While I haven’t investigated it yet, I bet that remote learning is going to factor into this conversation somehow.

About this webinar
|
| Good physical health can support children and adolescents to learn effectively in the classroom and participate in their communities and wider society. Unfortunately, many behaviours linked to poor physical health outcomes among children and young people have increased since the turn of the century – children tend to do less physical activity, there are increased rates of obesity, and a general decrease in sleep quantity and quality. On the other hand, children are consuming more fruits and vegetables than in the past, accidental child mortality rates are down, and there has been a reduction in smoking tobacco and alcohol use.
These data beg a number of questions: What do such trends mean for education and later life outcomes? How can we support children in developing health-promoting behaviours? And what is the role of education systems in all of this? Join us for our ninth Ask an Expert webinar where we will discuss these issues and more with a panel of experts.
Speakers include:
- Dr Jon Quach, Senior Research Fellow, Murdoch Children’s Research Institute, Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne, Australia
- Dr Salomé Auber, Research Fellow, Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance
- Dr Ruth Aston, Lecturer, Melbourne Graduate School of Education, University of Melbourne, Australia
Moderated by Francesca Gottschalk and Jordan Hill, Analyst, OECD Centre for Educational Research and Innovation
