Towards a successful teledance program for youth with cerebral palsy: A mixed-method study with the instructor’s perspective
Bibliographic record
Abstract
PurposeDance is a leisure time physical activity (LTPA) known to improve motor, cognitive, and psychosocial functions in youth with cerebral palsy (CP). Online exercise or tele-programs are promising in overcoming the environmental barriers of accessibility to LTPA. To ensure successful implementation, it is necessary to identify limitations specific to dance in a pediatric population. The aim was to explore the perspectives of the main stakeholders, i.e., dance instructors and youth, to implement such a program.MethodsIn a mixed-method design, feasibility indicators were assessed by participation and retention rates, the Physical Activity Enjoyment Scale (PACES), and the Children's Effort Rating Table (CERT). Semi-structured interviews were conducted before and after the intervention with youth with CP [n = 15] and dance instructors [n = 3]. Interviews were analyzed with an inductive approach.ResultsParticipation and retention rates were 86.7% ± 10.7 and 100%, and the PACES and CERT average scores were 91% ± 11 and 3.7 ± 1.3, respectively. Four themes emerged from the interviews: 1) Technology; 2) Pedagogical Approach; 3) Participant's Environment; and 4) Social Relations.ConclusionThe teledance program is feasible and enjoyable, requiring minimal equipment and travel. However, there is a need to consider and provoke social interaction, to enhance the social and relational dimension of dance.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
