Biography
Dr. Rebecca Lloyd is an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Education at the University of Ottawa. Her interdisciplinary research intertwines curriculum theory, phenomenology, pedagogy, motivational psychology, movement consciousness, and exercise physiology. Her SSHRC-funded research explores this interdisciplinary integration through the ‘function2flow’ (http://function2flow.ca/) model, a framework that facilitates curricular and pedagogical understandings of becoming physically educated in alternative and mainstream activities.
Dr. Lloyd promotes an interdisciplinary understanding of health in her teaching and service to students in the Faculty of Education through her role as co-director of the Comprehensive School Health cohort (https://uottawa-comprehensive-school-health.ca/). She also, with great passion, serves her research community. She has assumed the role of chair on more than three occasions for the Physical and Health Education (PHE) Canada conference as well as the Physical Education Teacher Education (PHETE) SIG within CSSE. Her international affiliations include the International Physical Literacy Association (IPLA) and the International Human Science Research Conference (IHSRC).
