Higher Education in Sport in Europe
Higher Education in Sport in Europe is a topical subject in several respects: academic sport education in European countries as an integral part of the European Higher Education Area on the one hand and sport itself as the subject matter of European politics on the other. This book illustrates both aspects against the backdrop of the European education reform processes (Bologna Process, Lisbon Strategy, Lifelong Learning, European Qualification Framework etc.) with focus on the Thematic Network Project "Aligning a European Higher Education Structure in Sport Science". The four-year project (2003 - 2007) has set up future guidelines for sport curricula in Sport Coaching, Health & Fitness, Sport Management and Physical Education in order to combine the academic quality and the European dimension with relevance to the labour market. This approach points to the ongoing proactive role played by Higher Education institutions.
Revisiting "Social Factors"
Research in Social Factors, also called Environment and Behavior Studies or Person-Environment Relations, is research into the human experience of the built environment. Even since its heyday in the 1970s and 1980s, as a response to the perceived failures of Modernism, Social Factors continues to ask questions about how people use space, and what meaning that space holds. This edited collection brings together cutting-edge research and contemporary issues into one book. Divided into two parts, the chapters in this collection demonstrate the continuing relevance of, and the wide array of topics in, the field. The first section, History and Future Outlook, addresses the field itself, investiga...

Physical Activity and Educational Achievement
A growing body of research evidence suggests that physical activity can have a positive effect on educational achievement. This book examines a range of processes associated with physical activity that are of relevance to those working in education – including cognition, learning, memory, attention, mood, stress and mental health symptoms – and draws on the latest insights from exercise neuroscience to help explain the evidence. With contributions from leading scientists and educationalists from around the world, this book cuts through the myths to interrogate the relationship between physical activity and educational achievement in children, adolescents and young adults in a variety of ...
