Summary of the Profile
General Description:
Objective(s) of a study programme:
The aim of the study programme is to educate Masters of Education who are able to perceive and critically assess global and national trends in physical education and sport development, to organise pedagogical activities of one’s own and subordinate employees with regard to these tendencies; by applying interdisciplinary knowledge and modern methods of research to creatively manage physical (self-) education and development of people of different ages and physical mastership skills.
Learning outcomes:
Generic competencies developed:
The following general competences are being formed: knowing how to learn: a student becomes an independent individual who is responsible for his / her learning, able to raise and achieve learning goals, understanding importance of lifelong learning; communication: a student knows how to communicate verbally and non-verbally; to obtain, understand and render information; cognition: mastering new subjects, a student experiences a joy of cognition; social: a student becomes more conscious, aware, responsible, active, respecting other people; initiative and creativity: obtained knowledge, experience enable self-confidence in one’s own creative capacities; personal: a student becomes a dignified, self-confident, honest, responsible, not afraid of facing difficulties, knowing how to cope with difficulties, objectively assessing himself/ herself and his/ her own behaviour person.
Subject specific competencies developed:
The following subject-related competences are being developed: selection, creation and application of effective educational technologies in physical education; selection, creation and application of management measures for physical education and sports organisations; designing and implementation of performance strategies for physical education and sports organisations; selection, creation and application of sport training technologies for individuals with different physical mastership skills; selection, creation and application of strategies for physical education and health education.
Learning outcomes:
The aim of the study programme Physical and Sport Education is to educate a specialist who is able to understand and critically assess global and national trends in physical education and sport development, to organise pedagogical activities of one’s own and subordinate employees with regard to these trends; while referring to interdisciplinary knowledge and modern research methods, to creatively manage physical (self-) education of people of different ages and physical skills. The graduates are able to model the content of physical education, to apply effective methods for teaching movements and suitable methods for identification and assessment of quality in mastering movements, to create and apply technologies for self-development of physical education, are able to apply principles of management of sports organisations, to manage the training of young athletes.
Activities of teaching and learning:
Problem-based learning, team work, discussions, analysis of scientific publications and educational documents, traditional lectures.
Methods of assessment of learning achievements:
Ten-point criteria-based scale as well as a system of cumulative evaluation are applied. Analysis of a scientific article, peer evaluation, individual and group homework, oral and written exams, literature analysis, project activity, case analysis.
Framework:
Study subjects (modules), practical training:
Study subjects constitute three groups: I. Compulsory subjects in the study field, II. Subjects of the specialisations in the study field (Physical and Sport Education, Sport Education Management), III. Master’s Thesis. Compulsory subjects in the study field are dedicated to expanding interdisciplinary knowledge and abilities, critical assessment and selection of knowledge by grounding their functional relation in the decision-making in complex educational situations. The programme seeks those subjects constituting this group of subjects would reflect the problems of the topics dealt with and allow perceiving importance of scientific research when substantiating facts, trends etc. It is plausible that the knowledge and abilities gained in such a way will allow Masters efficiently perform their activities in the constantly changing environment. The purpose of the study specialisations is to gain forming abilities to deal with the problems in physical education science, sport education management. These specialisations are intended for perception of the methodology of physical education science, sport education management (to gain knowledge, understanding which are necessary for the competences of a researcher in the education field). The research work is intended for application of obtained theoretical, practical knowledge while preparing the final Master’s Thesis. A particular problem of education science and practice is chosen and competences of a researcher-analyst, critical thinking and performance are implemented.
Specialisations:
Master students can choose one study specialisation: Physical Education Science or Sport Education Management. During studies of physical education science specialisation the content of physical education is being modelled, effectiveness of the methods of teaching movements as well as suitability of the methods for identification and assessment of quality in mastering movements are analysed, technologies of self-development of physical education are interpreted. During studies of sport education management specialisation characteristics of management of sports organisations are analysed; management of the training of young athletes is emphasised with regard to intrinsic and external factors; much attention is paid to human resource management.
Optional courses:
Students can deepen their knowledge in their study field by choosing specialized subject of the field.
Distinctive features of a study programme:
The programme is oriented not only towards education of specialists who can work in comprehensive schools or sport schools; it is designed to develop competences allowing graduates of the programme to successfully integrate themselves into the labour market, i.e., to find own niche in the sector of physical education and sports, to be able to create work places for himself/ herself and others. Educated specialists can also successfully work with both learners who seek high results in sports and people of various ages, whose main aim is focused on recreational leisure-time physical education and development to maintain and improve health and quality of life.
Access to professional activity or further study:
Access to professional activity:
Graduates can perform educational and administrative work at physical education and sports institutions, comprehensive education and sports schools, private and public health and sports institutions, state and non-governmental organizations, to administrate, prepare and implement various projects, programmes.
Access to further study:
Graduates can choose to pursue doctoral studies in the field of education science.
