THE IMPORTACE OF SPECIFIC COMPETENCES IN THE FIELD OF MOTOR SKILLS IN THE WORK OF NURSERY TEACHERS IN KINDERGARDEN

Diplomsko delo z naslovom Pomembnost specifičnih kompetenc na področju gibanja pri delu vzgojiteljev v vrtcu je sestavljeno iz teoretičnega in empiričnega dela. V teoretičnem delu smo predstavili vlogo vzgojitelja v vrtcu in njegove kompetence, pomen športnih dejavnosti za gibalni razvoj otroka in vlogo vzgojitelja pri razvijanju gibalnih kompetenc otroka. Empirični del zajema ugotovitve raziskave, opravljene z anketnim vprašalnikom na vzorcu 57 vzgojiteljev iz vrtcev Beltinci, Črenšovci, Murska Sobota, Tišina in Turnišče. Namen celotne raziskave je bil ugotoviti, kolikšno pomembnost vzgojitelji pripisujejo stalnemu strokovnemu spopolnjevanju, kolikšen pomen dajejo predmetno specifičnim kompetencam na področju gibanja in usposobljenosti za medpodročno povezovanje, spodbujanje ustvarjalnosti in za delo s sodobnimi učnimi tehnologijami. Ugotovili smo, da vzgojitelji z daljšo delovno dobo pripisujejo strokovnemu spopolnjevanju več pomembnosti kot s krajšo delovno dobo. Najnižjo usposobljenost za spodbujanje ustvarjalnosti v športu izkazujejo vzgojitelji od 6 do vključno 10 let delovne dobe. Ugotovili smo, da vzgojitelji z višjo stopnjo izobrazbe pripisujejo predmetno specifičnim kompetencam na gibalnem področju večji pomen kot vzgojitelji z nižjo stopnjo izobrazbe in da so vzgojitelji z nižjim nazivom manj usposobljeni za medpodročno povezovanje kot vzgojitelji z višjim nazivom.My graduation thesis entitled: The Importace of specific competences in the field of motor skills in the work of nursery teachers in kindergarden has two parts: theoretical and empirical part. The focus in the theoretical part lies in the role of nursery teacher, their competences in kindergarden, the importance of sport activities for the motor development of the child and the role of nursery teacher in the development of motor competences of a child. The empirical part presents the results of the research, conducted with a questionnaire on the pattern of 57 nursery teachers in kindergardens in Beltinci, Črenšovci, Murska Sobota, Tišina and Turnišče. The purpose of the research was to find out, how important nursery teachers find the following: permanent professional training, subject-specific competences in the field of motor skills and the capacity for cross sectoral integration and encouraging creativity and work by means of modern teaching technology. We found out that the nursery teachers with a longer working life consider permanent professional training more important than the nursery teachers with a shorter working life. Nursery teachers with working life of 6 to 10 years show the lowest capacity for encouraging creativity in sports. Nursery teachers with a higher level of education attribute to subject-specific competences in the field of motor skills more importance than nursery teachers with a lower level of education. And finally, nursery teachers with a lower professional title are not as well trained for cross-sectoral integration as are nursery teachers with a higher professional title
