title: [Health education through sports. Proposal for an intervention in the formative years].
abstract: The authors present the program: "Physical fitness and health education", direct to childhood of secondary school. The goal is to encourage physical activity and behaviors linked with exercise (caloric intakes and weight control, no smoking ...) to improve health and fitness. The accomplishments of the program need collaboration between physicians and gym teachers to determine methods of realizations and verifications of the program. The educational program has been based on the operative pattern introduced by Guilbert. It is developed through four stages: 1) Definition of pedagogical objectives. The authors point three intermediate objectives a) acquisition of theoretical and practical elements characterizing training exercises wealthy for growth and health; acquisition of the right attitudes not be lose the aforesaid educational contents. b) acquisition of theoretical and practical elements characterizing a diet wealthy for growth and efficiency in sports; acquisition of the right attitudes not be lose the aforesaid educational contents. c) acquisition of theoretical and practical elements for a correct way of life allowing growth and efficiency in sports; acquisition of the right attitudes not be lost the aforesaid educational contents. 2) Definition of methods of verification. The authors point out the following: a) written and oral test, questionnaires for the valuation of the "know" level b) practical tests for valuation of the "know how to do" level c) reports from the teachers of valuation of the "know how to be" level. 3) Organization and realization of the program. The authors point out educational contents to get the three intermediate objectives, together with the times for realization of the program. The fixed program is introduced to the young people at the beginning of secondary school in physical education periods all over the three years of the first grade course. 4) The authors point out the moments of verifications: beginning and end of each or the three years of course.
