There is a great potential opportunity to use portable physical activity monitoring devices as data collection tools for educational purposes. Using one such device, we designed and implemented a weeklong workshop with high school students to test the utility of such technology. During that intervention, students performed data investigations of physical activity that culminated in the design and implementation of their own studies.

Second, we wanted to bet a-test the design and content of surveys dealing with the Web. Third, as mentioned, we hoped …
