In order to quantify that physical activity, the use of accelerometers has become important, due to several advantages related to other methods. By this manner, the purpose of this review has been focused on identify physical activity levels among scholars and analyze physical activity guidelines proposed. It was conducted a review of the literature related to accelerometers and scholar-aged subjects at PubMed from January 2004 to May 2013, selecting 98 papers, from those 19 show percentage of physical activity levels.
