found out that player’s social life is affected by sports. My driving question was that if team sports had a negative and positive effect on a player’s social life. It changed so many times because our gate icon did not fit our topic. We are doing the survey out of the student lead research because there is so many opportunities to get information. The difficult process has been finding the time to work on the gate symposium project together. The easy part is that there is more communication between us. We need to make sure that the survey gets to the right people because those people need to have played sports before. The collaboration is going great. They are telling me everything they did in their period and I ask them what to do in my period.
My topic is about the corruption is soccer, yet although we have not been approved, in my article I have learned that big companies usually cheat. To get into more detail, Fifa, the main body of soccer has more corruption in it then UeFa - a smaller European body of soccer. What I learned that was new was that soccer and many other sports have had the same problem which is the corruption of officials. Our group had to change our topic because it was too basic. Our first topic was just simply Soccer. So we added more with Mrs. Park help and got the corruption in soccer. Things like this is when they bribe the officials to favor another team over others, or when they make unfair plays on one and since they favor that team, do not call them out on it. We really did not make a driving question in the beginning, but what my group what thinking of was, How does this fraud effect games and people’s emotion? Our collaboration on the project has been decent. We try to communicate what to do and when to do. It has not been the best since I am a period apart and cannot be there with them when we get out topic approve. We usually get in contact through snap chat, and what has not been working out is a good time to meet for a mentor ship, because we know we need the help to find a better topic. I would still like to tweak my topic because I do believe it is mediocre and we can do much better.
