Abstract

The problem of increasing the effectiveness of the educational process in the Physical Education and Sport specialty at the Faculty of Educational Sciences and Arts, part of the Sofia University “St. Kliment Ohridski” is particularly timely, considering that the specialty is very recent – it was launched at Sofia University during the academic year of 2009/2010. On the other hand, there is a relentless competition in this field among the other universities in the country. In order to optimise the educational process in the specialty, the opinion of the students is extremely important, as a way for the lecturers to get relevant feedback. The goal of the study is to research the work done with the students and on this basis to make an attempt to optimise the educational process of the specialty. The study used a survey conducted on February 08, 2023 with a card containing a total of 32 questions. The results were analysed and presented based on analysis of the frequency (f) and percentages (%). The data gathered by the survey was processed in MS Excel
