Assignment 1

Lack of Physical Education 1.)	All the information that has been put on this page is relevant to the idea of schools not having enough money in their budgets for physical education. 2.)	This page was last edited on January 27, 2019 and most of the information seems up to date with current standards. There could be more information added as to what kids could do instead to get their exercise in during the school day if their schools don’t have the budget for P.E 3.)	There could be more information on what happens when kids don’t exercise and how it affects their education, and learning in the classroom. 4.) The article is neutral and not sexist or biased towards one race or another. There aren’t many claims. The article just explains how the lack of physical education within school systems can affect the child’s ability to grow and earn. 5.)	Overall throughout this piece, all viewpoints are relatively represented in a way in which the topics are discussed thoroughly and aren’t over talked about. I feel as if, talking about other countries and their ideas on physical education a little more could have made this article more effective and allowed the viewer to gain a wider perspective on how the world outside of America views physical activity in correspondence to education. 6.)	The citations that I had check and clicked on are valid links and do indeed support the claims that the article makes. There was no information in the Article about physical education that did not pertain to the topic discussed. 7.)	There are also a lot of credible authors and editors to this piece which makes this article reliable. Some authors that edited this piece include those from Stanford, the government regulation about health and fitness in Canada as well as United States and China.

'''These are solid reflections. (DB) 5/5''' Assignment 2

When researching my topic on Physical Education in relation to education in grade school and secondary school, I had found a couple articles that capture my attention and were really beneficial to my topic that I would like to talk about. The first one being Lack of Physical Education, then Physical Education, and finally, Neurological effects of Physical Exercise.

The first articles tone had a tone which I perceived, (There is a problem that needs to be resolved.) This article talks about, how physical education is lacking in foreign countries, and needs to be addressed to promote a healthier learning environment to set up success for in the future. This article talks about how children ages 11-17 don’t meet the minimum recommend 60 minutes per day exercise, that’s needed to help cognitive brain functions and keep students both academically and physically active. The articles content is relative to the topic in a way which issues are addressed and how they can be fixed. The article also discusses the negative health issues that come with lack of exercise and how that could impact students later on in their futures evidently leading to sedentary lifestyles which lacks physical exercise. The article is written neutrally and does not have a biased part within it. Mostly facts are associated within this piece. All the citations to this article are reliable and are credible, as well as each claim having a citation attached to it.

The second article I addressed talks about physical education as a whole. It defines physical education, addresses problems associate with physical education and offers ideas to improve yours as well. The article cites the Center for disease Control (CDC) as well as other world sites dealing with education and fitness. It also talks about the child nutrition act of 2004 as well as the National Association for Sports and physical education. This article contains content that does relate to the topic discussed. Not ever claim has a citation, and I feel as if I could add a little more to this page and cite more evidence to help improve it. The citations it does have are reliable and based off the information the article gives, I feel as if this is a good article to work with because I can add more to the topic.

The third and final article I would like to address would be the article on Neurological benefits of Physical Exercise. This is a well written article and covers a lot on the benefits of physical activity and the benefits of being active. It also talks about how it promotes memory and stimulates the brain to help you grow to expand knowledge. This article remains on point throughout the whole piece and doesn’t come off topic. There are two sections where more information is needed and those relate to Parkinson’s disease and Brain Cancers. This is a very hard subject to add too, but with some research, I feel as if I could add some insightful information on how exercise can lead to disease free lifestyle and help you continue to learn in the future. All of the important claims have been sited with reliable sources. The article is neutrally written and is not biased at all

Research question:

“Doing” Research- Research Questions

Sedentary lifestyles are dangerous and a lot of health risks are associated with living like this. Physical activity and exercise are learned actions, and if not installed into children at a young age, it could lead to future health problems. Lack of physical education is a big issue among school systems all across the globe. Exercise and physical activity helps stimulates the brain and promotes learning, so why are we limiting physical activity in schools? How does physical activity help promote learning in the classroom and education in the future?

'''Good start--now just be sure these are areas that need to be further addressed. (DB) 5/5'''

Revisions for peer review (added info)

Lead:

Physical Education, also known as Phys Ed, PE, gym or gym class, and known in many Commonwealth countries as physical training, or PT, is an educational course relate to maintaining the human body through physical education. It is taken during primary and secondary education and encourages psychomotor learning in a play or movement exploration setting to promote health.

Physical Education programs vary all over the world. Guidelines and regularities differ from region to region and is interoperated differently. However, there are worldwide organizations that allow for a better understanding on how much exercise a child should be getting daily.

“Technology used in Physical Education” ( Paragrpah 2)

Simulators are an efficient way to help promote being active in certain settings. Along with video projectors, GPS and game systems such as Kinect and Wii, simulators where the participant is using goggles to be put in a certain setting are beneficial. One method commonly used in the elderly that could benefit children would be a horse-riding simulator. This simulator allows the participant to be put into a country setting where they are free to roam multiple fields. This simulator is scientifically proven to help balance as well as stability. Relaxing the brain allows for better cognitive function leads to better test results in the classroom as well.

North America

In North America, there are certain guidelines as to how much exercise a child needs per day to stay fit. The American Heart Association recommends that kids and teens (ages 6-17) get at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity every day."

Around the World

After 5thparagraph citation

“Children have a primary responsibility of attending school and providing evidence that they are achieving the content standards of their given grade level. If children engage in unhealthy behaviors like poor eating habits, obtaining an insufficient amount of sleep, or overindulging in screen time or other sedentary behaviors, they are less likely to experience developmentally appropriate learning”

Citatin for nontraditional sports.

Non Traditional sports add benefits and challenges for those who often get easily distracted, uncoordinated, or simply just uninterested. Its important to include all children in every Physical Education activity because no child should be left out.
