Views of female students of the police and criminal justice academy of the subject of special physical education

Abstract

An anonymous poll was conducted among a group of 30 female first-year students of the Police and Criminal Justice Academy following the end of the Special Physical Education I course and completion of pre-examination tasks in the 2008/09 school year. The aim of this research was to find out the views of female first-year students regarding the subject of Special Physical Education, which belongs to the group of general-professional subjects. The analysis of the poll results indicates that a large number of subjects holds that the subject in question is very significant or that it is among subjects of significance (100%), 26.67% find that the number of practical training hours is average, and 73.33 % of students think that the number of practical training hours should exceed 4 lessons a week. The subjects also expressed an important view that the number of theory lessons was satisfactory (90 %) and that lessons should take place during both semesters, i.e. throughout the school year (93.33 %). The students said that they preferred (86.67 %) the special part of the curriculum (hitting, levers, throws…). As for the students' views related to achievement expectations in the observed subject, it can be inferred that 66.67 % subjects achieved results equal to or above their expectations, whereas 33.33 % failed to achieve the desired results. A large number of subjects (80.00 %) were of the opinion that the teachers and assistants engaged on this subject were extremely correct or just correct, whereas 13.33 % of them stated that they were incorrect or that their conduct was disappointing. Although the obtained results can be said to possess a low level of external reliability, because they apply to only one generation of students, they provide sufficient indication that there is a need to revise the current organizational structure of the subject of SPE and introduce 4 hours of practical training a week and ensure training during both semesters.

Anonimno je anketirano 30 studenata I godine Kriminalističko-policijske akademije ženskog pola, a nakon završene nastave na predmetu Specijalno fizičko obrazovanje I i predispitnih obaveza iz navedenog predmeta u školskoj 2008/09. godini. Cilj ovog istraživanja je bio da se utvrde stavovi studentkinja I godine o nastavnom predmetu Specijalno fizičko obrazovanje, koji je iz grupe stručnih opštih predmeta. Analizom rezultata dobijenih anketiranjem uočava se da veliki broj ispitanica ima mišljenje da je nastavni predmet SFO izuzetno značajan, ili da spada u značajnije predmete (100%); da je broj časova praktične nastave prosečan smatra 26,67% studentkinja, a da broj časova praktične nastave potrebno je da bude veći od 4 časa nedeljno smatra 73,33 % studentkinja. Značajan je stav ispitanika da je fond teoretske nastave zadovoljavajući (90,00%) i da nastavu SFO-a treba realizovati u oba semestra u toku školske godine (93,33%). Od nastavnih sadržaja SFO-a ispitanice najviše vole (86,67%) specijalni deo (udarci, poluge, bacanja...). Kada su u pitanju stavovi studentkinja o očekivanim rezultatima SFO-a, može se zaključiti da je 66,67% postiglo više ili u skladu sa očekivanjem, dok kod 33,33% ta očekivanja nisu ispunjena u odnosu na željeno. Veliki broj ispitanica, njih 48 (80%), mišljenja je da su nastavnici i saradnici na predmetu izuzetno korektni, ili korektni, dok je kod njih 4 (13,33%) prevladao stav da su nekorektni, odnosno da su ih, svojim odnosom, razočarali. Iako se za dobijene stavove može reći da imaju mali nivo eksterne relijabilnosti, jer pripadaju samo jednoj generaciji studentkinja, dovoljno su indikativni i upućuju na potrebu revidiranja trenutnog organizacionog oblika nastave SFO na KPA u smeru povećanja zatupljenosti praktične nastave na četiri puta nedeljno, kao i na izučavanje predmeta u toku oba semestra.
