Measurement of Physical Activity in Physical Education Through Technology - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Measurement of Physical Activity in Physical Education Through Technology provides a comprehensive, evidence-based guide for implementing technology to measure and enhance children’s physical activity (PA) in educational settings. It includes PA and physical assessment methods in physical education (PE) with contemporary technologies and emerging AI applications to help educators optimize activity levels, prevent sedentary behavior, support holistic child development, and address the global childhood physical inactivity crisis through accessible, practical, and ethically grounded approaches.

While sports science has extensively adopted monitoring technology for athletes, and educational technology literature exists broadly, no comprehensive resource bridges these domains specifically for PE. This cutting-edge new book addresses this critical knowledge gap at the intersection of technology, PA measurement, and educational pedagogy.

With contemporary and forward-looking content, and a holistic developmental perspective addressing multiple developmental outcomes such as motor, cognitive, social-emotional, and health, Measurement of Physical Activity in Physical Education Through Technology recognizes PE’s role beyond physical fitness to encompass whole-child development and broader educational objectives. As such, this book is key reading for final-year undergraduate and master’s students in PE teacher education, PE pedagogy, children’s PA, or educational technology programs.
