RESUMO
A través de las pruebas de eficiencia física, se determina cómo se va comportando el desarrollo de los estudiantes durante el curso y, en función de estos resultados, poder realizar acciones para mejorar su trayectoria. La flexibilidad es la capacidad física que brinda al hombre la posibilidad de realizar movimientos de gran amplitud, condicionada por las estructuras neuromio-articulares de fijación y estabilización y cuando se utiliza el trabajo cooperativo, el éxito de una actividad de un integrante depende del triunfo del compañero. En observaciones a clases y entrevistas realizadas a los estudiantes del primer año del curso Regular Diurno de la carrera de Cultura Física, se corrobora que en las Pruebas de Eficiencia Física (Pef) realizadas al inicio del curso, el nivel obtenido en la capacidad física Flexibilidad , con respecto al resto de las pruebas, es el de mayor dificultad y muy marcado en los varones, además, la variedad en las clases y el poco uso de trabajo cooperativo son insuficientes por lo que el objetivo de trabajo va dirigido a proponer un conjunto de actividades cooperativas que favorezcan la capacidad física Flexibilidad en los estudiantes del primer año de la carrera de Cultura Física de la Uccfd "Manuel Fajardo". Se utilizaron los métodos inductivo-deductivos, análisis-síntesis, observación científica, encuesta y criterio de especialista. Los resultados fueron positivos para los estudiantes después de cuatro meses de aplicarse la propuesta. Los especialistas valoraron de Muy Adecuado la propuesta, lo que se evidencia en los resultados de los estudiantes la mejoría del nivel en la prueba de flexibilidad.
Através dos testes de eficiência física, define-se como o desenvolvimento dos alunos está se comportando durante o curso e, dependendo destes resultados, podem ser tomadas medidas para melhorar sua evolução. Flexibilidade é a capacidade física que dá ao homem a possibilidade de realizar movimentos de grande amplitude, influenciados pelas estruturas neuro-mio-articulares de fixação e estabilização, e quando se utiliza o trabalho cooperativo, o sucesso da atuação de um membro depende do sucesso do associado. Nas observações nas aulas e nas pesquisas realizadas com os alunos no primeiro ano do curso Regular Diurno de Cultura Física, é comprovado que nos Testes de Eficiência Física (Pef) realizados no início do curso, o nível obtido na capacidade física Flexibilidade, em relação ao resto dos testes, é o mais difícil e muito marcado nos homens, Além disso, a variedade nas aulas e o pouco uso do trabalho cooperativo são insuficientes, por isso o objetivo do trabalho é propor um conjunto de atividades cooperativas que privilegiem a capacidade física para a flexibilidade nos alunos do primeiro ano do curso de Cultura Física no Uccfd "Manuel Fajardo". Foram utilizados os métodos indutivo-deducativo, análise-síntese, observação científica, pesquisa e critérios especializados. Os resultados foram positivos para os estudantes após quatro meses de aplicação da proposta. Os especialistas classificaram a proposta como Muito Adequada, o que é evidenciado pela melhoria no nível dos estudantes no teste de flexibilidade.
Through the physical efficiency tests, it is determined how the students' development is behaving during the course and, based on these results, actions can be taken to improve their trajectory. Flexibility is the physical capacity that gives man the possibility to perform movements of great amplitude, conditioned by the neuro-myo-articular structures of fixation and stabilization, and when cooperative work is used, the success of an activity of one member depends on the success of the partner. In class observations and interviews with the students of the first year of the Regular Day Course of the Physical Culture career, it is corroborated that in the Physical Efficiency Tests (Pef in Spanish) carried out at the beginning of the course, the level obtained in the physical capacity Flexibility, with respect to the rest of the tests, is the most difficult and very marked in the males, in addition, the variety in the classes and the little use of cooperative work are insufficient, so the objective of the work is aimed at proposing a set of cooperative activities that favor the physical capacity Flexibility in the students of the first year of the Physical Culture course of the Physical Culture and Sport Sciences University (Uccfd in Spanish) "Manuel Fajardo". The inductive-deductive, analysis-synthesis, scientific observation, survey and specialist criteria methods were used. The results were positive for the students after four months of applying the proposal. The specialists assessed the proposal as Very Adequate, which is evidenced by the students' results in the improvement of the level in the flexibility test.
RESUMO
The opportunity for the community health nursing profession to engage in international cooperative activities is increasing in recent years. Many challenges are anticipated for developing the cooperative activities, since the basic situations in each country regarding the environment, the cultural background or the health system are quite different. However analysis of the challenges is not enough, we must also understand limitations based on individual personal experiences. The purpose of this report is to describe the challenges that interrupt the development of cooperative activities.<br> The target group was sixteen public health nurses who were sent to developing countries as JOCV (Japan Overseas Cooperative Volunteers) from June1997 to March 1999. The research was conducted for two years. Data were collected from each participant using five semi-structured questionnaires and analyzed using qualitative methods for the following areas: (1) challenges, (2) changes in viewpoints about the language learning, and (3) changes in participants' health conditions.<br> Fifteen participants returned the questionnaires. Results showed wide variation in the challenges described, and the challenges changed during the period of assignment. During the beginning period, there were many descriptions about difficulties based on daily life and cultural adaptation. Afterward, challenges based on the cooperative activities became the core of issues to resolve. Some challenges involved a lack of information for planning the cooperative activities, lack of funds, a too-short time frame, local staff's resistance to the out-reach activities. Also some issues were very difficult solely on the basis of the personal effort required <br> When we carry out cooperative activities in developing countries, there will inevitably be various challenges. However, there are two types of challenges, challenges able to be resolved by personal effort and challenges in need of system responsiveness. To develop effective cooperative activities in a limited period, it is necessary to understand the possible challenges that will happen and take measures to prevent avoidable situations.
