Health-Improving Model of Physical Education of the First-Year Students with Non-Sport Specialties with the Use of Nordic Walking

According to modern views, the educational process, on the one hand, correlates with its socially significant content, on the other hand it is stipulated by the student’s experience as a subject of the educational process and native bearer of own culture. In recent years, people are increasingly talking about physical education not only as a social phenomenon, but also as a stable personal quality. Therefore, education at the university is focused on the formation of the student as a subject of own physical education. Physical education, being one of the faces of the general human culture, in many respects determines the behavior of the individual in school, at work, at home, during communication, and also contributes to the solution of social and economic, educational and health problems (Baronenko, 2009; Barchukov, 2007; Buslakov, 2004). Modern scientific literature is full of data showing the significant role of physical education in the improvement of human health and the development of healthy lifestyle. However, there are almost no data describing the actual implementation of the curriculum of physical education at the university and its real contribution to the dynamics of the level of physical development and health of students, in the formation of motivational and value aspect of personal student’s physical education at the various stages of training. The dynamics of the formation of students’ physical education during the process of their development of this type of culture through the discipline “Physical education” is still not revealed (Egorychev, 2006). Students’ attitude toward physical education and sport is one of the most urgent social and educational problems. Physical education plays a significant role in the professional activity of the bachelor student and specialist, because their work is usually connected with a significant strain of attention, vision, intense intellectual activity and low mobility (Gendin, 2004). Self-cognition is the necessary prerequisite for the specialist activity in contemporary influences of the environment. Formation of the physical education of the future specialist is impossible without the ability to rationally correct own state by means of physical training and motor activity. Theoretical and methodological and practical sections of the curriculum of the discipline “Physical education” are the most difficult for implementation in the educational process, so it is extremely important to obtain the data that is not currently presented about how the actual study of the discipline “Physical education” influences on the actual formation of the personal students’ physical education in order to identify ways to improve the educational process as a whole (Ilyinich, 2005; Kobyakov, 2004).
