Capitalize on teens' fascination with technology "Heart
Education: Strategies, Lessons, Science, and Technology for
Cardiovascular Fitness" uses heart monitoring technology to help
students learn concepts of cardiovascular fitness in a fun and
innovative way. With the benefits of immediate and constant
feedback, heart rate monitoring technology provides an engaging way
for students to monitor their exercise sessions.
"Heart Education" is based on the author's principles of Heart
Zones Education, a comprehensive cardiovascular fitness program for
physical education that examines wellness from the viewpoints of
health, fitness, and athletic performance. Designed for students
ages 11 to 18, "Heart Education" incorporates key aspects of the
middle school and high school texts of "Healthy Hearts in the Zone"
with the most current information on training and technology.
"Heart Education's" 10-step program provides a series of modules
with lesson plans, making it simple to present and easy to learn.
The program gets students using heart monitors from the start,
letting them experience the rush of seeing their heart rate
display. Students will learn functions of heart monitoring, how to
apply them based on individual heart rate data, and how to set
realistic physical activity goals. Teachers and students can choose
from over 20 health and fitness workouts and apply strategies for
athletic performance training using heart zones.
"Heart Education" also tackles emotional fitness with structured
plans to reduce stress, build positive connections with others, and
contribute to a stable emotional outlook throughout the turbulent
adolescent years. Also featured are lessons incorporating heart
zones concepts into popular outdoor recreation activities such as
adventure racing, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, geocaching,
and orienteering.
This guidebook features
- a lesson plan finder for easy reference to each lesson and its
accompanying student materials;
- a web resource containing all worksheets, station cards,
training logs, and other forms for easy printing;
- additional resources including a hardware guide for heart rate
monitors, troubleshooting tips, and a series of circuit training
stations for reassessment; and
- recommended health assessments that support the strategies of
the Heart Zone Training (HZT) system.
Although some forms of technology may be viewed as contributing
to an overall decline in physical activity, heart rate monitoring
technology can provide a way to empower students to reach their
personal health and fitness goals. "Heart Education: Strategies,
Lessons, Science, and Technology for Cardiovascular Fitness" can
help you maximize students' activity time with appealing,
technology-based tools and scientifically sound strategies to
positively affect their cardiovascular fitness.
