Abstract

Academic Learning Time in Physical Education (ALT-PE) refers to the proportion of class time students spend actively engaged in motor tasks that align with instructional objectives. This study examined ALT-PE among elementary school students in Kraton District, Pasuruan Regency, and compared it across Body Mass Index (BMI) categories. A descriptive-comparative quantitative design with a cross-sectional approach was applied to 60 students in grades IV–VI, selected through stratified random sampling and divided evenly into underweight, normal, and overweight groups. BMI was assessed using a digital scale and a stadiometer, while ALT-PE was recorded through direct observation using a 6-second interval-recording technique adapted from Siedentop, Tousignant, and Parker’s coding instrument. Results showed an overall mean ALT-PE of 34.7%, significantly below the recommended 50% benchmark (p < .001; Cohen’s d = - 2.04). The normal-BMI group recorded the highest mean ALT-PE (44.2%), compared with the underweight (30.0%) and overweight (29.8%) groups. Welch’s ANOVA confirmed a significant between-group difference, F(2, 34.9) = 189.00, p < .001, and Tukey’s post hoc test showed that the normal group differed significantly from both other groups, while the underweight and overweight groups did not differ from each other. These findings suggest that nutritional status is associated with student engagement during physical education and support more inclusive, differentiated instructional approaches.

Abstract

This study examined differences in physical activity, physical fitness, and teacher character among educators in Pasuruan according to teaching level (elementary versus junior high school). Teachers serve as instructors, classroom managers, and role models; therefore, variations in student characteristics across levels may shape teachers’ activity patterns, fitness status, and professional character. A quantitative comparative survey design was employed with 150 teachers (75 elementary and 75 junior high) selected through proportionate stratified random sampling. Physical activity was assessed with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form, physical fitness with a 2,400-meter run test, and teacher character with a six-pillar character scale. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality and homogeneity tests, and the Mann–Whitney U test. Results indicated no statistically significant differences between the two groups for physical activity (p = 0.871), physical fitness (p = 0.944), or teacher character (p = 1.000). Teaching level therefore does not appear to be a primary differentiating factor. Integrated programs promoting physical activity, fitness, and character can be designed jointly for elementary and junior high school teachers. Future research should consider age, years of service, lifestyle, health status, and work environment.
