The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a Step Aerobics Training (SAT) on the skin temperature (Tsk) in different regions (ROI) of the anterior body surface. The study included 15 healthy volunteers of the Bialystok University of Technology (BUT) without any previous experience in SAT training. Two sets of thermograms were recorded before and immediately after exercise at the first and last sessions of a 30-weeks SAT program with a progressive intensity. The results indicate a generalized drop in body temperature immediately after exercise with ΔTsk values of -2.45ºC registered immediately after the first training and lower drops (ΔTsk = -1.69ºC) after the 30 weeks of SAT. The regions with lower values of post- vs pre-exercise Tsk were the thighs both in the first session and in the last session of the 30-weeks SAT program. The results show non-significant variations for asymmetries between the values of the contralateral ROIs in every moment of the data collection. We concluded that a 30-week SAT program resulted in significant drop of mean Tsk of evaluated body parts (ROI), being the thermal effects related with the areas more activated in the sport practice. From the thermal asymmetries perspective, the training program carried out did not generate any injury risk for the participants.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to compare e–learning and traditional methods of teaching of two subjects maintained at the Faculty of Health Sciences in the Medical University of Bialystok. Material and methods: The study included 142 students of third year undergraduate studies. 83 were studying subject "Obstetrics, gynecology and obstetrics–gynecology nursing” and 59 students - “Therapeutic massage” in the field of physio-therapy. The research group (43 and 16 persons respectively) held talks in a way of e–learning. An implementation of the LMS/LCMS (Moodle) system was used to teach the classes. In the control group (40 and 43 persons respectively) lectures were held in a traditional way. Final examinations were conducted simultaneously in each group in a manner of single–choice test for both e-learning and traditional method of teaching. Results: Almost similar results with a slight predominance of the final average score in the distant learning system were obtained in both groups of students. In the field of nursing average score of students participating in on-line learning was – 3.49, while in the traditional system of education – 3.26. In the field of physiotherapy an average score of students participating in on-line learning was – 4.38, while in the traditional system of education – 4.32. Conclusion: Our results show that e–learning method is at least not lesser than traditional method of teaching subjects in the field of nursing and physiotherapy.
