This paper presents an empirical approach to the changes in motor skills of children who train sports swimming at the initial stage of school education in an annual training cycle. Swimming belongs to the disciplines in which training starts at the age of 6-7. The proper selection of candidates to train certain disciplines is a complex process as they should be chosen from a large population of children, both girls and boys, having specific somatic and motor characteristics which, developed in the long-term, will enable them to achieve sports mastery. The aim of the research was to define which changes in motor skills occur in girls who train sports Aim: swimming in an annual training cycle. The Subject group consisted of 85 girls aged 7 who attended four elementary schools in Szczecin, Poland. 36 of them belonged to the Swimmers group and they were all members of the Municipal Swimming Club (MKP) in Szczecin. The Control group consisted of 49 girls who attended the same elementary schools. All subjects took part in two examinations (carried out in the school year 2009/2010. Physical ability tests were conducted in gyms. Motor skills were assessed with EUROFIT Test Battery which is the most reliable and accurate tool according to scientific research. The research revealed changes in both groups (Sw, C) in terms of all eight tests. Examination II proved statistically significant improvement of results in both groups (Sw, C) in comparison to Examination I. Changes between Examination I and Examination II results were most visible in the Swimmers groups in terms of balance, agility, static strength, functional strength and agility run. Changes between Examination I and Examination II were similar in both groups (Sw, C) in terms of speed of limb movement, explosive strength and torso strength. Progressive changes in motor skill of subjects are a positive phenomenon in the physical development of a child. Swimming training resulted significantly in positive changes in terms of motor skills of subject who were at the initial stage of swimming trainings, compared to their non-training peers. Participation in organized, regular sports classes results in the development of motor (physical) skills of children.

The decreasing number of students at the Polish education system, the expectations of the labor market and the needs of employers are forcing the higher education system to make changes in programs and models of teaching. Upon graduation, a student should be prepared to meet the increasing demands of the employment market, which expects graduates to have high professional and language competencies, related to, among others, modern technologies. The aim of the research conducted at the Faculty of Physical Culture and Health Promotion of the University of Szczecin was to ascertain the motives for the students’ choice of studies in the field of Tourism and Recreation in the context of their career plans. 49 first-cycle students and 39 second-cycle students aged between 20 and 25 were examined. In the study the diagnostic survey was employed, with the use of the techniques of questionnaire, observation and interviews. For the statistical inference frequency of characteristics, chi-square test of independence and multiple correspondence analysis were applied. It was found that the most important motives for studying Tourism and Recreation were interest in physical recreation, love of traveling, and desire to explore the world and disseminate a healthy lifestyle through active recreation. Students who chose the field of study consistent with their interests were planning to find jobs in a profession consistent with their education.

Celem pracy była analiza samooceny wiedzy, umiejętności zawodowych i kompetencji społecznych studentów kierunku turystyka i rekreacja oraz wskazanie możliwości modyfikacji i wzbogacenia programów kształcenia. Badaniami, w roku akademickim 2015/2016, objęto 88 studentów kierunku turystyka i rekreacja Wydziału Kultury Fizycznej i Promocji Zdrowia Uniwersytetu Szczecińskiego. Zastosowano metodę sondażu diagnostycznego, z wykorzystaniem techniki ankiety (kwestionariusz własnego autorstwa), wywiadu nieskategoryzowanego i obserwacji. Do wnioskowania statystycznego użyto standardowych metod statystycznych: frekwencji cech oraz testu niezależności chi-kwadrat. Wyniki badań w zakresie samooceny wiedzy, kompetencji zawodowych i społecznych respondentów odniesiono do ich identyfikacji z kierunkiem studiów. Stwierdzono, że większość studiujących turystykę i rekreację identyfikowała się z wybranym kierunkiem. Poziom samooceny wiedzy studentów – zwłaszcza z zakresu specjalności – nie był wy-soki. Zaobserwowano związek między poziomem identyfikacji a samooceną umiejętności i kompetencji. Studenci mocnej identyfikujący się z kierunkiem studiów wyżej oceniali swoje umiejętności zawodowe oraz kompetencje społeczne.Podejmowane działania – w celu dostosowania programu studiów do poziomu przygotowania kandydatów oraz potrzeb rynku pracy – korelują z uzyskanymi wynikami. Powinny przynieść za-mierzony efekt w postaci wzrostu tych kompetencji, których deficyt stwierdzono w badaniach.

The aim of this study is an analysis of self-assessment of professional skills and competences of Tourism and Recreation students, as well as an attempt to indicate the possible uses of education mechanisms to modify and enrich curricula so that they take into account the need to develop students’ social skills. The research used a diagnostic survey method. Subjects included 88 students of the Faculty of Physical Culture and Health Promotion at the University of Szczecin. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of results was based on standard statistical methods: incidence of features, a Chi-squared test and a multi-dimensional correspondence analysis. Most students of Tourism and Recreation identified with their chosen field of study. Self-assessment of students’ knowledge – especially in terms of their major – was not high. There was a correlation between identifying oneself with the field of study and self-assessment of competences. Students who identified with their field of study more, reported higher self-assessment of their competences. Efforts to adapt the curriculum to the level of preparedness of candidates and the needs of the labor market correlate with the obtained results. These efforts should bring the desired effect of increased competences, whose deficit was detected during the research.
