About Dr Steven David Anderson
My main interests centre around physical education and the health of young people.
Teaching and supervision
I have taught several undergraduate and postgraduate modules. In particular, the majority of my teaching involves delivery of the theoretical and practical subject knowledge for aspiring PE teachers. I also head up the assessment of PE trainees off-site, performing lesson observations and working alongside the center and subject mentors, in schools/colleges.
I have one PhD completion as a Director of Studies, while also supervising master's and undergraduate projects.

Research
I have an invested interest in the health of young people, particularly in schools. My research interests focus mainly on motivation for a range of health behaviours specifically relating to physical education and children’s exercise and health. My current research interests contribute to promotion and support for adoption and maintenance of a range of health related physical activities in schools.
