32. Collection Management FITstep Pedometer MOVband Data will be collected from each student at the very end and will be assessed based on their efforts between each station (MVPA) I would rate the ease and use of this data for in a physical education setting a 3 out of 5 due to the simplicity and data provided Data will be collected from each student at the end and will be assessed based on their number of moves I would rate the ease and use of this data for in a physical education setting a 4 out of 5 only because it is very easy for the students to wear and set-up, and it provides you with their number of moves immediately

33. Ways to Motivate FITstep Pedometer MOVband Have the students predict what their steps will be Give prizes Make number of steps a competition Set goals/Have a minimum number of steps each student must achieve Be excited about this device and be an advocate to others Set goals Have incentives for most moves/miles Promote activity for others

34. Recommendation FITstep Pedometer MOVband I would definitely recommend this for a physical education class because it’s affordable, easy to use, can be used for almost any activity, and it’s a quick way to monitor your students MVPA. I would recommend using this in a physical education setting because it doesn’t just count the steps of the students but it is able to track their every move which can provide you with more data than a regular step counter (pedometer).

41. Data Use Want to know how active the students are. What are their sleep patterns like? I will collect all of the data at the end of the week.

Once you hit so many miles you will receive a small reward.

42. Recommendation/rating Rating – 9/10 I recommend buying this app It would be nice to add your own steps Also be nice to count calories with it Overall very good app for the price-I would buy it again in a heart beat!

43. Which App do you think would be most useful to you or your students/clients? • MIO HR Watch • UP Band • FITstep Pedometer • FitBit Flex • MotionX App • MOVband • None/Can’t decide

44. Our Recommendation • Due to cost, accessibility, and simplicity, we feel that the best device that suits the physical education setting is the MOVband. • It provides the same data and a little more than the pedometer for only about 5 dollars more • Much cheaper than the other devices and will be a better fit for most schools
