Desplazamiento activo al centro educativoanálisis del entorno construido y propuestas de intervención

Abstract

Active commuting is one of the current methods that are working to increase physical activity in society. The practice of active travel can not only benefit people's health, but also reduce traffic and improve the time available to families. This thesis has three objectives: 1 To study the association between the mode of travel to and from school and the characteristics of the family and school environment in adolescents. 2 To study the cognitive determinants of active commuting to school. 3 To present an educational innovation project for early childhood education to improve active commuting. The results offer ample resources to promote active commuting within educational centres, as well as in areas that have been little studied, such as the infant stage. In addition, it offers interesting results in relation to the environment and mode of commuting.
