Recently the NYT reported on research linking exercise and learning. The specific study they looked at here is a small-scale one that demonstrated that college students exposed to foreign language instruction while riding stationary bicycles learned better than those sitting at desks, but there is more research that makes the link. A takeaway would seem to be that the idea some districts have had of eliminating recess in favor of more hours of instruction probably isn't a good one, while programs that get students moving, such as this one, probably are. https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/16/well/move/how-exercise-could-help-you-learn-a-new-language.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.nytimes.com_2017_08_16_well_move_how-2Dexercise-2Dcould-2Dhelp-2Dyou-2Dlearn-2Da-2Dnew-2Dlanguage.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=byefhD2ZumMFFQYPZBagUCDuBiM9Q9twmxaBM0hCgII&r=C0P2h5qQ1SowMumdd53CAeGZFuCs-hJp41RWn5MbCp4&m=pgcB3jxk2t5ado_hHjeB_L5P_dWQ8JRMq7RaJeQiDc0&s=wr1vq2nwOOFs5CUmRDl9vLchn3-wY7QyeWGzgDNb7Fs&e=> On Mon, Oct 16, 2017 at 7:42 AM, Meiers, Steven via Bikies <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: http://www.nbc15.com/video?vid=450836253<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.nbc15.com_video-3Fvid-3D450836253&d=DwMFaQ&c=byefhD2ZumMFFQYPZBagUCDuBiM9Q9twmxaBM0hCgII&r=C0P2h5qQ1SowMumdd53CAeGZFuCs-hJp41RWn5MbCp4&m=pgcB3jxk2t5ado_hHjeB_L5P_dWQ8JRMq7RaJeQiDc0&s=59QcM2Y7_mA4R79BuClB56IvzsQkdECX8qpFuYEUei8&e=> Steve Meiers Safety educator (608) 267-1102<tel:(608)%20267-1102> Box 2986 Madison WI 53701 [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> _______________________________________________ Bikies mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://lists.danenet.org/listinfo.cgi/bikies-danenet.org<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__lists.danenet.org_listinfo.cgi_bikies-2Ddanenet.org&d=DwMFaQ&c=byefhD2ZumMFFQYPZBagUCDuBiM9Q9twmxaBM0hCgII&r=C0P2h5qQ1SowMumdd53CAeGZFuCs-hJp41RWn5MbCp4&m=pgcB3jxk2t5ado_hHjeB_L5P_dWQ8JRMq7RaJeQiDc0&s=y4eKk1UjAiaoHKIAgpEzik6HawFABFP1ekBDgOJnXzY&e=> -- S.
