 L'attività fisica è in grado di migliorare il rendimento scolastico.



Con questo articolo il dott. Alessandro Rosponi, specialista in medicina dello sport, inizia la collaborazione con la nostra società; 

Invito tutti i genitori a leggere con attenzione queste riflessioni:

Sono innumerevoli le evidenze scientifiche che confermano come l’attività fisica svolta regolarmente sia in grado di migliorare (non peggiorare) il rendimento scolastico, soprattutto negli atleti

School sport and academic achievement.

Bradley J1, Keane F, Crawford S.

.....  …Promuovere la partecipazione allo sport in ambito scolastico e dare accesso a una gamma di sport di squadra e di sport individuali nel corso degli anni della scuola secondaria può essere un modo utile per migliorare i voti del diploma di maturità degli stessi studenti….

...…..Holloway (1999/2000) ha suggerito che invece di tagliare le attività extrascolastiche durante i periodi di bilancio difficili, i dirigenti scolastici dovrebbero sostenere finanziariamente tali attività perché è dimostrato che evitano l’abbandono scolastico e contribuiscono al successo negli studi. Questo studio su larga scala supporta le scoperte di Holloway. In Kansas, la partecipazione allo sport nelle scuole superiori non toglie assolutamente nulla al rendimento scolastico. In Kansas coloro che durante gli studi superiori erano impegnati come atleti durante l’anno scolastico 2008-2009 hanno ottenuto voti migliori alla maturità, hanno avuto una percentuale maggiore di laureati……… di fatto rispetto ai non atleti……
