Interested in the SOFIT Results?

The SOFIT tool assesses physical education practices by enabling direct observation and data collection on student activity levels and other class attributes. SOFIT observations were conducted before and after CATCH P.E. implementation training to assess the impact of teacher training on students’ moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) engagement. A total of 12 P.E. classes in 5 schools were observed at baseline and 10 P.E. classes in the same 5 schools were observed at follow-up.
