arts as the artistic depiction of reality, as well as the relationship to the beauty
of reality – nature, other people and things. Active aesthetic creation is the
content and tool of aesthetic education.
In schooling, aesthetic education is applied in separate school subjects, as part
of other school subjects and through aestheticism of the environment.
5. Physical education
The aim of physical education is to cultivate the
physical and psychological
aspects of personality and boost one’s health and healthy lifestyle. Its specific
content includes the development of movement abilities, fitness and the habit
of moving regularly and doing sports, as well as
stirring up the interest in
accustoming one’s body to the cold and hardening systematically. Physical
education also aims
to support and form courage, persistence,
willpower, fair
play behaviour etc. Physical education is taught at schools as a separate
subject, but there are also other opportunities for exercising and sports offered
by other institutions where young people and adults may spend their free time.
Other components of education are determined by individual requirements.
They aim either at refining educational segments or are based on the society’s
current needs. We may encounter e.g.
worldview education, environmental,
legal
or medical education, as well as education to human rights, health,
business, etc.
Individual components cannot be perceived in isolation. Their importance grows
if they are perceived and developed in mutual relations and links.
