3. A Settings Approach Promoting Physical Activity: Settings Based Approaches

4. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 A Settings Approach The three key settings for physical activity behaviour change include: Schools Workplaces Community There are multiple types/levels of influence on PA behaviours: Intrapersonal factors Social/cultural factors Physical environments Policies are usually needed to change physical environments

5. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Target domains for PA interventions Social Physical Environment Interpersonal Policy

7. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Social & Interpersonal School Link programs to community programs Active yard-duty where teachers are active role models for students Peer-lead programs where students organise and run activities for other students Play music in a designated dancing area Community Establish walking groups for different age groups Mass media campaign to increase awareness of community programs and facilities Workplace Encourage staff to park further away form building Introduce lunchtime walking groups Schedule active meetings (eg walk and talk about a concept) Introduce one day per week that is casual clothes day to encourage people to be active Organise a ride to work day Enter a work team into a sporting competition

8. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Physical Environment School Install bicycle racks and secure lock up facilities Introduce traffic calming on active transport routes to school Introduce wall and line markings Install activity prompts- courts, basketball rings, goals, gymnasiums, activity areas, playground equipment, cubby houses, hills, logs, trees Community Increase aesthetics of parks & walking trails Increased access to walking trails to specific destinations such as shops, post office, parks, schools, etc Introduce facilities specific for different age groups and cultural interests (eg skate parks and lawn bowls or bocce) Publish distances to walk specific destinations on signs

9. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Workplace Displaying motivational or informative posters, signage or brochures about the benefits of physical activity and some tips on getting active; Promoting and encouraging employees to use the stairs. Use the ‘footprint’ stickers to guide people toward the stairs rather than walking straight to the lift; Promote ‘walking meetings’, lunch-time walks and 5-10 minute walk breaks during the day Providing bicycle racks or alternative secure bicycle storage to encourage people to cycle to work; Providing information on local opportunities for physical activity; Publicising physical activity opportunities through email, company intranet or websites, links to the be active website, noticeboards and newsletters; Purchasing corporate memberships of local fitness centres. Some local fitness centres offer attractive corporate packages which allow employees reduced membership rates; Providing on-site facilities such as gyms (this may be an option for large employers); Providing showers, change room facilities and lockers for those who wish to cycle, walk or jog to work or participate in more vigorous activities in and around the working day; Supporting sports and physical activity clubs such as social football and netball teams, and walking and jogging groups; and Encouraging employees to form corporate teams for events such as Corporate Cup, the be active tour and the Masters Games.

10. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Policy School Mandated minimum time allocation for PE & sport in Government schools Allocated play spaces for various year levels within the school ground Ensure there is activity equipment monitors allocated during breaks Community Consider the provision of active transport routes and access to green space in urban planning of new developments Workplace Subsidise health club memberships for employees. Reduce insurance rates for active and fit employees

12. School Setting-based Programs Promoting Physical Activity: Settings Based Approaches

13. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 School Settings Schools play a major role in shaping children’s attitudes towards PA and living an active lifestyle. Schools encourage lifelong patterns of PA. School based programs are; Moderately effective People who participated in these programs are more likely to be active for life. Print material and school curriculum appears to be the most effective methods. Active after schools program http://www.ausport.gov.au/aasc/index.a sp However PA decreases as students during the secondary years due to a crowded curriculum and student subject choices. Schools can increase PA by; Following government recommendations for time allocated to PE. Providing sufficient sports equipment and facilities / public use. Promoting school sporting events

14. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 What intervention strategies could we do at our school? School sports participation reducing sedentary behaviour active family programs active transport activity In and out of school community links more equipment extra curricula initiatives policy change

15. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Walking School Bus The Walking School Bus Program is a VicHealth initiative that’s giving communities an effective and easy way to get children walking to school again. Today in Victoria nearly one-third of all children spend less than 5 minutes walking per day. Inactive children are more likely to be overweight – with the proportion of Australian children who are in this category now reaching 25%. Walking to and from school gives children the opportunity to engage in regular physical activity. More than 58 Victorian councils have implemented Walking School Bus programs. At least 3200 primary school students from more than 200 primary schools use the Walking School Bus to get to school, with the help of 800 volunteers. The ‘buses’ have become a very positive part of school and community life and offer many health, environmental and safety benefits. Walking School Bus programs can be implemented by schools with the help of your local council.

18. Workplace Setting-based Programs Promoting Physical Activity: Settings Based Approaches

19. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Workplace Settings Promotion of PA at work assists with; Improved morale Increased work productivity Reduced ‘sickies’ Less feeling of being stressed Reduced staff turn over Improved community relations Difficulties include; Lack of interest at management level The size of the organisation Facilities available Lack of support or interest from workers Tips for being more active Take the stairs instead of the lift Go for a walk at lunch time Get off the bus, train or tram one stop early and walk the rest of the way Park the car 15 minutes away and walk the rest of the way Get together with some workmates and form a sports team

20. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Example - Stair use Interventions Research on improvements to stairs: Improved lighting Music Carpet & motivational pictures Point of decision signs Signs- the wealth is health- take the stairs No waiting one door over- take the stairs Findings Almost 10% increase in stair use of a 5 floor building

22. Community Setting-based Programs Promoting Physical Activity: Settings Based Approaches

23. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Community Settings A ‘community’ refers to local groups of people, whole cities or whole nations. Strengthening the communities knowledge and interest in the benefits of physical activity is therefore vital. Possible local influences: Urban design (Town planners) Road characteristics (Transportation) Stairwell characteristics (Architects) Park characteristics (Recreation, landscape architects Crime (Justice & law enforcement Community strategies include; Developing local facilities Use of community venues that encourage physical activity Free health checks at shopping centres Educative sessions for community members on health issues.
