FERIZ OTANO, Limay; SUAREZ SUAREZ, Gilberto e BERNARDES CARBALLO, Kety. Promotion of physical activities for older adults: an educational strategy for Gerontology students. Rev Podium [online]. 2024, vol.19, n.1 Epub 03-Abr-2024. ISSN 1996-2452.
Currently, there is a progressive trend towards population aging. The purpose of this research was to present an educational strategy for students of the 5th level of Gerontology that contributes to the promotion of physical activity in older adults. The research was framed in a mixed methodology and a cross-sectional descriptive design. Scientific methods were used that in the theoretical order include analysis-synthesis, inductive-deductive and structural systemic and as empirical methods documentary review, observation, survey and interviews, applied to a sample of 38 subjects. The study revealed the importance of physical activity as a strategy that allows achieving active aging with quality of life. According to these results, the application of an educational strategy, structured in three stages and two phases, contributes to the self-management of student learning, where the professional context becomes an authentic training space.
