EDUCATION FOR HUMAN MOVEMENT

EDUCATION FOR HUMAN MOVEMENT

Physical education as education for and through human movement, therefore, seeks many of the same educational goals as those earlier theories sought, but the emphasis has shifted to the study of human movement as the unique mission of physical education. The human movement point of view has resulted in a new definition of physical education-a definition based on the concept of movement education as a lifelong process of which physical education is a component. Physical education is that part of movement education which has been designated as a responsible, educational program (subject) in a school curriculum. Bette J. Logsdon and associates, proponents of the human movement approach, express the goals of physical education as they reflect the psychomotor, the affective, and the cognitive domains of learning:

Physical education should provide experiences that improve the ability of the learner to:

① Move skillfully demonstrating versatile, effective, and efficient movement in situations requiring either planned or unplanned responses.

② Become aware of the meaning, significance, feeling, and joy of movement both as a performer and as an observer.

③ Gain and apply the knowledge that governs human movement.

Physical Education is that integral part of total education which contributes to the development of each individual through the natural medium of physical activity-human movement. It is a carefully planned sequence of learning experiences designed to fulfill the growth, development, and behavior needs of each student. It encourages and assists each student to:

DEVELOP the skills of movement, the knowledge of how and why one moves, and the ways in which movement may be organized.

LEARN to move skillfully and effectively through exercise, games, sports, dance, and aquatics.

ENRICH his understanding of the concepts of space, time, and force related to movement.

EXPRESS culturally approved patterns of personal behavior and interpersonal relationships in and through games, sports, and dance.

CONDITION the heart, lungs, muscles, and other organic systems of the body to meet daily and emergency demands.

ACQUIRE an appreciation of and a respect for good physical condition (fitness), a functional posture, and a sense of personal well-being.

DEVELOP an interest and a desire to participate in lifetime recreational sports.

The human movement approach to physical education, therefore, embraces portions of both of the earlier theories and molds them into yet another concept of physical education, based on the study of the science of human movement.

What does sports mean to modern people? An escape from a tiring daily life, a catalyst for a smooth social life, a way to maintain a healthy life, sports-related activities have become a part of modern people’s lives in some form. They can relieve daily fatigue and stress by watching their favorite sports games, and they can confirm their national identity through national competitions such as the World Cup. The advancement of modern technology has made it possible to watch broadcasts at home or at work through mobile devices as if they were watching live at the stadium without having to go to the stadium. There are many companies that specialize in streaming sports broadcasts, and sports consumers only need to choose a service provider that suits their tastes. Recently, among streaming companies, Sonokong TV has been receiving great reviews from consumers for its top broadcast quality and real-time broadcasting by continuously improving customer complaints.
