| description | Physical activity is a key component in the holistic development of students, with benefits that go beyond physical health and extend into core cognitive domains essential for learning. This study examined the impact of a structured physical activity program on the academic performance of 8th-grade students at the Mocache Educational Unit in Ecuador during the 2022 academic year. A quasi-experimental design was employed, involving a control group (n = 18) and an experimental group (n = 18). The intervention lasted 16 weeks and consisted of three weekly sessions of 60 minutes each, incorporating aerobic exercises, active games, and progressively intense activities aimed at fostering student engagement and participation. Results revealed a significant increase in physical activity levels within the experimental group, with total METs rising from 737.68 to 1893.70 (p < .001), and notable improvements in vigorous activity levels (from 111.11 to 465.33 METs). Likewise, the general academic average increased from 7.10 to 7.58 points, with particularly significant gains in Mathematics (7.14 to 7.62), Language and Literature (7.19 to 7.62), and Natural Sciences (7.05 to 7.54). In contrast, the control group showed no meaningful changes in either physical activity or academic performance. These findings reinforce the evidence on the direct influence of physical activity on academic outcomes, independent of emotional mediators, and align with international research emphasizing its positive effects on attention, working memory, and student motivation. Integrating structured physical activity programs into school curricula emerges as an effective and sustainable pedagogical strategy for enhancing academic achievement and overall student well-being. |

Este estudio analizó el impacto de un programa estructurado de actividad física sobre el rendimiento académico de estudiantes de 8vo EGB de la Unidad Educativa Mocache, Ecuador, durante el año 2022. Se empleó un diseño cuasi-experimental con grupos control (n=18) y experimental (n=18), aplicando una intervención de 16 semanas, con tres sesiones semanales de 60 minutos que incluyeron ejercicios aeróbicos, juegos activos y actividades de intensidad progresiva. Los resultados mostraron un incremento significativo en los niveles de actividad física del grupo experimental, pasando de 737,68 a 1893,70 METs totales (p < .001), con mejoras notables en las actividades vigorosas (de 111,11 a 465,33 METs). Asimismo, el promedio académico general aumentó de 7,10 a 7,58 puntos, con avances particularmente significativos en Matemática (de 7,14 a 7,62), Lengua y Literatura (de 7,19 a 7,62) y Ciencias Naturales (de 7,05 a 7,54). En contraste, el grupo control no presentó variaciones relevantes ni en actividad física ni en rendimiento académico. Estos hallazgos refuerzan la evidencia sobre la influencia directa de la actividad física en el desempeño escolar, independiente de mediadores emocionales, y coinciden con investigaciones que destacan su impacto positivo en la atención, la memoria y la motivación estudiantil. Se concluye que integrar programas de ejercicio físico en el currículo escolar es una estrategia pedagógica efectiva y sostenible para mejorar el rendimiento académico y el bienestar integral del estudiantado.BABAHOYOPHD.
