Final+Assignment

Background What is your rationale for working on this project? Make a connection to your initial research. Outline driving question you are seeking to answer or problem you are hoping to solve. Well, I am doing this because I truly love soccer and i wanted to do something on it. On my initial research i found alot of good research and alot of rubbish. At first i was just looking to find research on how much players have been paid for transfers and trading, but then i started to look a little deeper; I began to look for research on how FIFA has tried to regulate trade, and also how it has affected the game and what not.

Vision State how this project will make a difference to you and others when it is completed. How will this project address the driving question outlined in the background section and what will the final product look like? It will give myself and others a better understanding of the sport I love. It will also allow kids who also love soccer to do what they love to do most, which is play soccer. I'm not so sure about how I am going to make my project address my driving question just yet but I'm working on it. But when I figure it out I will incorporate it within my project somehow, and the final product will look outstanding considering I love soccer and I'm also an artist; I plan on it being a success. I am going to hold a soccer tournament possibly for middleschoolers and will sell refreshments and snacks. But if that doesnt work, I might have to change my project idea. Goals In a bulletpoint fashion, list a minimum of five goals you hope to achieve with this project. Be as specific as possible. -Complete my project -Have it be a success -Have fun -Incorporate my driving question within my project -Learn something from the experiance

Products What will you do to show that you have met your goals. The presentation will be one of the products. You must prove you have met your goals by providing at least two products. Past products include performances, finished works of art, portfolio of work, etc. Well, I will record (write down) how my project went, what i thought was a success and what was a failure. I will compare the successes with the failures and then i will be able to decide whether or not i thought it was a successful project. In my project i will include some of my research (of course) and i will also include my project within it, as well as my experiances. Task Analysis What materials, resources and additional infromation will you need to complete your project successfully? Think through the specifics of who, what, where, when and how. You should have already addressed why in the background and vision sections. you need to include a timeline of what needs to be accomplished by when. You must also address any additional research or information that will be necessary to complete the project. The task analysis should be as detailed as possible. I will need soccer balls, nets, assistants, snacks, refreshments, advertisement, and a place to hold this tournament. I will also need to know how to run the tournament and also a prize possibly for the winner. I will need to talk to mr.kel and ask if i can use the gym to hold the tournament, if not then i will do something else besides a tournament but i'm not sure what just yet. If i get permission i will need advertisement for the tournament, i will also need people to help of course. I will need to set certain rules, also i will need a schedule.

Mentor and Topic Expert Analysis Provide your mentor's and topic expert's name, position or title and a rationale for why you selected each of your mentor and topic expert. What have you learned from both of people and how will they help or have they helped you? Include how often do you plan on talking with them, how will you communicate and how will you keep them involved and excited about your work? My mentor is mrs.K, and i havent got a topic expert. for my topic expert im debating whether to choose mr.medar (my high school soccer coach) or lekan king (high school student) i know this sounds ridiculous, but the only reason i would even think about choosing lekan is because he studies soccer like it's a subject.....he knows alot about soccer. I chose mrs.K because she is always there to help, and she is also willing to help. Well i learned from mrs.K that i cant give up and that everything can be fixed. i plan on meeting with both people at least once a week, but as of now that hasnt beent the case. I will try to keep things interesting for them by asking them their opinion and get them hands on the project.

Conclusion Reflect on the personal importance of this project and the skills necessary to complete it. What strengths are you building on and what weaknesses will need to be addressed to be successful? time management is a worthy skill to work on, but this skill is not the only aspect needed to complete this project. your ability to analyze your own motivations, strengths and weaknessed is crucial as you move beyond high school. I think this will make me more independent and also i will need better time management skills and most of all i need to work hard and consistantly. I think those are the skills that i am building on in this project, and i just addressed my weaknesses. I really just need to take it to the next level, i have to reach a new high in acedemic achievement.
