Summary
Population based intervention at elementary school setting aimed at contributing, to a major extent, to health education and health promotion for children aged approximately 5-10 years in Germany. Health education units with theoretical and practical exercises for use by teachers, children, and parents addresses physical activity, sedentary behavior, relaxation, nutrition, personal hygiene and body awareness. Main questions of the pilot are: Does health promotion take on an important role in primary schools? How do teachers evaluate training materials, homepage, content and framework conditions? How do teachers assess the efficiency of teaching units?
Detailed description
The program is based on actual cognitions and methods of the early education science. In the pilot phase study part (3/2013-5/2013) the investigators evaluated 210 classes of five states in Germany: NRW, Thüringen, Berlin, Sachsen-Anhalt, Schleswig-Holstein. The long-term aim of this project is to provide an innovative concept based on current concepts in social studies and science that addresses health education of pupils in elementary schools.
