The overarching purpose of this dissertation was to develop an e-Learning course in physical activity and sedentary behaviour and test its short-term efficacy and implementation among pre- and in-service early childhood educators (ECEs). The Delphi approach was adopted for Study 1, wherein a panel of international experts in physical activity and sedentary behaviour suggested topics for the course and, together with a panel of ECE experts, rated their importance. Study 2 employed a pre-post design to explore the changes in pre- and in-service ECEs’ physical activity and sedentary behaviour-related knowledge, self-efficacy, behavioural intention, and perceived behavioural control following course completion. Study 3 quantitatively and qualitatively examined the pilot implementation of the course and gathered participants’ perspectives.In Study 1, 19 unique content areas were recommended for inclusion in the eLearning course by 26 physical activity and sedentary behaviour experts. After pooling importance ratings with the ECE expert panel (n = 35), Outdoor Play was considered the top-rated area, while Monitor Physical Activity and Sedentary Time in Your Classroom had the lowest combined rating. Overall, inter-panel agreement of content area importance rankings was moderate-to-strong (rs = .60; 95% CI: 0.20 to 0.83).Results from Study 2 demonstrated that the e-Learning course significantly increased pre-service (n = 32) and in-service (n = 121) ECEs’ physical activity and sedentary behaviour-related knowledge (p < .05) and barrier self-efficacy (p < .025), as well as in-service ECEs’ task self-efficacy (p < .025). In-service ECEs also exhibited significant improvements in their behavioural intention (p < .007) and perceived behavioural control (p < .007), while only certain behaviours showed significant change among pre-service ECEs.Findings from Study 3 indicated that pre- and in-service ECEs demonstrated moderate-to-high fidelity to the e-Learning course intervention (67.6% and 62.8% completion, respectively), and communicated that they enjoyed the course. Despite reporting some challenges (e.g., technology issues, lengthy modules), participants were very pleased with the content, useability, and compatibility of the e-Learning course. In conclusion, the successful pilot implementation of the expert-developed e-Learning course provides evidence of scalability to wider populations.
