Abstract
The article is devoted to determining the interest of higher education applicants in physical education classes, their awareness of innovative forms, methods and modern methods of health-improving fitness training. The results of the survey of students of higher education institutions of technical profile, conducted with the help of Google-form, on promising, in their opinion, directions of improving the discipline "Physical Education" in the institution of higher education of technical profile due to the introduction of the proposed innovative methods in the teaching system are analyzed. It is established that students have prior experience in Physical Culture and sports, their interest in transforming the process of physical education, experience and prospects for using existing, modern and affordable methods of health training in combination with other (traditional and innovative) methods to improve the physical condition of those who are engaged. The purpose of the study is to promote awareness of educational applicants with the basics of organizing the educational process of physical education in higher education institutions, their familiarization with the currently available and promising innovative means of Physical Culture and sports. During the experimental study, the following methods were used: analysis of materials of pedagogical literature, pedagogical observations on the practice of organizing the educational process in higher education institutions; questionnaires; methods of statistical data processing. Results and conclusions. Sports and physical culture should be an integral part of the life of modern students. But, as the survey showed, a fairly large percentage of young people are not interested in the presence of the discipline "Physical Education" in the individual plan. However, the majority of students (about 90%) who regularly or sporadically engaged in physical exercises before admission are sure that "physical education" should be present throughout the entire period of study. In addition, the survey showed that many students are dissatisfied with the content of the physical education system in higher education institutions and therefore believe that the current system needs to be improved and changed. More than half of the surveyed students want to continue their Sports life after graduation. The novelty of the presented study is that over the past 5 years, which included the transition to distance learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's full-scale aggression against Ukraine, almost for the first time an attempt was made to analyze the degree of awareness of applicants for higher education (in particular, technical profile) with the existence of innovative methods and corresponding means of Physical Culture and sports.
