Abstract

Zadnjih nekoliko godina često čujemo kako se djeca ne kreću dovoljno, kako su zakinuta za fizičke aktivnosti i kako zbog takva nezdravog stila života ta ista djeca nailaze na različite probleme ili poteškoće u razvoju. Iako je svijest o navedenom sve veća, ipak su roditelji usmjereni prema tome da djeci pruže aktivnosti koje će im biti potrebne u budućnosti, poput robotike, informatike ili stranog jezika.
Cilj ovog rada i istraživanja jest ukazati na to koliko integracija tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture može utjecati na usvajanje stranog jezika, uz pretpostavku da djeca bolje usvajaju gradivo ako su u proces učenja uključene i kineziološke vježbe.
Obratit ćemo pozornost na to koliko je važno uklopiti kineziološke metode kao sredstvo za edukaciju, što znači usvajati gradivo kroz pokret i vježbu, te na koji način prilagoditi program i aktivnosti kako bismo tjelesnu i zdravstvenu kulturu adaptirali i uklopili u program koji odgovara potrebama svakog djeteta.
Osvrnut ćemo se i na različite stilove učenja, tj. kako i oni utječu na način na koji djeca usvajaju nove vještine i znanja. Posebno je naglašena takozvana TPR metoda poučavanja, koja dokazano poboljšava učinkovitost usvajanja novih pojmova stranog jezika kroz pokret. Proveden je eksperiment s paralelnim skupinama ispitanika, na temelju 16 djece. Istraživanje se smatra uspješnim jer je potvrđena pretpostavka da djeca bolje uče uz integraciju tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture.
Iz rezultata možemo zaključiti kako integracija tjelesne i zdravstvene kulture u poučavanju stranog jezika, ima veliku prednost jer je, prema rezultatima istraživanja, eksperimentalna skupina koja je učila uz kineziološke metode ostvarila bolje rezultate u znanju naučenih pojmova, ali je isto tako pokazala veću zainteresiranost, bolju koncentraciju, bolju međusobnu suradnju i veću motiviranost, za razliku od kontrolne skupine.

Abstract (english)

It’s not an unpopular opinion that in times like these, children are less active, they don’t have the opportunity to move and are deprived of physical activities. This leads to an unhealthy way of life, and also it affects its development.
Thou we are more aware of this problem, yet still the parents want their children to take extra classes such as robotics, computers or a foreign language class.
The purpose of this paper and research is to point out how much kinesiology can influence the acquisition of a foreign language, assuming that children learn better if they’re taught using kinesiological methods of teaching.
Also, we’ll explain why incorporate kinesiology as a method of education, what it means to learn through movement and exercise and how to adapt the program and activities according to the needs of each child.
It has also been explained the difference between different learning styles, as well as how they affect the way children acquire new skills and knowledge. The TPR method of teaching is especially mentioned, since it improves the efficiency of acquiring new concepts of a foreign language through movement. An experiment was conducted with parallel groups of subjects, based on 16 children. The research is considered successful because it started with the assumption that children learn better with the integration of physical and health culture, which has been confirmed.
From the results we can conclude that the integration of physical education and health in foreign language teaching has a great advantage because according to the research, the control group that studied with kinesiological methods achieved better results in knowledge of learned concepts, but also showed greater interest, better concentration, better cooperation between themselves and motivation.
