Virtual meeting - Dangers connected with practising some sports
During classes organized as part of the virtual meeting, students
analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of sports. They took part in
a meeting with experts: zumba instructors and a sports psychologist.
Students took part in discussions and shared their experiences and
opinions related to the topic of the meeting. They expanded their
knowledge about the risks associated with sports. They learned that
by practicing sports in the wrong way, they can harm themselves.
The classes developed students' creativity, critical and analytical
thinking and teamwork skills. Participants worked in international
