Abstract

U ovom radu ispituju se i analiziraju stavovi odgojitelja o cjeloživotno obrazovanju s naglaskom na stavove o dodatnoj edukaciji u području kineziologije. U teorijskom dijelu razlaže se pojam kineziologije i njen razvoj kao znanosti. Spominje se važnost kineziološke aktivnosti te njen pozitivan utjecaj na cjelokupan razvoj djeteta. S obzirom na to, jako je važno da odgojitelji razvijaju svijest o potrebi vlastitog usavršavanja te unaprjeđuju znanja i vještine koje su im potrebne za kvalitetno provođenje kinezioloških aktivnosti. Vezano za odabrani istraživački problem, provedeno je istraživanje na uzorku od 132 ispitanika pomoću internetskog anketnog upitnika. Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da odgojitelji prepoznaju važnost tjelesne aktivnosti djece te da imaju pozitivan stav o vlastitom cjeloživotnom obrazovanju i učenju. Iako se samo 13,6% ispitanika dodatno educiralo u području kineziologije, od toga 70% samoinicijativno, pozitivna je činjenica da se čak 78,5% odgojitelja izjasnilo da bi se željelo educirati u ovom području kada bi za to imali mogućnosti. Također, više od pola ispitanih odgojitelja (68,9%) se izjasnilo da im predškolska ustanova u kojoj rade ne omogućava financijsku podršku za dodatnu edukaciju te se slažu da bi trebalo dati veću važnost provođenju kinezioloških aktivnosti u dječjim vrtićima.

Abstract (english)

This paper examines and analyses the attitudes of kindergarten teachers about lifelong learning with an emphasis on attitudes about additional education in the field of kinesiology. The theoretical part explains the concept of kinesiology and its development as a science. Nevertheless, the importance of kinesiological activities and its positive impact on the overall
development of the child is mentioned. Given this, it is very important that kindergarten teachers develop awareness of the need for self-improvement and improve the knowledge and skills they need for quality implementation of kinesiological activities. Regarding the selected research problem, a survey was conducted on a sample of 132 respondents using an online survey questionnaire. The results of the research point out that kindergarten teachers recognize the importance of children's physical activity and that they have a positive attitude towards their own lifelong education and learning. Although only 13.6% of respondents received additional education in the field of kinesiology, of which 70% on their own initiative, it is a positive fact that as many as 78.5% of kindergarten teachers stated that they would like to be educated in this field if they had the opportunity. Also, more than half of the surveyed kindergarten teachers (68.9%) stated that the preschool institution where they work does not provide financial support for additional education and agree that more importance
should be given to the implementation of kinesiological activities in kindergartens.
