News: foundation started to promote exergaming and deskercise

We have been lucky enough to secure sponsors for our blog from the Active Gaming and Working Foundation. This will enable us keep giving free and impartial advice for physical education professionals in the use of exergaming for health and fitness.

The Active Gaming and Working Foundation seeks to reduce sedentary screen time including, but not limited to, video game play, computer game play, television watching and use of desktop and laptop computing for online internet and general offline office working. The AGWF objective is to add physical activity to existing inactive screen time to promote health, fitness and weight control to individuals, places of education and work. The AGWF seeks to fund, implement and facilitate the addition of fitness technology to existing screen based pursuits.
