Methods： A total of 53 urban fourth grade children were divided into two groups, with one group playing DDR and the other group engaged in aerobic dance. After 15 min, the groups switched activities and continued their respective activities for another 15 min. Participants wore NL- 1000 pedometers in four consecutive sessions, and responded to a questionnaire measuring their self-efficacy and enjoyment toward two dance activities at the end of the first session. Results： Children spent more moderate-to-vigorous PA （MVPA） time （p 〈 0.01, 72 = 0.49） in aerobic dance than DDR. Additionally, children reported significantly higher self-efficacy （p 〈 0.001, 72 = 0.28） and enjoyment （p 〈 0.01, η2 = 0.18） in DDR than in aerobic dance. Conclusion： Health care professionals and educators may not replace the traditional PAs and sports with interactive video games, but may use exergaming as an excellent addition to promote PA.

According to Whitehead（2010）, physical literacy is defined by motivation, especially by competence-based and interest-based motivation. This point of view is consistent with vast amount of research evidence on children and adolescents＇ physical activity behavior. In the article I attempt to interpret and operationalize physical literacy from a perspective that children＇s motivation in physical education is both an innate mental disposition and an acquired/learned attribute. Particularly I rely on the conceptual learning theory and motivation regulation mechanisms of the self-determination theory to argue that in physical education, children should experience tasks that inspire them to embody competence and interest along with self-regulation strategies necessary for developing and sustaining the motivation to move.展开更多

How to do active in basketball injury prevention, learning first aid knowledge after injury, will be beneficial in the school＇ s basketball further popularization and development.展开更多

The reform of aerobics teaching in colleges and universities should be geared to the demands of the times, and explore new innovation and continual development. In this paper, using the research methods of documentation, courseware development, teaching experiment and mathematical statistics, we study on the making and application of college aerobics network teaching courseware. It is revealed that, with the combination of modem network technology and college aerobics teaching, the resulted college aerobics network teaching courseware is the important media to not only upgrades college aerobics teaching quality, but also help develop students＇ habits of doing physical exercise, and promote physical health. Therefore, this is meaningful and practical in promoting the education of college students in physical quality development.展开更多
