Popis | Hypoactivity and sedentary lifestyle are pandemic problems across all population groups and regions. The objective is to describe current trend of physical activity (PA) and to integrate motivational factors to everyday life. The aim of the study is to find, discover or establish algorithm how to evaluate PA characteristics and give pupils, their parents, and their teachers a fast feedback about daily PA by using modern digital technologies. We designed a method that can provide well-timed information about the activity of a child, which is useful especially for their parents to help them prevent children from negative impacts of PA insufficiency. The method also provides data that can help the pedagogical process to be more active and to change stereotypes in schoolchild behaviour. The research is focused on pupils at the age of 7–9 years and the method will be used in a post-doctoral project to collect data from elementary schools in the Czech Republic. |
