| Abstract | The purpose of this study is to compare what effect exercise has on your memory. In this study we will be testing 24 grade eight students. The subjects will be divided into groups of 12 males and 12 female grade eight students. We will be measuring how many objects the students can remember. We will have them participate in a memory test first as a pre-test. We will then divide the students into 2 groups. Half of the participants will exercise for six minutes and the other half of the group will sit for six minutes. Then all the participants will participate in a memory test again. The results of this study will help educate students, parents and teachers on how exercise can affect their memory. |
