Didactic essence of the differential approach to the formation of motor skills in women's mini football

One of the significant factor of the development of modern sport is considering of a gender issue. Sport for women has gained a status of social force, is considered to be a means of emancipation and welfare which definitely determin its position in the society. However, data about the health of women-athletes, their functionalabilities, the specific of their adaptive reactions as for the extreme physical and psycho-emotional load with training, which sports physiology and medicine have in their dispodal are little and scarce in term of the necessary facts  to be learned about the peculiarities of women's body.

Major demands for a female body which are generally required during training sessions and competitions, resulted in a number of studies which were carried out at the intersection of several scientific subjects. These researches were primarily devoted to to the study of the specific characteristics of a female body in various sports situations.

Among the large variety of means of physical education which are used for the harmonious development of the modern person sports games take the the leading place. With the rise, development and wide popularization of women's mini-football(futsal) the "hidden" pedagogical and methodological capabilities of this game have appeared and proved this game to be available not only for boys but for girls also.

Nowadays, the education sector is experiencing a period of quality changes. Therefore, an urgent need in carrying out of different researches with the aim to transform teaching methods in general and in particular teaching methods for motor actions has appeared. With the modernization of education in Ukraine the problem of holistic personality development has gained the particular importance. The maintaining of this objective can be achieved only with the help of the implementation of personality oriented learning, training and development. Personalization and differentiation of this educational process are the prior components of personality oriented model of education.

Rational, scientific and reasonable use of physical education and training activities form the foundation for preserving and developing of the students health. To achieve this goal is possible only if the implementation of the training process will be based on the principles which provide the sustainable health development and take into account the level of the individual development . Hence, the necessity to focus our attention on every child actualizes the problem of the individual approach in organizing of the personality oriented physical education. Individual approach is the key to the effectiveness of the educational process and is based on the fact that any educational impact is made with the account of the individual characteristics of every child. Differential approach is also based on the certain knowledge about individual characteristics. Thus, individualization and differentiation in children physical education is not a goal but a tool for the development of an individual peculiarities of every student. All students are very much different  in many aspects: their health, their level of physical development, their level of formation and functioning of various organs and systems of the body and so on. Therefore, a differential approach in physical education must take into account various of aspects of personality motor development.

The necessity  to focus attention on every child causes the approach of personality oriented training processto be used in women's mini-football(futsal).

The technology of teaching students provides three levels in the process of mastering a mini-football game. The first level (basic) is e level where one can learn the techniques of the game of football on the lessons of physical training, the second (middle) level will help to improve sports male mastering in the footballsections at secondary schools, the third (top) level is a test of gained knowledge and skills while participating in different extracurricular school competitions.

The concept of "differential approach" (differentiation - from Latin. "Differenta" difference - means division of the whole one into qualitatively different parts) are used simultaneously.

Differential training process is such a complex method of education, which should take into account not only the general age, but also the individual characteristics of every child within a group of students who are similar according to their morpho and functional parameters.

In modern pedagogy differential study is a didactic principle which is created to improve a complex teaching environment and takes into account typological (individual) characteristics of students (their interests, creativity, learning, learning ability, performance, etc.) which influenced the differential goals of educational content, forms and methods of teaching.

Differentiation of Physical Education provides the certain adjustment of the educational syllabus to the individual capabilities of every student due to differention of methods, means and intensity of physical activity in term of groups which consist of approximately equal amount of students.

Individual differences of students are coused by the following factors:

• biological (age, sex, genetically predefined features, etc..)

• social (family, environment, education);

• psychological (perception, thinking, character abilities, etc.);

• characteristics of physical development.

Considering the degree of puberty, physical development, the nature of adaptation to muscular activity allows to individualize  the process of physical education of school children.

The issue of differential approach in education has been sufficiently studied by native and foreign psycho-pedagogical scholars. It also was studied in different aspects, as the highlighting of levels, forms and types of differentiation and providing of its teaching, the content and methods of diagnosis of children development, the usage of  a differential approach in physical education for children and others. A great number of scholars were interested in such a significant aspect, so among them are: N. Bahlayeva, A. Bohopolskyy, A. Bugaev, Volkova N., M. Karchenkova, A. Korsakov, L. Novikov, V. Onipko, A. Samodryn, P. Sikorski, B. Sukhomlinsky, I. Unt, N. Shiyan, A. Tsos et al. Differential approach to the levels of physical education is considered to be one of the main issues of theory and practice of pedagogy because this issue was repeatedly studied by pedagogical scientists. B. Syerykov assumes the differential approach as a condition for performing of an individual approach which requires not only attention to each student, his artistic personality, but also a reasonable combination of front, group and individual lessons. (В. Сериков 1994, s. 24 – 28). I. Unt believes that this differentiation -is a sum of specific peculiarities of the individual in that very form when they are grouped on the basis of any characteristics for individual learning (И. Унт 1990, s. 192).

Differential approach to physical education G. Aksenov maintains on the basis of the levels of physical experience of students considering somatotype of a person which has its peculiarities, resulting in the motor motility (А. Аксенова  2006, s. 24). The concept of differentiation in physical education, where the required registration of group differences of students by level of their physical experience is obligatory (low, medium and high) was considered by A. Korotkova. This concept is based on the interaction of technology elements that are combined in a set in order to develop the individual characteristics of students (Е. Короткова 2000, s. 46).

Differential education is a widely known means and an effective tool for implementation of the individual approach to the organization of training activities. Its usage should be carried out in a systematic and flexible way, be coherent to changes that occur in the educational process.

It is necessary to follow these requirements for successful implementation of the differential approach in training process of women's mini-football(futsal)

 • studying of individual characteristics and educational opportunities of athletes;

• defining differentiated criteria for dividing into groups;

• using and improving of abilities and skills in group and individual work;

• typological structuring of educational material, advancing and simplifying of its content according to the levels of certain groups of athletes;

• systematic and objective analysis of educational and training work;

• planning of the scheme work for the development of their skills for independent work and the ability to manage with their own training process;

• differentiation of individual tasks and independent training of athletes;

• selection of rational methods of teaching and training activities;

• Ongoing feedback and the use of encouraging techniques.

 

The basic form of differentiated instruction - motor developing tasks that are developed for each subgroup of children (divided into low, medium and high physical fexperiance).

The varieties of tasks  were selected in terms of the individual characteristics of children:

• • children with high physical experience can cope with the tasks related to enriching their motor skills;

• • children with average physical fitness objectives are suggested thatb they should improve the techniques of the exercises for better development of their physical and volitional qualities;

• • children with low physical experience are offered to fulfill the tasks which are aimed at acquiring of the experience of doing the exercise technically which are gradually learned and contribute to overall physical and volitional development.

Specific and proper regulation of private (individual) learning tasks in separate motor actions is ensured with keeping the following aspects:

- achieving of the set result in teaching movements and motor actions;

- specifying of actions in relation to the features that are important for the subject of the study;

- individualization of possibilities of trainees, which depends on their age-and the levels of physical experience;

- keeping a particular sequence in term of laws and regulation as for the formation of motor actions and the logic of the educational process.

Training and education should be organized so that they could always have developing features. To fulfill it, the existing level of motor experience, physical and mental development of children in their effort to ensure the availability of physical education by setting goals that fully coinside with the opportunities of students are taken into account. However, we do not rely on the existing level of development but the potential opportunities of the students. In other words, we should not teach a child what he can learn without much effort but what he is able to perform only with the help of some teachers today and tomorrow by himself.

The introduction of a differential approach to the system of formation of motor skills in women's football has to take into account the following aspects:

1. taking into account the differences in athletes attitudes to training process and their results. It is necessary to take care of the sufficient motivation to develop incentives that promotes assertion of personality by creating situations for success.

2. the number of necessary exercises for learning and consolidation of educational material as for women's mini-football(futsal) by every learner.

3. when mastering the technique of motor actions should be selected warming exercises of proper character and scope which depend on the educational success of the students. For complex exercise, there are several warming up activities each of them has its specific purpose. During training, each student is given such kind of exercises that help to master the most difficult phase.

4. different capabilities of students to maintain physical and mental load with the activities  are varied. This fact motivates the coacher to to ensure the fulfillment of strict differentiation in learning objectives for every student.

5. students perceive information in a different way which depends  on the method of its transmission, which is one of the reasons for the necessity to study the characteristics of students perception and complex use teaching methods.

6. considering of coahes positive experience who evaluate students not only  by their absolute results, but according to growing potential from the initial results.

7. the necessity to take into account the age and training aspects of the rate of biological development (retardation and acceleration).

8. taking into account the dynamics of athletes physical capability.

Differential approach to training process of a mini-football is implemented in three areas:

The first area - the study and account of individual characteristics of students:

a) the study of age, sex and morphofunctional characteristics of students;

b) records of the health check-up;

c) records of the control data;

d) analysis of health status,and level of skills mastering.

The second area - the students groups management :

a) the division of students into groups;

b) the determination of loading of physical activity;

c) differentiation of content, volume and intensity of training and the training load activity;

d) organizational and methodological activities.

The third area organizing of independent activity of athletes:

a) the determination of modeling of general physical training (GPT) and special physical training (SPT), and test charts modeling

b) the development of individual tasks;

c) the determination of individual approaches to assess the dynamics of individual results;

d) development of differentiated individual tasks;

Thus,  individual characteristics and state of person development will allow to ensure the harmonious development of motor skills with the help of the selection of adequate means for physical education. The usage of means and methods which are not in correlation with individual, age, sexual characteristics of the students,can have a negative impact on teenagers health and make their physical development slow as well as be accompanied by relactancy to the educational process, by the reduction of the dynamic of sports results  of a team as a whole unit.
