Increasing the efficiency of physical education teachers’ professional training

A topical problem of finding efficient ways to structure the educational process is discussed so that students could master both theoretical and practical skills. The research aim is to develop the methods of training future physical education teachers. Methods of conducting PE lessons using different kinds of teaching are discussed and theirefficiency is analyzed. In this respect the authors present two methods of training future teachers to conduct PE lessons. The efficiency of both methods was experimentally assessed. One of the methods involves only practical training while the second one combines theoretical and practical training. The experimental results show the efficiency of the method that combines theoretical and practical training. In the end of the research the authors arrive at the conclusion about the efficiency of different methods of training students. The conducted research can be useful to higher school teachers, teachers of teacher training colleges and PE school teachers.
