Download or read book Educating the Student Body written by Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.

Book excerpt: The High/Scope Institute for IDEAS began in the early 1960s as a summer camp program and is now a dynamic learning program for teens that emphasizes working with them in an environment which supports emotional, social, and intellectual development. The High/Scope model for adolescent programs is based on the following principles: (1) adolescents need a safe psychological environment; (2) adolescents need a chance to make new beginnings; (3) adolescents need program activities designed to relate to their developmental stages; and (4) adolescents need to be given genuine responsibility. This book describes the High/Scope model in the following chapters: (1) "The High/Scope Institute for IDEAS Program--The Beginnings and Evolution," giving the history of the institute along with its philosophy and long- and short-term benefits; (2) "Who Are the Participants and What Do They Need?" focusing on developmental characteristics, tasks and developmental gains, and meeting adolescent needs; (3) "Creating a Supportive Context for Learning," outlining the program schedule and daily routine and also discussing psychological and physical safety, expectations, and adult participation; (4) "The Educational Approach," dealing with the five essential components of choice, active learning, plan-do-review, cooperative learning, and leadership development; (5) "Learning Potential Within the Institute Setting"; and (6) "Lessons Learned: Beyond the High/Scope Institute Model."
