04/15/10 頭脳と身体の関係
Kids who struggle in math and
reading go to gym class first.
What we're trying to do here is
we're trying to
jump-start their brains.
So the very first class of the day...
Is physical education,
Absolutely.
Scientists say
Naperville is on to something.
At the University of Illinois,
Dr. Charles Hillman's research
shows that
after a 30-minute stint
on the treadmill,
students actually do up to
10% better at problem solving.
The old-school approach
stress things like
sportsmanship, teamwork,
building character.
But here at Naperville,
physical education is all about
switching kids' brains on
so they're ready to learn.
The way we learn anything is
by our brain cells changing.
Our brain cells are growing.
And exercise optimizes the brain
to do that.
数学や読解が苦手な生徒は
まず体育。
脳を活性化しているわけです。
朝 一番の授業は…
もちろん体育です。
学者もその効果を認めている。
イリノイ大学によれば
ランニングマシンで30分走ると―
生徒の問題解決能力が10％上がる。
従来の体育の目的は
チームワークなどを学ぶことだが―
この高校では
体育は脳の準備運動だ。
人間が学ぶときには
脳細胞が変化し成長します。
運動はそのために脳を最適化します。
