Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Acceptability of active learning among teachers as assessed by the Acceptability of Implementation Measure (AIM)	6 months follow up	The Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM) is a 4-item measure that uses a 5-point Likert scale for each question. A sum score will be used, which can range from 4-20, with higher scores representing higher levels of acceptability.
Acceptability active learning among teachers as assessed by the Acceptability of Implementation Measure (AIM)	12 months follow up	The Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM) is a 4-item measure that uses a 5-point Likert scale for each question. A sum score will be used, which can range from 4-20, with higher scores representing higher levels of acceptability.
Implementation Fidelity as assessed by self-reported implementation logs to assess dose of delivery	12 months	Implementation logs will be completed weekly throughout the study and dose of delivery is the number of minutes per week of active learning used.
Student Physical Activity as indicated by number of minutes spent in moderate and vigorous physical activity as assessed by the Actigraph GT3X+ accelerometer	12 month follow up
