INNOAGON and physical education in modern education

In contemporary Polish education, there is a discernible crisis in physical education classes for the Alpha generation, with the number of children and young people being exempted from such classes increasing steadily. Teachers are attempting to enhance the appeal of school physical education by orienting these classes towards sports. While this has facilitated exposure to diverse forms of physical activity, it has concomitantly distorted the fundamental objectives of physical education. The pursuit of knowledge, the cultivation of skills, and the promotion of health-enhancing attitudes are pivotal aspects of the physical education curriculum. However, the emphasis on competitive sports has led to a narrow focus on specific skills and competitions, overshadowing the broader benefits of physical activity for health. The integration of modern technologies into the teaching process has further exacerbated this issue, contributing to the ongoing crisis in physical education in Poland. To address these challenges, it is recommended that INNOAGON (innovative agonology) be incorporated into the physical education curriculum as a tangible and effective measure. This approach aims to maintain the fundamental goals of physical education by promoting continuous development of students' bodies, minds, and spirits, underpinned by utilitarian human values that have been developed over centuries. The integration of scientific, preventive, and complementary medicine in the domains of combat sports, individual sports and team sports is a key aspect of INNOAGON, ensuring the reinforcement of the objectives of physical education. The successful realisation of the acquisition of motor skills by children and young people for their universally understood physical and mental health can be achieved through the implementation of INNOAGON in physical education within the context of modern education.
