Physical Activity Across the Curriculum (PAAC 3):Teacher vs. Remotely Delivered Classroom Physical Activity Breaks
September 1, 2020 updated by: University of Kansas Medical Center
The study is designed to compare two methods of delivering short (~10 min) physical activity breaks that will occur during the regular school day for 3 years.
Schools will be randomized to deliver physical activity breaks led by either the regular classroom teacher or by a remote instructor through a video in the classroom.
Both delivery methods will promote a variety of whole body movements using large muscle groups.
The schools will not be able to choose which group (regular teacher or remote instructor) they will be part of.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: PAAC-R
Physical Activity Across the Curriculum-Remote (PAAC-R) will include protocol specific activity breaks delivered remotely via a television in the classroom.
|
Activity breaks will be designed for delivery in the classroom without reconfiguration of the classroom space.
Activities will emphasize whole body movements, using large muscle groups.
Each break includes multiple activities.
Each activity lasts about 2 minutes.
There will be a total of about 20 minutes of physical activity done each school day.
|
Experimental: PAAC-T
Physical Activity Across the Curriculum-Teacher (PAAC-T) will include protocol specific activity breaks delivered by the classroom teacher.
|
Activity breaks will be designed for delivery in the classroom without reconfiguration of the classroom space.
Activities will emphasize whole body movements, using large muscle groups.
Each break includes multiple activities.
Each activity lasts about 2 minutes.
There will be a total of about 20 minutes of physical activity done each school day.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) time during activity breaks
Time Frame: Year 3
|
Measure will be calculated as the average number of minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) during the period of activity breaks.
Measure will be captured using an accelerometer.
