the individual.
In teenagers, at least 8 hours of sleep is good enough.
 Exercise or Physical Activities – proper exercise and daily activities have a major
effect to our body.
