Assignment:
I need help with my reflection paper assignment.
Here's the layout:
Sources: At least 5 - limited to books, academic articles, and edited collections. Books can be academic or popular. (you can choose whatever you like)
Citing: APA, in-text, author-year system.
Remember: direct quotes require a page number. Include a reference list at the end of the document. The reference list will not count toward your three pages. When in doubt, refer to a site like Purdue OWL.
Some potential ideas (but you are not limited to these alone):
- An application of deontological and teleological ethics to a personal sporting experience.
- An application of deontological and teleological ethics to a sport-related incident you witnessed as a spectator.
- How did learning the historical context of your favourite sport change/challenge your view of the activity?
- This paper will discuss how sports can be leveraged for social change going forward, particularly about our classes on sex, race, and class or the intersection of the three. It will use historical examples to support your argument.
- How has learning the history of a particular sport, event, or athlete changed your perspective on it?
The Paper should have a thesis statement explaining its primary focus. There is no set rule for how many body paragraphs it should have, but each paragraph should encompass a specific idea/topic/point. When that idea/topic/point changes, it's time to start a new paragraph. The paper will need a conclusion, including the thesis statement, your main points, and what your paper means to you in the future (this is an integral part of the reflection).
Select a topic from these books (listed below) that you found particularly interesting. Why did it resonate with you?
