Because they think that the essence of sports is the education of personality. Then what is sports? The elements of sports are teamwork, tenacious struggle, perseverance and respect for honor. These are all indicators of a person's socialization, and the core of sports is personality shaping.
So what kind of influence does physical education class have on students' health? Let's find out.
First, the influence of sports on the intellectual and physical development of teenagers.
1. Pavlov school's research proves that people with strong neural processes can concentrate under a fairly strong additional stimulus, while people with weak neural processes can't concentrate under the same conditions. People with strong and flexible neural processes have large perceptual span, people with weak and inflexible neural processes have small perceptual span, and people with balanced neural processes are not easily distracted. At the same time, the study of school physical education shows that proper physical exercise can not only cultivate students' good ideological and moral character, but also benefit students' physical health, and is also an important factor and means to promote students' intellectual development.
2. In China, children's physical quality and psychological quality are worrying, and children's physical quality has sounded the alarm. According to the survey of teenagers' physical health behavior in China, less than 30% students like to do online chatting and games, watch TV and go out to exercise in their spare time during rest and holidays. Children's physique has been declining continuously, and the most typical results are obesity and myopia. In recent 20 years, the level of children's mental health in China has been declining, and the problems of psychological and communication barriers, internet addiction and suicide have increased year by year.
Teenagers are in a period of positive growth, which is the best time to seize physical exercise. Adolescence is a new starting point of life. It is very important for children's life to actively participate in physical exercise activities, form the habit of physical exercise and learn scientific fitness methods.
4. The evaluation index of American schools for students is to guide students to pay attention to sports generally, which is worth learning from in China. In the multiple evaluation system of college entrance examination in the United States, a student who performs well in the middle school sports team may get 40 points, while a student who gets full marks in the college entrance examination only gets 25 points, which shows that American schools attach importance to sports. This emphasis on process evaluation, real athletic ability, and the combination with university training goals make every student take part in at least one kind of sports training in middle school.
Second, the positive effects of sports on students' mental health
Health has always been the goal pursued by human beings and the requirement of social development. With the development of history and the continuous progress of human civilization, people's requirements for health are not limited to the concept of disease-free body. The four-dimensional health concept put forward by the World Health Organization clearly adds sociological categories such as "social adaptation" and "moral health" in addition to physical health and mental health. However, there is no way to quantify the standard of mental health. People generally say that mental health means keeping physical, intellectual and emotional consistency with other people's psychology, so that individual psychology can develop to the best state. People have long recognized the important role of sports in maintaining and promoting people's mental health. Ancient Greece, the birthplace of the Olympics, has long regarded physical exercise as a necessary means to enhance people's physique and cultivate people's will quality and psychological endurance. The word "broad-minded and obese" in China's "PolyU" means that people with mental health are healthy; On the contrary, healthy people are also beneficial to mental health. A large number of studies show that physical exercise can not only enhance physical fitness, cultivate the quality of will, but also promote people's mental health. Physical exercise is an effective means to improve mental health with low economic expenditure, low risk and few side effects, which has many positive effects on students' mental health.
1, physical exercise helps to promote the development of students' intelligence.
Exercise is an active activity process. In this process, athletes should not only pay close attention, but also observe, remember, think and imagine purposefully. This can effectively improve the human central nervous system, enhance the excitement and inhibition of the cerebral cortex, thus strengthening the conversion process of the excitement and inhibition of the nervous system, thereby improving the balance and accuracy of the cerebral cortex nervous system, promoting the development of human perception, and improving the flexibility, coordination and reaction speed of athletes' brain thinking and imagination. Physical exercise can also improve and develop human perception of space and movement, make proprioception, gravity perception, touch and speed more accurate and agile, and improve the tolerance of brain cells to work. For students, after a long period of study, that is, after mental work, proper physical exercise is conducive to their breathing, blood circulation and the alternation of nerve cell excitement and inhibition, which is conducive to the healthy development of students' psychological abilities such as attention, imagination, memory and thinking analysis, and makes them emotionally stable, cheerful and tired. These non-intellectual components have a good role in promoting students' intellectual development.
2. Sports can improve students' self-awareness and self-confidence.
The principles of "faster, higher and stronger" and "openness, fairness and justice" are the goals advocated by sports, and it has been recognized by the world that sports can cultivate and shape good personality psychology. To participate in sports, we must abide by the rules of the competition, overcome difficulties, and restrain and standardize some of our own behaviors, so as to give full play to our potential in the competition and cherish our right to win. At the same time, everyone who participates in sports has the obligation to let his opponent do his best, express advanced thoughts and aspirations of human beings such as unity, friendship, peace and progress through sports, temper his own character in fair competition, make a choice between success and failure, honor and shame, competition and concession, individuals and the motherland, and express his emotional attitude and values in the choice. This process is very conducive to cultivating and shaping good personality psychology. The data shows that students who often participate in sports can seek comfort and satisfaction in sports, and their overall mental outlook and self-confidence are good.
3. Exercise can adjust students' mood and promote happiness.
Sports, especially sports that you like and are good at, can make people feel happy. Therefore, taking part in sports activities can make students have fun from it, so as to cheer up their spirits, cultivate their sentiments, relieve their worries, anxiety, loneliness, inferiority and other bad emotions, and keep them in a positive emotional state. In addition, physical exercise can alleviate nervous system diseases caused by tension and depression, so it can improve and treat students with mild neurasthenia.
4. Physical education can improve the interpersonal relationship between students.
With the rapid development of science and technology, knowledge economy and information technology, the world is getting smaller and smaller. Economic globalization makes people's communication in politics, economy and culture more and more important. The transformation of production mode brought by modern high technology makes the individualization of labor increasingly prominent, which leads to the lack of emotional communication between people and the alienation of interpersonal relationship. Some experts pointed out that the most important psychological adaptation is the adaptation to interpersonal relationship, and interpersonal relationship is one of the important factors affecting a person's mental health. In daily life, we can easily find that people with good interpersonal relationships are always happy, energetic and interested in everything, so they live a very comfortable life. People with average or bad interpersonal relationships are often listless and depressed, and there is always a lack of fun in life. And sports can change this phenomenon. Because the competitive and group nature of sports provide opportunities for interpersonal communication and affinity for the formation of fierce competition between people. In sports, a gesture, a look and an action can directly or indirectly convey information. You can communicate with each other without words and find like-minded bosom friends. Students can overcome loneliness, forget troubles and pains, coordinate interpersonal relationships, expand social contacts and improve social adaptability in sports. In addition, the collectivity of sports requires participants to communicate, trust and encourage each other. Only by mutual understanding, close cooperation and full development of team spirit can participants achieve good results. Therefore, for eccentric and unhappy students, participating in sports can help them improve their interpersonal relationships, help them re-recognize their own values, build up their self-confidence, and thus form a sound personality.
5. Physical exercise can reduce stress reaction and eliminate fatigue.
Physical exercise can reduce the number and sensitivity of adrenergic receptors, so it can reduce stress response. Regular physical exercise can also reduce the heart rate and blood pressure, and reduce the physiological effects of specific stressors, so physical exercise can exercise people's will and increase their psychological resilience. Experiments show that some people with high stress response are much better at dealing with stress situations than those who have not received any training methods after walking or jogging to prevent stress.
Fatigue is a comprehensive symptom related to human physiological and psychological factors. Studies have shown that when a person is emotionally negative during exercise or the task requirements exceed his personal ability, both physical and psychological fatigue will soon occur. However, if you are in a good mood and maintain moderate exercise intensity during exercise, you can alleviate and delay fatigue. Regular physical exercise can improve physiological functions such as maximum cardiac output, vital capacity and maximum muscle strength, and can also alleviate and delay fatigue. In addition, some studies have pointed out that physical exercise can promote the brain to secrete endorphins. This chemical has the same effect on human body as morphine, which can make people feel gratified and reduce pain. The euphoria caused by endorphins can also reduce the degree of negative emotions such as depression, anxiety and confusion.
6. Physical education can cultivate students' strong will and establish a sense of accomplishment.
Will quality refers to a person's courage, toughness, self-control, courage, toughness and initiative. Will quality is not only manifested in the process of overcoming difficulties, but also cultivated in the process of overcoming difficulties. Courage, tenacity and a strong sense of accomplishment are the basic qualities that modern people should have. Modern students attach great importance to the value of life and enhance personality charm, and sports has unique conditions in this respect, because in sports, it is necessary to constantly overcome objective difficulties (such as changes in climate and environment, limitations and accidents of physical quality and ability, etc.). ) and supervisor difficulties (such as nervousness, fear, depression, fatigue, etc.). ). The more students can overcome difficulties in the process of exercise, the more they can cultivate good will quality. This makes physical education always a cause that has great influence and concern on students on campus. When students participate in sports and constantly overcome and surpass themselves in sports, so that their physiological functions, physical quality and sports skills are enhanced and improved, they will have a sense of self-achievement and emotional experience, and they will feel happy, excited and happy, so that students can re-recognize themselves, grasp themselves and improve themselves. Therefore, the effect of sports is very beneficial to the healthy growth of modern students.
Third, mental health is conducive to exercise.
Herbert, M.D., University of Southern California, once did an experiment: 30 students suffering from tension insomnia were randomly divided into three groups: group A took 400 mg carbamate sedative, and group B took no medicine and participated in sports happily. Group C didn't take medicine but was forced to take part in some sports that he didn't like. The experimental results show that group B has the best exercise effect, followed by group A and group C. This group of experiments shows that relaxing exercise is better than taking drugs, and psychological factors in exercise have obvious influence on exercise effect and fitness medical effect. This situation is particularly obvious in competitive competitions. Athletes who are psychologically healthy enough in major competitions are often quick-thinking, focused, clear-sighted, fast and accurate, which is conducive to the high-level play of their competitive ability.
1. Cultivate students' clear fitness goals and strong fitness desires, set sports goals that are in line with their personal abilities, and constantly improve their sense of self-efficacy. Self-efficacy is students' judgment on whether they can achieve the specified performance goals in the process of engaging in and completing a certain sport. Sports efficiency will not only affect students' persistence in sports, but also affect their efforts in sports. For example, two students who have no difference in physical ability will have different performances when playing the same sport. Students with high self-efficacy can maintain abundant energy and vitality in sports and are not discouraged when encountering difficulties and setbacks; However, people with low self-efficacy tend to underestimate their abilities, get discouraged easily in the face of difficulties and setbacks, and lose the ability to solve problems. Therefore, before preparing for sports, students should have an eager fitness mood and the consciousness and enthusiasm to actively participate in sports, get rid of and avoid the "passive state of being rebellious", eliminate distractions in sports, and strive to concentrate on how to breathe and master the correct fitness methods.
2. Listen to music before exercise and try to make exercise relaxed and enjoyable. You can also find classmates or close friends to participate in sports, encourage each other and create a happy atmosphere. At the same time, we should choose some sports that interest us and try to combine sports with entertainment.
3. Understand and master psychological adjustment methods and constantly adjust your emotions, moods and will. For example, take a photo in front of the mirror before running, arrange your hair and collar, stretch your arms, and consciously touch your bulging muscles. When you see that your face is well and your muscles are strong, your spirit will immediately cheer up. And if you see yourself pale, black eyes and depressed, you should think: I will feel good when I am outdoors. I am not the kind of person who is depressed and easily surrendered by emotions. This is a positive psychological adjustment.
Four, physical education teachers and other related personnel
Healthy physical education is the general goal of school physical education, which has been recognized by the education sector. It seems a bit serious for young students to talk about health blindly. Many students take an active part in sports because they love sports. Exercise can bring them happiness and make them relax after intense study. It can be seen that the function of sports is not limited to promoting health, but also has the function of leisure and entertainment. In fact, getting happiness in sports is the original motivation for people to participate in sports. At the same time, only when you are happy in exercise can exercise become a habit and promote health. Therefore, we believe that school physical education should be further improved into "healthy sports, happy sports and lifelong sports". In specific physical education teaching, physical education depends on and restricts students' mental health, which urges physical education teachers to re-examine traditional physical education teaching and physical exercise on a higher platform, renew their concepts and knowledge, strive to improve and perfect themselves, and strengthen the research on learning situation and teaching content.
1. Physical education teachers should establish a new "lifelong sports concept" and implement school physical education closely related to social progress and demand. The concept and principle of lifelong physical education should run through and be embodied in the teaching process. On the premise of giving full play to students' dominant position, teachers must give full play to students' theme spirit, respect students' dominant position in teaching, not only teach students more sports content, but also teach students how to learn sports methods, improve students' interest in physical exercise, cultivate their good habits of lifelong physical exercise, and strive to make students change passive sports into active sports, so as to create conditions for them to continue physical exercise and independent physical exercise after entering the society.
2. Physical education teachers should guide students to choose their favorite projects according to their own physical, psychological, hobbies and skills, and help students to make practical exercise plans. Judging from the ideological, systematic and scientific nature of physical education teaching, it is not only the needs of quality education and students' personality development, but also the needs of improving teaching effect and cultivating students' sound personality to implement targeted classification exercises and guidance according to learning conditions.
3. Physical education should teach students to deal with the relationship between "body" and "morality". Fundamentally speaking, mental health is a moral education problem. Physical education teachers should not only teach students sports skills, but also care about students' thoughts, emotions, personality, psychology and many other issues. We should consciously cultivate students' brave and tenacious will quality, enhance their psychological and social adaptability, and make them develop healthily and harmoniously in an all-round way.
4. Physical education should help students to deal with the relationship between quality and quantity. In order to achieve the goal of psychological transformation, exercise must have certain intensity, quality and time requirements, and the amount of exercise should follow the principle of gradual progress from small to large. At the same time, make students understand the indications and contraindications of sports, constantly grasp the law of interaction between mental health and sports, and use healthy psychology to ensure the effect of healthy sports; Use exercise to adjust people's psychological state and promote mental health. At the same time, efforts should be made to combine physical exercise with sports health care and medical supervision, so as to get twice the result with half the effort.
