Swimming teaching program to improve learning in adults
Keywords:
Swimming, Adult Learning, Teaching ProgramAbstract
Objective: To evaluate the effect of a swimming program on the improvement of swimming skills in adults.
Methods: A qualitative study was conducted with 25 adults aged 18 to 64 years, using a descriptive-analytical and field approach. An observation guide was applied to determine whether a swimming program with detailed activities for adults leads to improvements in learning the sport.
Results: By methodically applying the phases of familiarization, conditioning, exploration, use, and exploitation, along with exercises and playful activities, the 25 adults learned to swim the front crawl style in 20 classes. This resulted in improvements in coordination, as well as physical and psychological health, without any pathologies arising from their practice.
Conclusions: The applied program achieved the expected learning outcomes, demonstrating that, when implemented with adults, it produces the same results as when applied to children. The main conclusion is that learning is not limited by age.
