Impact of distance learning on the physical training of technical university students in the context of the COVID-19 virus pandemic

Abstract

The conditions of the pandemic caused by the covid-19 virus have made significant changes in the lifestyle of student youth, as well as in the educational process in universities, including in physical education. The main emphasis was placed on the self-organization of physical culture and health-improving activities of students: lecture courses and theoretical and methodological classes were organized. The purpose of the study is to analyze the impact of distance learning on the lifestyle, physical training and functional state of students of the Don State Technical University; as well as identifying ways to improve the quality of distance learning. The study was carried out on the basis of the Don State Technical University in Rostov-on-Don with the participation of second and third year full-time students. Students took a questionnaire reflecting their self-assessment on the organization of independent physical training and well-being in self-isolation during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. To study the physical training of the respondents, a comparative analysis of the results of the initial and control testing of basic physical qualities was used.
