The purpose of this book is to promote healthy physical activity choices among physical education teachers and students through the integration of technology. Technology can help to reduce the frequency of sedentary behaviours by assessing physical fitness, monitoring student progress toward personal goals, refining motor skills, comprehending new concepts and increasing enjoyment of physical activity.Teachers play a valuable role in the selection and integration of technology. Students who know how to use technology to promote and gain an understanding of key concepts related to physical activity, opposed to using technology exclusively for sedentary entertainment, would benefit greatly.There is also a bound-in DVD that literally walks the reader through many of the programmes described in the book. All examples of technology use are directly related to physical education and use in physical activity settings.
