Check out this article. It seems that West Virginia officials are adding DDR to the physical education program to help combat youth obesity. Setups will be purchased for each of the 700+ public schools and made available to students.

Unfortunately, they will be using the XBox version, instead of the PS2. It also makes me wonder what kind of "rugged dance pad" they're using. At the quoted price, they'd be hard pressed to get Cobalt Fluxes...

Yay! Now instead of obese kids, West Virginia will have sweaty obese kids in their public schools! ;)

well idk much about the technical stuff ^_^' ... but DDR as part of PE curriculums has been around for at least a couple of years... i remember seeing segments about it on the news back when i was in high school. i think it's a really good/fun way to get kids active.

I saw something about it in some California schools awhile back, but this is the first time I've heard of an entire state adopting it. It's pretty crazy, I think.
