Study of the development of interest in sports among students of secondary vocational education (on the example of LB PNRPU)

this article presents the theoretical and practical foundations of the problem of developing interest in sports among students of secondary vocational education (SVE). The author's questionnaire was developed and the analysis of the results of its application among groups of students of vocational education and training was carried out in order to study their interest in sports. The article also offers recommendations to physical education teachers on optimizing the organization of classes in order to solve the above problem. From WHO research, it is known that about 1.8 billion people lack physical activity, especially among adolescents: 81% aged 11-17 years do not reach the recommended levels. Teenage girls are less active than boys (85% vs. 78%). Lack of physical activity in adolescence can negatively affect future health, which requires a comprehensive approach that includes society, educational institutions and families. The purpose of the article is to identify ways to increase interest in sports among students of vocational schools. Tasks include literature analysis, the development of a questionnaire to explore interest in sports and the study of students' attitudes to physical education. The novelty of the research lies in the creation of an author's questionnaire and the analysis of its results among students of the SVE LB PNRPU to optimize the organization of physical education classes. The research methodology is based on the analysis of literary sources and a sociological survey. The theoretical basis was information about the principles of the introduction of sports culture in Ancient Greece, the reaction to this in the observations of ancient Greek philosophers, as well as research by modern scientists on trends in the development of interest in sports among students of vocational schools. The empirical basis was the compilation and conduct of a sociological survey (author's questionnaire) among students of the SVE LB PNRPU within the framework of an empirical study. These research results can be useful for physical education teachers when working with students of vocational education and training in order to develop students' interest in sports and increase their physical activity. Based on the results of the analysis of the theoretical base, as well as the results of a sociological survey (author's questionnaire) among students of the SVE LB PNRPU, the main reasons for low and high interest in sports among young people, in particular, students of the SVE, were identified. Recommendations have also been drawn up for physical education teachers on how to increase interest in physical development among secondary vocational education students.
