COMPARISON OF ENDURANCE AND AGILITY BETWEEN CHILDREN IN SLOVENIA AND SPAIN

V teoretičnem delu diplomske naloge so natančneje predstavljene naslednje motorične sposobnosti: vzdržljivost, hitrost in v okviru koordinacije hitrost. Vključene so tudi predhodne raziskave s področja gibanja, ki so bile narejene v Sloveniji in po svetu, ter obogatitvene in dodatne dejavnosti, ki so jih izvajali različni vrtci po Sloveniji. V empiričnem delu so predstavljena naša raziskovalna vprašanja ter hipoteze, kjer smo predvidevali, da ni statistično pomembnih razlik med španskimi in slovenskimi otroki v vzdržljivosti ter prav tako v hitrosti in agilnosti. S pomočjo t-testa, ki smo ga v samo raziskavo vključili, smo naša predvidevanja lahko potrdili. Sklep naše diplomske naloge je, da je gibanje v predšolskem obdobju zelo pomembno, zato mu je potrebno nameniti veliko časa. Naše primerjave pa so samo še potrdile, da lahko kljub nekaterim pozitivnim in negativnim pogojem, s katerimi se v posameznih državah srečujemo, otroke pripeljemo do podobnih rezultatov, le pravilno je k stvari potrebno pristopiti.In the theoretical part of the diploma paper the motor skills such as endurance, speed and agility, which is one of the manifestations of the coordination, are presented. We have included the findings of some previous researches on the field of movement and extracurricular activities that have been performed in various kindergartens throughout Slovenia. The empirical part presents our research questions and hypotheses, which predict there are no statistically significant differences among children in Spain and Slovenia in endurance and also in speed and agility. With the help of t-test, which was included in the research, our predictions have been proven. The conclusion of our research is that movement in a preschool period is very important, so a lot of time should be given to these activities. Out comparisons have confirmed that in spite of some positive and negative conditions some countries deal with, children come to similar results, the most important in this process is the right approach
