Survey on Attitude of Middle School Educators for Sex and Reproductive Health Education

Objective To get a general picture of the attitudes of middle school educators on sex and reproductive health education. Methods A cross-sectional survey was carried out among 144 middle school educators in three districts of Shanghai from September to October 2005 using anonymous self-administered questionnaire.

Using Teacher Goal Boards to Promote Healthy Eating and Physical Activity among Elementary Students

Background: The purpose of this study was to explore the feasibility and understand the potential impact on elementary students’ perceptions of, and intentions related to, healthy eating and physical activity when their classroom teacher sets and shares goals related to these health behaviors. Methods: Participants in this study included 16 teachers and 229 students of grades 3 - 6 at a large elementary school in the Western United States. Participating students were surveyed before and after a six-week intervention conducted by classroom teachers that consisted of a weekly displaying of Teacher Goal Boards in a prominent classroom location and sharing of goals set for the week. Teacher reports of the previous week’s goals occurred each Monday prior to sharing and posting of new goals for the new week. Results: Respondents reported significantly higher post-test values for over half of pre-post comparisons. Respondents were more likely to intend to be physically active (post = 52.6% vs. pre = 39.0%, p = 0.003), to eat nutritious foods (52.0% vs. 36.4%, p = 0.001), and to maintain a healthy body weight (62.8% vs. 52.2%, p = 0.022). Similar results were found for summary measures. Intention to be physically active, to eat healthy, to maintain a healthy weight, as well as descriptive norms for physical activity and perception and value of personal health behaviors were all significantly higher at post-test. Discussion: This study and its findings are significant because teacher participants were able to significantly and positively impact on students’ behavioral intent, subjective norms, and perception and value of personal health behaviors amongst students without spending additional time on formal health promotion and education instruction. Conclusion: Schools should incentivize and encourage faculty and staff to engage in a variety of health behaviors to improve both personal health outcomes and role model health behaviors for students.

新课标视域下义务教育中体育与健康课程改革的现实问题与实施策略

积极贯彻落实《义务教育体育与健康课程标准(2022年版)》新理念对促进中小学生健康成长、全面发展具有重要意义。新课标视域下,义务教育体育与健康课程目标指向核心素养,其应然表征为系统性、结构性、完整性、情境性。本文采用文献资料法、逻辑分析法等研究方法,以教学目标、教学内容、教学过程、教学情境为分析框架,探讨了义务教育体育与健康课程的现实问题,提出了义务教育体育与健康课程的实施策略。研究认为,义务教育体育与健康课程改革仍然面临教学目标宽泛化、教学内容应试化、教学过程静态化、教学情境虚无化等现实问题。据此,提出了新课标视域下义务教育体育与健康课程改革的实施策略:以核心素养为引领,达成教学目标共识;以破除应试体育为举措,合理设计教学内容;以动静结合为依托,加强教学过程管理;以情境链为逻辑主线,构建真实教学情境。
