Comprehensive School Physical Activity Programs: Putting Research into Evidence-Based Practice - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Schools are the ideal place to promote and apply the recommended 60 minutes of daily physical activity. But until now, it has been difficult to bridge the gap between research in this area and day-to-day practice in order to establish solid programs. Comprehensive School Physical Activity Programs guides you in effectively supporting physical education and increasing daily physical activity of school children using the Comprehensive School Physical Activity Program (CSPAP) model. The text mixes CSPAP research, theory and practice. It provides the most in-depth look at the model available. An international team of leaders in the field offer guidance and understanding of the most prominent concepts, issues and developments in the field. This guidance goes beyond the CSPAP model, as they also delve into assessment, evaluation, advocacy, policy, partnerships, international perspectives, technology and more. Organised into six parts, the first half of the text explores the history of the model, factors that impact programme design and the effectiveness of established programmes. The second half the text looks at programming for urban and rural setting, assessing a school community’s needs and the tools and potential of using technology to deliver and assess CSPAP efforts. Each chapter offers current research, knowledge gaps and directions for recommendations and applications, case studies and questions for discussion. Comprehensive School Physical Activity is an all-in-one resource that helps schools use strategies to sustain successful physical activity initiatives through CSPAP.
