Swimming In New Waters: Profiling K-12 Aquatic Physical Activity In Florida As A Viable Lifesaving Force In Physical Education, Angela Beale, Susan Lynn Nov 2011

Swimming In New Waters: Profiling K-12 Aquatic Physical Activity In Florida As A Viable Lifesaving Force In Physical Education, Angela Beale, Susan Lynn

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

The purpose of this study was to conduct an online survey to answer the key question, “What is the current status of aquatic physical activity (APA) in physical education programs in Florida’s public schools?” The results showed that though APA use within physical education was minimal, physical education professionals who responded in this study used and valued the use of APA in their physical education programs. Moreover, physical education professionals find the use of APA beneficial for all students in K-12 physical education. Though the current study did not address the reasons that teachers did not have APA as a …


Effects Of Teaching Methods On Swimming Skill Acquisition In Children With Developmental Coordination Disorder, Susan Oh, Melissa Licari, Brendan Lay, Brian Blanksby Nov 2011

Effects Of Teaching Methods On Swimming Skill Acquisition In Children With Developmental Coordination Disorder, Susan Oh, Melissa Licari, Brendan Lay, Brian Blanksby

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

This study compared the delivery of “verbal and visual” with “verbal, visual and tactile” swimming instruction to small groups of DCD pupils for front crawl and backstroke performance across 10 lessons x 30 minutes/week. The interaction and main effects for group and time on front crawl performances were not significant, indicating no differences were found between the two teaching methods. Also, the front crawl performances of the DCD swimmers did not change over the intervention period. The interaction and main effect for group on backstroke performances over the 10 weekly lessons were not significant. However, a significant main effect of …


Responses Of Swimmers Caught In Rip Currents: Perspectives On Mitigating The Global Rip Current Hazard, Robert W. Brander, Anthony Bradstreet, Shauna Sherker, Jamie Macmahan Nov 2011

Responses Of Swimmers Caught In Rip Currents: Perspectives On Mitigating The Global Rip Current Hazard, Robert W. Brander, Anthony Bradstreet, Shauna Sherker, Jamie Macmahan

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

Rip currents are the primary mechanism on many of the world’s beaches associated with rescues and drownings and have long been the focus of beachgoer education and awareness strategies. Traditional approaches to mitigating the rip current hazard typically provide information on escape procedures for beachgoers caught in a rip current. Several of these approaches are now being challenged by new scientific findings leading to uncertainty and debate amongst scientists and beach safety practitioners. This paper suggests that future research efforts on mitigating the rip current hazard should focus on quantifying the physical and behavioral responses of beachgoers who have been …

Signquote: A Remote Testing Facility For Eliciting Signed Qualitative Feedback, Jerry Schnepp, Rosalee Wolfe, Brent Shiver, John Mcdonald, Jorge Toro Oct 2011

Signquote: A Remote Testing Facility For Eliciting Signed Qualitative Feedback, Jerry Schnepp, Rosalee Wolfe, Brent Shiver, John Mcdonald, Jorge Toro

Visual Communications and Technology Education Faculty Publications

Sign synthesis is still an evolving technology and improving it requires the elicitation of qualitative feedback from users. Current options for acquiring qualitative feedback are limited. Face-toface tests conducted in sign language are expensive. On the other hand, remote tests do not use the preferred language of the test participants. A new tool, SignQUOTE, (Signed Qualitative Usability Online Testing Environment) is a configurable, cross platform remote testing system based entirely on sign language. It includes an innovative method for capturing qualitative feedback in sign language via webcam. In a comparison study, participants viewed animations of American Sign Language and gave …

Noxious Stimuli Sensitivity In Regular Spicy Food Users And Non-Users: Comparison Of Visual Analog And General Labeled Magnitude Scaling, Mary-Jon Ludy, Richard D. Mattes Sep 2011

Noxious Stimuli Sensitivity In Regular Spicy Food Users And Non-Users: Comparison Of Visual Analog And General Labeled Magnitude Scaling, Mary-Jon Ludy, Richard D. Mattes

Public and Allied Health Faculty Publications

The visual analog scale (VAS) and the general labeled magnitude scale (gLMS) are common response formats for assessing chemosensory sensation. The gLMS is recommended when comparing sensations between individuals whose perceptual experiences vary in a manner that may not be accurately captured on the VAS. This may occur when one group has a wider range of perceived intensity (e.g., bitterness in 6-n-propylthiouracil (PROP) tasters and non-tasters). The purpose of this study was to compare responses generated by the VAS and the gLMS following exposure to chemical, thermal, tactile, and auditory stimuli at intensity levels encountered in daily activities. Subjects were …

World Art On Swimming, Stathis Avramidis Aug 2011

World Art On Swimming, Stathis Avramidis

International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education

This article aims to identify swimming-related artwork from Paleolithic times up to the present day and to assess whether possible use of art could act as aid to teaching. An art search obtained 49 paintings and sculptures. Results confirmed that artists have bestowed a wealth of related artwork on the world of aquatics. Depictions of people swimming competitively or recreationally, diving, bathing, working and fighting were found in Egypt, Greece, Persia, Italy, Spain, the USA, Japan and China. Depending on the particular society, the ability to swim indicated either a high or low socio-economic status. In some depictions, knowledge of …
