Sažetak
There are alarming worldwide trends that demonstrate a high prevalence of physical inactivity among children and adolescents. One of the health threatening consequences of the insufficient level of physical activity for children and youth is certainly the high prevalence of overweight and obesity. Physical education classes cannot solve the obesity epidemic on their own, but physical education plays an especially important role because it can help students adopt and mintain healthy habits and physical activitiy behaviours. Physical Education and New Technologies provides a review of new directions in physical education worldwide. The book offers information regarding contemporary practices and models in physical education. We hope that the book will offer a basis to inform and improve current practices throghout the world. Authors from across the globe have contributed chapters examining the importance of using technology in physical education. The goal of the book is to draw together experts from throught the world to offer anexposition of using new technologies in the field of physical education. It is our hope that by sharing such information that gains can be made in combating the universal problem of obesity and overweight and in strenghtening health and physical education pedagogy as an important component of the school curriculum.
