This document summarizes research on promoting physical activity in Orange County schools from an interdisciplinary perspective. It examines the issue through the lenses of health psychology, social psychology, leadership, and business. It discusses both agreements and conflicts between disciplines in addressing children's physical activity. The document also reviews Florida's physical education mandates, benefits of physical activity for children, and parental and teacher support for daily physical education. Finally, it proposes several programs and strategies Orange County schools could implement to increase students' physical activity.
Why is PDHPE important? Is it not just teaching sport and passing it off as more???
What if I told you it was far more then that?!?! What if it was a life lesson on individuality and team work and decision making as well as kicking a footy with your mates?
Maybe... Just maybe it is...

The talk highlights the benefits of green space access in school settings for behavioral and performance outcomes. It presents two studies both carried out in deprived schools in Central Scotland; the first compares the effect of indoor versus outdoor education (delivered in a forest setting) on a range of wellbeing outcomes in teenagers; the second study explores the benefits to memory recall in early years pupils from curriculum tasks carried out indoors versus outdoors in a range of playground settings.
Technology at the Forefront of Future Sport Engagement StrategiesAshley Casey
A critical discussion of technologies place in future sporting strategies. This keynote presentation was given at the Future Directions in Physical Education Research and Practice symposium at Leeds Beckett University on Friday 8th July 2016. It crucially explores the future of physical education and school sport as represented in the Youth Sport Trust's class of 2035 report.

Research in physical education suggests that things are not changing as they might (and perhaps haven't for forty years). In short, we are living out our own collective "Groundhog Day". This keynote will explore some of these repetitive messages and what we can do about them. It's a whistle stop tour, but one that hopefully takes us toward greater benefits for our students.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
1. Dedication
This project is dedicated to my
Godfather, who has a family that
struggled with obesity. Now we are in
the process of opening As I Am
Community Center and desire to
implement this information in the
workings to help children be healthy.
One step at a time to change of lives of
children day by day.

3. What can the Orange County
School district do to promote
physical activity?
by
Ashley Hampton
IDS4934
7/31/2012 3
4. What disciplines are examined for this
research question?
• Health psychology
(How physical activity affects the body)
• Social psychology
( How the environment can play a factor)
• Leadership
(What leads or motivates children to
participate)
• Business
(Funding and structure of the programs)
7/31/2012 4
5. What is interdisciplinary research?
• Combining or involving two or more
disciplines to while looking for or analyzing a
question and/or problem.
• Basically this type of research goes beyond
one perspective and looks at the same subject
from various points of view.
7/31/2012 5
6. How are all of this disciplines in agreement?
(Common ground)
• Yes, children need exercise, but what dictates these habits or where children learn
certain traits vary?
• Social Psychology theorizes that children learn from their surrounding
environments.
• Health Psychology deals with gene-environment interactions and eating behaviors.
• Leadership is in the realm of who will direct the children to exercise which can
stem from the school, friends, family, and eating habits.
• Business, as far as schools are concerned, would work with the school board to
rearrange teaching techniques to incorporate physical activity and/or making time
for recess and gym.
• The basis of the common ground between the disciplines is the agreement that
children should exercise and do need to be healthy.
7/31/2012 6
7. What are the conflicts between these
disciplines?
The main conflicts within the disciplines
mostly deal mostly with leadership. Many
people believe that the initiation of children
participating in physical activity should come
from home and through the school system. Is
helping children be healthy the responsibility
of parents, the schools, or both?
7/31/2012 7
8. What’s wrong with the physical
education that already is in schools?
• Physical education in schools are flexible but they don’t
have detailed guidelines.
• Physical education classes can be taught by teachers that
aren’t licensed or certified.
• Most physical education requirements can be met online.
• There are no exams or testing to measure what the
students are learning.
7/31/2012 8
9. Cost/Injurie
• A lot of physical activity programs have been cut
or suspended due to a lack of funding. The cost of
a gym facility, equipment, and upkeep was big
enough to be taken out of some budgets. Schools
would rather spend money on books instead.
• Along with add physical activity is injuries, the
need for nurses, more supplies, and
precautionary measures. All of these needs add
to the cost of having physical activity programs.
7/31/2012 9
10. Florida’s Mandates on School’s
Physical Activity
• At least 150 minutes of physical education per week (average of 30
minutes per day) in grades K-5, but it does not require daily recess.
– Everyday physical activity is not required (NASPE 27)!
• Mandates physical education in grades 6-8, but does not specify minutes
per week.
– So any amount of time is ok?
• The state does not require the use of specific curricula for elementary or
middle school/junior/high (NASPE 29).
– Other subjects have specific curriculum, why is physical education any
different?
• The state allows required physical education credits to be earned through
online physical education courses (NASPE 31)
– How is it truly physical activity if you only have to sit in front of a computer to
complete it?
7/31/2012 10
11. Florida’s Mandates on School’s
Physical Activity Cont’d
• The state does not require student assessment in physical
education physical education is not included as one of the
subject areas on student report cards (U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention 10).
– Why would children take a school subject seriously if they are
not tested on the information and activities that they learn?
– If there is no type of assessment, then how can you measure
what children have retained?
• Certification or licensure of physical education teachers is
required only at the high school level (NASPE 30).
– So teachers that may have no knowledge of physical education
can be over a class at the elementary and middle school levels?
7/31/2012 11
12. Why is physical activity even
important?
• The U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) has noted a direct correlation
between regular physical activity and health
among children and adolescents (U.S. Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention, 7-10).
• Aids in preventing childhood obesity and chronic
disease(P-J, Naylor 11).
• If the First Lady of the United States, who has
several issues to contend with, is traveling around
our country and implementing ‘Let's Move’ after
school programs, that really does speak volumes
about the need for physical education!
7/31/2012 12
13. What can physical activity develop in
children?
• Muscle strength, coordination, and a new way
of interacting with social skills through
physical activity.
• Children learn how to make decisions,
cooperate, compete constructively, assume
leader/follower roles and resolve conflicts by
interacting in play (Barney 10).
• Play is an essential element of children’s
physical and social development.
7/31/2012 13
14. What information states that parents
and teachers support physical
education?
• According to one survey, nearly all parents (95%) think
that regular daily physical activity helps children do
better academically and should be part of a school
curriculum for all students in grades K-12 (NASPE 15).
• Three out of four parents (76%) think that more school
physical education could help control or prevent
childhood obesity (NASPE 9).
• The majority of parents believe that physical education
is at least as important as other academic subjects. The
percentages range from 54% to 84%, depending on the
subject being compared (NASPE 10).
7/31/2012 14
15. Is physical activity the schools
responsibility?
• Some say parents should start habits of exercise at home.
Schools should have to take school time for
recess, sports, P.E., and gym.
• The school’s responsibility is to give children a good
education, not giving them time play and be active.
• These activities should be done during the rest of the day
while the child is out of school.
• If healthy habits and traits are enforced at home, those will
over flow to when the child is at school as well. There
aren’t enough hours in a school day to spend it on playing
around.
7/31/2012 15
16. Shouldn’t schools spend time teaching
children instead of giving them time to
play?
• Daily physical education has a positive correlation
with academic performance and attitude toward
school.
• There are several significant patterns of
interaction between body motion and speech
that demonstrate a role for the body in cognition.
ideas of embodied cognition and demonstrates
how students can use their own embodied
experience to understand the world (Noble 10).
7/31/2012 16
17. What can Orange County do?
• Incorporate Action Schools (AS)
– Action Schools an active school model that provided
schools with training and resources to increase
children's Physical Activity (Mackey 340).
• Planned instructional program with specific objectives.
• Child care providers, recreation staff and coaches
need training to provide developmentally
appropriate, safe and enjoyable activities (AHA
12).
7/31/2012 17
18. What can Orange County do? Cont’d
• Include programs such as:
Health education
Elementary school recess
After-school physical activity clubs and intramurals,
High school interscholastic athletics,
Walk/bike-to-school programs, and
Staff wellness programs
7/31/2012 18
19. Backing of this effort!
• School initiatives must be supported and
reinforced in other community settings(P-
J, Naylor 11).
• With the backing of the White House and the
First Lady, more resources can and probably
will be dedicated to this issue.
7/31/2012 19
20. Have these programs been successful?
• A 2007-08 study of more than 2.4 million Texas students found that
students who were physically fit were more likely to do well on the
state’s standardized tests than students who were not physically
fit(Texas Education Agency 15).
• In 2009, the New York City Health Department and Department of
Education reported that physical fitness was associated with higher
academic achievement among their public school
students(Sherman, Clay P., Cynthia Tran, and Alves 12).
• 2010 CDC report analyzes a large body of evidence linking physical
education and school-based physical activity with academic
performance, including cognitive skills and attitudes, academic
behaviors and academic achievement (Sun, Haichun 220).
