The online EdD in kinesiology at UNCG evolved from the face-to-face EdD, which was designed as an interdisciplinary doctoral degree tailored to working professionals in kinesiology. The new online EdD, which is the only online doctoral program in kinesiology, retains that broad, interdisciplinary curriculum and focuses on developing practicing scholars in kinesiology teaching, leadership, and advocacy. The fully-online EdD program faces many challenges, including technology issues, faculty buy-in, retention, and dissertation completion. To meet those challenges, the EdD curriculum is structured in a four-year cohort model, emphasizing collaboration and connections from the initial campus orientation session through the dissertation defense.

-of-fit statistics for alternative APC models of walking trends among older adults by regional units. A positive change in the deviance (Δ deviance) compared with the adjacent row above indicates a significant improvement of model fit. For example, the age-cohort model is superior to the age-drift model as there

the indices of match-running metrics in the U14s and U15/16s cohorts, model 3 provided the best fit. That is, model 4, which allowed the slopes to vary randomly for position and spine/lateral, did not result in improvements in model fit.
