| Abstract | The study investigated the effects of incorporating movement breaks into online learning on student engagement. The purpose was to examine how these breaks influenced students' behavioral, emotional, and cognitive engagement during online classes. An eight-week intervention was conducted, during which selected classes implemented scheduled movement breaks. Data were collected through student responses, teacher observations, and video recordings. The results indicated positive effects of the movement breaks on student engagement in terms of behavioral, emotional, and cognitive aspects. Students actively participated in the breaks, expressed positive emotions, and demonstrated improved cognitive processing. The findings highlight the importance of considering the mind-body link and suggest incorporating movement breaks to enhance student engagement and well-being in online and in-person classes. Practical implications include tailoring activities to students' interests and preferences, creating a more inclusive learning environment, and conducting further research on personalized approaches. The study provides valuable insights into the positive impact of movement breaks on student engagement during online learning, offering practical implications for educators. |
