Why do children sit down to learn? Traditional learning approaches limit educational creativity and academic performance, while also negatively impacting on physical activity and health. Physically Active Learning combines movement and learning. Initial research proves positive impacts on academic performance, classroom behaviour and cognition.
Bryn Llewellyn worked in various schools in Yorkshire as a teacher and school leader, during which time he was increasingly concerned that the test-driven curriculum was having a negative effect on levels of inactivity and obesity. With this in mind, working with teachers and children, Bryn set about creating active learning approaches for Mathematics and English. In 2012, he founded Tagtiv8 Ltd.
Andy Daly-Smith is a Senior Lecturer at Leeds Beckett University. Beginning working life as a Sport Scientist, he soon realised that changing people’s lives through physical activity was more important than improving the performance of a few. At LBU, Andy leads a research unit focussed on understanding the impact, implementation and feasibility of physically active learning in schools. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
