The Active School program was designed to positively impact health and academic-related outcomes in school. The core intervention component was physically active academic lessons, a teaching activity that combines physical activity and educational content. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a 10-month, cluster-randomized controlled trial on physical activity level and aerobic fitness conducted in the city of Stavanger, Norway, in 2014-15. The physical activity level during physically active academic lessons was also studied. A total of 447 children (9-10 years) participated. The weekly intervention consisted of physically active academic lessons, physically active homework and physically active recess. Physical activity level and aerobic fitness were measured objectively by accelerometry and a 10-minute interval running test. Intervention effects were found for time in moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA) (adjusted mean difference of 8 min/day, 95% CI: 3.4-13, p < 0.001) and total physical activity (60 counts/min, 95% CI: 15-105, p = 0.009). Children with low aerobic fitness increased their running distance compared to controls (d = 0.46; p = 0.001). During physically active academic lessons children spent 26% of the time in MVPA, which was comparable to physical education lessons. The Active School program successfully increased physical activity for the intervention group and aerobic fitness for the least fit children. The activity level during physically active academic lessons was as high as in physical education lessons. Clinicaltrail.gov ID identifier: NCT03436355.
“活力校园”项目旨在对学校中的健康及学业相关成果产生积极影响。其核心干预部分是体育活动学术课程,这是一种将体育活动与教育内容相结合的教学活动。本研究的目的是调查2014 - 15年在挪威斯塔万格市进行的一项为期10个月的整群随机对照试验对身体活动水平和有氧适能的影响。同时也研究了体育活动学术课程期间的身体活动水平。共有447名9至10岁的儿童参与。每周的干预措施包括体育活动学术课程、体育活动家庭作业和体育活动课间休息。通过加速度计和10分钟间歇跑步测试客观测量身体活动水平和有氧适能。在中度至剧烈身体活动(MVPA)时间方面发现了干预效果(调整后平均差异为8分钟/天,95%置信区间:3.4 - 13,p < 0.001)以及总身体活动(60计数/分钟,95%置信区间:15 - 105,p = 0.009)。与对照组相比,有氧适能低的儿童增加了跑步距离(d = 0.46;p = 0.001)。在体育活动学术课程期间,儿童在MVPA中花费的时间占26%,这与体育课相当。“活力校园”项目成功提高了干预组的身体活动水平以及最不适儿童的有氧适能。体育活动学术课程期间的活动水平与体育课一样高。Clinicaltrail.gov ID标识符:NCT03436355。
