Background On Development Of Proposal

Grant proposal A was about implementing an expansion to ABC’s Alternative Breaks program to send groups of students to various communities around the country. Overall, I felt this grant was well written. This grant proposal is straight to the point, but gives enough information within most areas where clarification in not necessary. This grant proposal falls under the community service, and civic engagement categories. Although this grant proposal is for an expansion of preexisting program, I can see why they want to expand the program. The program is helps bring awareness to social problems, promotes physical activity, and helps entice people to engage in their communities. I feel that this expansion program would benefit communities,

Thesis- I want you to better understand concussions, why they’re a problem in the NFL and what measures are being taken to prevent them.

In my speech I am going to start off by letting my audience know some facts about ACL tears. My speech is going to be all about the Anterior Cruciate Ligament and how it tears. I feel that I am certified to speak about this topic because I have torn my ACL before and I know just about everything there is to know about the whole process. I will go into detail about what the acl is, how it can be torn, and the process to go through after it has been torn.

Suddenly I was in my school’s health center, surrounded by football players, each more muscular and coordinated than I, and each with a much more plausible reason for their injury. The observation left me smiling.

“The developed world deprives children of a basic and inalienable right: unstructured outdoor play. Children today have substantially less access to nature, less free range, and less time for independent play than previous generations had.” This quote is from the research based paper titled, “Where the Wild Things Should Be: Healing Nature Deficit Disorder through the Schoolyard." This article touches many aspects of how children now a days need more exposure to nature like it was on the older days. Currently, there are many playgrounds around the United States and even more the world. This article is trying to bring awareness to the problem of if playgrounds do not have enough nature or is too safe then it is

For this research synthesis I choose to write about concussions in football, specifically in youth football. I chose to focus more on youth football because concussions are such a big problem within the football world, so instead of focusing on them at a professional level it should be looked into at the entry level. If things can be done in youth football to prevent or lower the risk of concussions, then those steps should be taken. The main thing I wish to focus on is if tackling in youth football should be allowed. I came to choose this topic because I was deciding between whether or not football players should have to go to college before the NFL or concussions in football, but I chose concussions in football. Concussions in football was the topic I ended up choosing because I felt there would be more information about this topic. Also, I chose a topic dealing with sports because I grew up playing them, so I have always like them and I am a sport administration major, so I picked something that is talked about a lot in the sports world. This is an important issue because concussions can cause serious, lifelong medical issues, so they are something that needs to be addressed. My classmates should care because most of them have either played football or had a family member that played and they could have been effected by the negatives of concussions.

My topic choice for the final essay will be Football Safety Equipment. I decided to write about this topic because I am an athlete and I have played football since I was six years old. When I transfer to a four year college, I plan to play on the collegiate level. As I grew, my father would purchase extra protection in addition to purchasing my own specialized helmet for football. My father did this because he believed Parks and Recreation did not properly maintain their equipment. Also, over the last couple of years there has been quite a few players from little league to the professional league who have suffered concussions. As a result, some medical professionals believe these concussions are linked to CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy).

The worldview that I believe is best for my topic choice is the pragmatic worldview. I believe that is the best worldview because of the fact that the best research design for this topic is mixed methods research. And, according to John Creswell, “pragmatism is not committed to any one system of philosophy and reality”. In order to conduct the best research pertaining to concussions in the National Football

The topic that I chose to focus on in my major was the rise of concussions in youth sports. The essay that I will be analyzing is called “State Experiences Implementing Youth Sports Concussion Laws: Challenges, Success, and Lessons for Evaluating Impact” written by Kerri McGowan Lowery and Stephanie R. Morain published Fall 2014. The article is insightful and informative for a student pursuing a career in exercise science field because I learned new information that was previously unknown before such as the percentage of hospital visits by youth with these types of injuries, the people that are behind the scenes such as coaches and staff, and who is in charge of setting the rules for youth sports injuries.

Our topic was to research how many total helmets Riley uses for all sports and to find the total amount of concussions per sport.

For graduate nurses, does the use of high-fidelity simulators compared to low-fidelity simulators lead to better non-technical skills during emergency situation/code blue within ten weeks?

I selected this topic Health and Wellness, Concussion in Athletes because I am a Commissioner in Youth Sports and I educate coaches and athletes how to protect and prevention concussion in football and baseball. This topic was something that I can relate to and I believes that I could do a good research paper on this topic. After spending eight weeks researching this paper it has help me to gain more information that I can use in my next coaching section for 2017 football and baseball season.

I. Explaining the content of paper preparing reader to understand the injuries and the importance of trying to prevent these injuries in American football.

There are many dilemmas that plague sports. Some of those can range from bribing, cheating, racism, and sports safety. In the past the NBA had to deal with the betting scandal involving Tim Donaghy and baseball has had to deal with the issue of performance enhancers. The sports industry generates around half a trillion dollars a year and it has to deal with multiple dilemmas at the youth, college, and professional level. A growing issue with sports has been the number of injuries that athletes have had to deal with. Typical sports injuries range from twisting ankles, blowing out knees, and dislocating shoulders. Surgery and rehabilitation have helped athletes to recover and get them back on the playing field faster
