Assessment 1, Part A - Act as a reviewer (20%)
Books, films and documentaries and even Youtube videos contribute enormously to our culture, education and lifestyle in today’s society. In this assessment piece students are to act as a film or book reviewer and write an article about one sport or outdoor recreation/adventure activity that utilises one of the mediums (book, film, documentary).
Students should use the advice posted under Assessments folder of Blackboard/MUSO to help formulate their review. But remember, this is an academic piece of work, so students should also indicate in their review how their book/film/DVD contributes to ‘our’ understanding of contemporary sporting/outdoor recreation culture.
Students should use at least 3 references from academic literature (e.g. book chapters, journal articles, peer reviewed conference proceedings; NOT Wikipedia) to further support their review. At the end of their piece they should post their references using APA format.
Students are asked to ‘submit’ their assessment as a piece of work that is posted on the unit ‘blog’ (http://introtosor2010.blogspot.com/).
As this piece contributes 20% of your total grade it should be between 600-1000 words in length.
