There are a lot of arguments over whether arthetic department in university should be received the same amount of money as libraries. Although it is true that library is one of the important facility of university, I think physical education has also its own values. This is largely due to the fact that sports in university will contribute to students health and physical education can teach us the importance of corporation to learners.
To start with, physical classes in university provide students with chances to improve their fitness. Generally speaking, by attending gym classes students can maintain their good physical condition in the university. To demonstrate, according to the research done by the department of education in Korea in 2006, 75 percent of students answered that sports activity in university is necessary for their them. In opposite, only 25 percent of students said that they don't need to physical education for their campus life. This shows that the importance of physical education in university.
As to the second point, students will have more chances to know about a sence of corporation though sports education. While students play team sports, such as basketball or baseball, they can realize the importance of teamwork because they usually encourge and help each other while they conenctrate on team sports. From my personal experiences, when I play basketball as a member of team, I encourage team members in order to win the game. With other members, I tried to play well as much as I can. Finally, we won the game then we were able to share the feeling of 'achivement'. Through these teamworks, we could share the importance of 'team-spirit'. Not only in just sports activity but it also very helpful in my socail life.
To sum up, university should fund more money as library in order to invest physical eduction department because sports activity is crucial way for students to maintain their fitness as well as to relize the importance of teamwork. All things considered, physical education should be recognized as the most important factor in students' success because it is impossible to succeed in life without good health. |
