Hur bidrar undervisningen i idrott och hälsa till elevers hälsa? : En kvantitativ studie angående gymnasielevers uppfattningar om idrott och hälsa i Värmland.

Sammanfattning

Is it difficult to define what students gain in terms of health from physical education lessons? The purpose of this study is to use a quantitative method to demonstrate trends in how upper secondary school students in Värmland experience physical education and health education from a health perspective. Through a questionnaire containing background questions and covering the three categories of physical and mental health as well as motivation, this study will attempt to contrast perceptions of education. It will also demonstrate trends in how different frequencies of activity among students affect their perceptions. Health literacy is a recurring theoretical concept throughout the study. The results show that students gain the knowledge they need from education, but that how they experience this varies. Factors that demonstrate tendencies in students' experiences include various measures of physical activity. This can affect students both in the future and in the present, including their opporturnities to enjoy a good quality of life.
