Registration Instructions

General Registration Information:

  • Step By Step is open to all UA students, faculty, staff and Student Recreation & Wellness Center members.
  • To participate, each team member must join the Step by Step 2009 America on the Move group. Instructions for registration are below. The website can record daily steps from a pedometer or physical activity minutes, which it will convert to steps.

America on the Move Registration Instructions

  1. Go to www.americaonthemove.org*
  2. Click “Join the Movement” tab on AOM’s website to register.
  3. Select “I am an individual…” when asked “What best describes you?” Follow the instructions on the screen to complete your registration
  4. To join our group: use AOM’s search function in the white toolbar at the top of every page.
    1. Type in “Step by Step 2009”
    2. Once you find the Step by Step 2009 group, click the group name to be taken to the group’s page.
    3. Click “join” on the right hand corner.
  5. Once complete, explore the site for useful tools. I recommend the following: choose an interactive trail under the “progress tab”, use the Challenge Buddies option to connect with your teammates, and view success stories. 
  6. Begin recording your activity daily.
  7. If you have any trouble, please try the “help” button on America on the Move’s website at the lower right corner of the page or e-mail Carly at fitnessga@uakron.edu.

 

*NOTE: If Step by Step participants do not have daily or almost daily access to a computer to log activity, contact Carly (fitnessga@uakron.edu or x8373) for paper versions of physical activity tracking logs.
