Abstract

Bu çalışma, ilkokul öğrencilerinin teneffüs ve beden eğitimi (BE) dersindeki orta-şiddetli fiziksel aktivite (OŞFA) düzeylerini incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmada nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden tarama modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın örneklemini, 2022-2023 eğitim öğretim yılında Aksaray/Eskil’de ilkokul 4. sınıfa devam eden 4 öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Veriler davranışsal gözlem metodu aracılığıyla, “Fitness Eğitimi Gözlem Formu” kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Öğrencilerin gün boyu teneffüs aktiviteleri ve bir ders uzunluğundaki BE ders aktiviteleri 4 hafta ara ile 3 kez gözlemlenmiştir. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, Friedman, Wilcoxon ve Mann Whitney U testi yapılmıştır. Araştırma bulguları incelendiğinde; teneffüs ve BE dersinde öğrencilerin en fazla ayakta durma davranışı gösterdiği tespit edilmiştir. Öğrencilerin OŞFA düzeyi Dünya Sağlık Örgütünün tavsiye ettiği değerin (%50) altında ölçülmüştür. Teneffüs ve BE dersi için farklı zamanlarda alınan 3 ölçüm friedman analizi ile incelenmiş ve öğrencilerin OŞFA düzeylerinde anlamlı farklılık görülmemiştir. BE dersi ve teneffüs OŞFA ölçümleri Mann Whitney U testi ile incelenmiş ve anlamlı farklılığa rastlanmamıştır. Kız ve erkek öğrencilerin OŞFA düzeylerinin yakın olduğu görülmüştür. Araştırmanın sonucunda; öğrencilerin teneffüs ve BE dersinde OŞFA düzeylerinin benzer olduğu ve beklenenin biraz altında kaldığı gözlemlenmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarından hareketle; BE derslerinde öğrencilerin hareket düzeyini artıracak içeriklere yer verilmesi, teneffüslerde oyun oynamaya imkân verecek çeşitlilikte oyun alanları planlanmalı ve teneffüs sürelerinin artırılması önerilebilir.

MODERATE VIGOROUS PHYSICAL ACTIVITY LEVELS OF PRIMARY SCHOOL STUDENTS: BREAK TIME AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION LESSON

Abstract

This study was carried out to examine the moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) levels of primary school students during break time (BT) and physical education lessons (PEL). The survey model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the research. The sample of the study consisted of 4 students attending the 4th grade of primary school in Aksaray/Eskil in the 2022-2023 academic year. The data were collected through the behavioral observation method, using the “System for Observing Fitness Instruction Time (SOFIT)”. Students' BT activities during the day and PEL activities of one lesson were observed 3 times with an interval of 4 weeks. Friedman, Wilcoxon and Mann-Whitney-U test were used in the analysis of the data. The MVPA level of the students was measured below the value recommended by the WHO (50%). Three measurements taken at different times for the BT and PEL were examined and no significant difference was observed in the MVPA levels of the students. PEL and BT MVPA were examined and no significant difference was found. It was observed that the MVPA levels of boy and girl students were close. As a result of the research, the MVPA levels of the students during the BT and PEL were similar and slightly below expectations. It can be suggested to include content that will increase the level of movement of students in PEL, to plan playgrounds that will allow playing games during BT, and to increase the BT.
