The goal of all school activities, irrespective of the individual pupil or his level of maturity, should be directed toward the perpetuation and fostering of a democracy. The present international situation should place a premium on the democratic way of life, and our schools should rededicate their energies in developing pupils whose characteristics are conducive to a democratic way of life.

Background:Increasing access and opportunity for physical activity (PA) in schools are effective; however, not everyone experiences the same effects. Prompting and reinforcement may encourage more frequent participation in recreational PA during the school day. The purpose of this study was to investigate a lunchtime PA intervention on whole school PA participation and whether behavioral support enhanced these effects.Methods:A modified reversal design compared an environmental and an environmental plus behavioral support intervention on lunchtime PA participation versus baseline levels in a suburban junior high school in the western United States (N = 1452). PA and related contextual data were collected using systematic observation.Results:Significantly more girls and boys were observed in PA during the interventions compared with baseline phases (F2,1173 = 13.52, P < .0001, η2 = .023; F2,1173 = 20.14, P < .0001, η2 = .033, for girls and boys, respectively). There were no significant differences between the environmental phase and the environment plus behavioral support phase.Conclusion:Providing access and opportunity significantly increased the number of girls and boys observed in PA during a lunchtime program, with no additive effects of behavioral support. Further research into providing the individual-level contingencies at an institutional level is needed.

A mathematics team at DeWitt Junior High School, Ithaca, New York, recognized that although the previously developed seventh-grade curriculum was satisfactory, the individual needs of the students were not fully met by classroom presentation. This team used the existing curriculum to devise an individualized program that would (1) encourage individual progress, (2) avoid excessive imposition of hardware on the learning process, and (3) maintain and encourage teacher-pupil interaction.
