Possibilities to make the training of physical education teachers for aerobics lessons more diverse during gymnastics classes in Vilnius Pedagogical University

A teacher is the most important chain of knowledge, which ties teaching with science and school with life. Life is constantly changing and it is compulsory to pay attention to the development of teachers' training in order to speak about life or science's progress. In our opinion, there is a need to pay attention to the preparation of future physical education teachers for aerobics lessons. A teacher must satisfy the needs of schoolchildren for beauty culture and physical education of the body. Problematic situation exists because no aerobics lessons are held in most of schools because there reason is a lack of physical education teachers who have abilities to engage schoolchildren in such lessons and they are not capable enough in aerobics, but schoolchildren are interested in such activities. Aim of research. To find training diversification possibilities of physical education teachers for aerobics lessons during gymnastics classes in Vilnius Pedagogical University. Methods that were used in this work are literature resources analysis, situation analysis (aim of the research is to find out if students go for pedagogical internship with enough knowledge about aerobics and abilities to conduct aerobics lessons; questionnaire was distributed to 4th year physical education students after pedagogical internship) and mathematical statistical analysis. Pedagogical experiment. Experiment was implemented during the gymnastics training classes (24 sessions) with 1st year physical education students. Two groups of 1st year students (El gr. n = 27 and E2 gr. n = 27) participated in the experiment (total n = 54 students males and females). The structure of training classes for groups Ej and E2 was the same. Only the presented content in the main part of the lecture devoted for training of physical characteristics was different. Students of group Ej were training their physical characteristics by exercising aerobics with the sounds of musicVytauto Didžiojo universitetasŠvietimo akademij
