The field investigating the relationship between physical activity and cognition has considerably evolved in recent years. This has led to an increasingly differentiated view on this phenomenon, challenging the notion of overall cognitive and academic benefits of regular physical activity for school-aged children, with renewed questioning of…

One of the tools middle school SBAE teachers can use to deliver the total program is research-based SAEs, for which students can receive recognition through the FFA Agriscience Fair. This study examined why middle school SBAE teachers implemented the FFA Agriscience Fair into their programs. This study built on previous literature in this area,…

This article describes an in-class exercise that can be used when teaching zoning law to a Real Estate Law or Legal Environment of Business undergraduate course. The exercise requires students to utilize Salt Lake City's zoning code to locate the best site for a restaurant chain given certain locational and operational requirements, and to…

Purpose: Asset-based pedagogy (ABP) values what students bring to the classroom and is responsive to their individual needs. Yet teachers, particularly beginners, fail to integrate these types of strategies throughout K-12 classrooms. It is imperative to explore to what extent beginning teachers understand ABP as well as the variation within who…

Background: Physical activity is important for children's physical, mental and cognitive wellbeing, but many children are insufficiently active. Schools offer a promising setting in which to enable positive health behaviours and teachers can play an influential role in facilitating pupils' physical activity. The aim of this study was to use…

This paper details findings from our research into girls' and non-binary young people's take-up of skateboarding during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our analysis contributes to wider discussions on gendered relations, young people's embodied capacities and leisure adaptations in response to ongoing changes such as the pandemic. Based on qualitative…

This study focuses on designing a project-based learning module for early science education for home-based learning. The module comprises four dimensions: plants, planets, magnets and robotics, and weather. Using a quantitative approach and the design and development research (DDR) method, 15 early childhood education (ECE) experts were surveyed…

The traditional approach to using videos involves the so-called "movie sandwich," which focuses on the use of a single video clip. Based on analogical learning research, we highlight the possible benefits of constructing what we term a "video bridge," which consists of two analogous videos that are linked by important themes of…

Background: In the international sport pedagogical discourse, practising is a marginal research topic. Nevertheless, it should be considered as an elementary component of PE. To fill this gap, we discuss the international discourse against the background of Bildung-theoretical work on practising in German-language educational studies and sport…

Background: The positive impact of physical activity on health is widely known. A comparison between activPAL objective measures and International Physical Activity Questionnaire short form (IPAQ-SF) self-reported activity levels was completed with older adults with intellectual disability. Understanding differences between the two methodologies…

This study compared the weekly training load (TL) variation across different measures. Fifty-two runners reported their heart rate and distance ran for each training session during four weeks of training. Heart rate measures were used to calculate the weekly TRaining IMPulse (W-TRIMP), whereas the distance ran was used to calculate the weekly…

Upper body force-velocity profiles to assess musculoskeletal performance are created using release speed (RS) of the barbell in a bench press throw (BPT). A more easily obtained variable is peak speed (PS) measured by a linear position transducer. We assessed the validity of predicting RS from measured PS. One hundred and seventy-eight throws from…

Dealing with competitive situations is part of our everyday lives. Learning to participate constructively in competitive situations may, therefore, be important for citizens in a society. Although physical education may help in such an endeavor, competitive activities inspired by sports competition may not be the best solution. This article seeks…
