    Physical Activity in The Elementary Classroom

    Get PDF
    It is clear that physical activity affects the body and helps us to become healthy and physically fit, but there is an increasing amount of research being done suggesting that the benefits of physical activity stretch much farther than building and toning muscles. During physical activity, the brain is influenced in ways that have the potential to improve academic success among elementary school students. The purpose of our thesis was to analyze the research that has been done on the effects of physical activity on the brain by creating this literature review that helps determine how physical activity can be utilized in the education system. We then took that information and compared it to our theories so that we could better understand where current issues lay and how they might be addressed as we enter the teaching profession. Based on our research, we developed a pedagogical theory of best practice which we can now put to use in our future teaching careers. To conclude this thesis, we have included ways for teachers to implement our findings through activities such as brain breaks, teaching strategies and school wide fitness programs, so that our research benefits more than just our own classrooms. Our goal is to impact the lives of as many students as we can, in the area of physical education

    Human Embodiment and Christian Worship: God\u27s Revelation Through the Human Body in Scripture, Theology, and Liturgy

    Get PDF
    This research will demonstrate that bodily existence is essential to human nature and that Christian worship practices must go hand-in-hand with a sound understanding of human embodiment in order to be faithful to the essence of Christianity. The following thesis demonstrates that the biblical understanding is that humanity was created as a body enlivened by the breath of God and intended to be the sacred sanctuary where God’s presence will dwell. In the incarnation of Jesus Christ, God’s goal to make humanity the sanctuary for his presence is fulfilled. Jesus Christ is the image of God, who redeems and represents all humanity regardless of age, class, race, or gender. All humanity finds their ultimate destiny in union with Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit, by which those who believe are transformed into God’s dwelling place. The human body is where God is most directly present in creation, and thus must be accounted for in all reflections on worship and the Christian life. Ritual practices are proven to form human beliefs and behaviors in critical ways, requiring that liturgical rituals be carefully formed to faithfully shape Christians into God’s sanctuary. All ethnicities, classes, and genders are invited into the Church, and the liturgy must especially recognize the gendered experience that all people have of God, necessitating the representation of both women and men as leaders within the Church. Sacred architecture must be structured and organized to nurture and orient people towards an embodied engagement with God. If the sanctuary God is building in the Church is to be truly faithful, the essentially embodied existence of humanity must be unequivocally affirmed and guide Christian doctrinal, liturgical, and spiritual practices

    The Visegrad Group and the EU agenda on migration: A coalition of the unwilling?

    Get PDF
    More than a million refugees applied for asylum in member states of the European Union in the course of 2015. Along with the challenges of the central Mediterranean migration route, new hotspots of migratory movements emerged, such as Hungary. The EU is faced as a result with a number of challenges connected to its asylum policy, mostly because its system was not designed with the prospects of a persistent mass influx of refugees in mind. Although the recast process of the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) established the possibility of financial compensation, supportive measures and earlywarning mechanisms, no common system for a more equal distribution of refugees was accepted. Initiatives aiming to establish resettlement and relocation mechanisms based on distribution keys were not supported unanimously. Among the prominent persistent objectors to such plans are the Visegrad Four (V4) countries who express a strong interest in securitising irregular migration. This article aims to explain V4 countries’ reactions, and examines whether a fundamental reassessment of the CEAS is really needed or possible in the near future
