Is there a body in the 21st century school?

Research output: Contribution to journalArticle

Abstract

How should we think about the body in the 21st century? As a PDHPE (personal development, health and physical education) lecturer, my main concern is to encourage teaching-learning practices that recognize the pivotal importance of an active lifestyle for a healthy life in a society that each day is becoming more sedentary. What is the place of the body among an ever-increasing amount of new technology which demands a great amount of time sitting in front of a computer? I certainly do not have the answer; however, I have some insights to start the dialogue.
