Abstract: This study examined teacher implementation practices to meet a state mandate requiring 135 minutes of student physical activity (PA) weekly. Teachers were required to implement a video-based movement integration (MI) program. Using an embedded mixed-methods design, provider characteristics of 42 teachers and the organizational capacity of six schools were developed from interviews, surveys, observations, and artifacts. Data analysis revealed three teacher profiles: (a) Dynamic Experientialists , (b) Coachable Constructivists , and (c) Cautious Behaviorists . There were also three school profiles: (a) Whole Child Approach , (b) Grade Level Champions , and (c) Back to Basics . Findings suggest that school, teacher, and student factors affect MI implementation.
