Despite known benefits, barriers to meaningful public involvement remain and further studies are needed to understand how it can be embedded throughout public health research evaluations across diverse contexts. AIM: To understand how public involvement has been embedded across 10 evaluations…
The promise of teacher-led physical activity strategies informed by pupil data
Background: Physical activity is important for children’s physical, mental and cognitive wellbeing, but many children are insufficiently active.

The aim of this study was to use pupils’ physical activity data from wearables to inform teacher-led strategies to improve pupils’ physical …
Primary School Pupils' Perceptions and Experiences of Wearable Technologies
BACKGROUND: Wearable technologies offer new opportunities to address in-school physical inactivity. However, children are often excluded from discussing issues which directly impact them, including the use of wearable technologies in a school setting. Thus, the aim of this study is to understand primary school pupils' experiences and perceptions of using wearable physical activity monitoring technologies within schools. METHODS: Nine semi-structu…

In addition to their primary role as educators, teachers are often regarded as being well-placed to make vital contributions to inclusive visions of physical activity promotion. With the dramatic increase in popularity of wearable technologies for physical activity promotion in recent years, there i…
