  Fran Cleland, president of the National Association for Sport & Physical Education (NASPE) and a kinesiology professor at West Chester University in Pennsylvania, said web sites such as Livestrong.com could become supplements for everyday health and science lessons,but teachers and parents should not expect children to seek out health-related information on their own, she added.
  
  "Sometimes internet information needs someone to take it to the next step," Cleland said."Adults can do that with much more facility and ease than young adults and children."
  
  Cleland said computer-based lessons on how to trim fat and calories from meals and which exercises would be most effective for K-12 students have become popular in school districts nationwide, but a hands-on approach will reinforce such health advice.Cleland said NASPE recently applied for a grant that would allow the organization to host lessons for day-care workers on how they can incorporate physical activity into their daily classroom routines.
  
  "Interaction between people is the best bet," she said.

  "It's really not all that complicated," said Fran Cleland, a West Chester University professor who heads the nonprofit National Association of Sports and Physical Education.
  
  Cleland attributed the rising rate of childhood obesity to America's fast-food and frozen dinner culture as well as a lack of physical activity among children."It's the quality and the quantity of food," she said.
