We put this commitment to work through service in schools across the country. Every day, our AmeriCorps members help students to develop the skills and mindsets needed to thrive in school and in life, while they themselves acquire valuable professional experience that prepares them to be leaders in their careers and communities. We believe that all students can succeed. Supporting the success of our students goes far beyond just making sure they know how to add fractions or write a persuasive essay—students also need to know how to work in teams, how to problem solve and how to work toward a goal. City Year AmeriCorps members model these behaviors and mindsets for students while partnering with teachers and schools to create supportive learning environments where students feel a sense of belonging and agency as they develop the social, emotional and academic skills that will help them succeed in and out of school.

  • Sports & Esports the Competitive Dream Team
    SPORTS & ESPORTS THE COMPETITIVE DREAM TEAM JULIANA KORANTENG Editor-in-Chief/Founder MediaTainment Finance (UK) SPORTS & ESPORTS: THE COMPETITIVE DREAM TEAM 1.THE CROSSOVER: WHAT TRADITIONAL SPORTS CAN BRING TO ESPORTS Professional football, soccer, baseball and motor racing have endless decades worth of experience in professionalising, commercialising and monetising sporting activities. In fact, professional-services powerhouse KPMG estimates that the business of traditional sports, including commercial and amateur events, related media as well as education, academic, grassroots and other ancillary activities, is a US$700bn international juggernaut. Furthermore, the potential crossover with esports makes sense. A host of popular video games have traditional sports for themes. Soccer-centric games include EA’s FIFA series and Konami’s Pro Evolution Soccer. NBA 2K, a series of basketball simulation games published by a subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive, influenced the formation of the groundbreaking NBA 2K League in professional esports. EA is also behind the Madden NFL series plus the NHL, NBA, FIFA and UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) games franchises. Motor racing has influenced the narratives in Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto, Gran Turismo from Sony Interactive Entertainment, while Psyonix’s Rocket League melds soccer and motor racing. SPORTS & ESPORTS THE COMPETITIVE DREAM TEAM SPORTS & ESPORTS: THE COMPETITIVE DREAM TEAM In some ways, it isn’t too much of a stretch to see why traditional sports should appeal to the competitive streaks in gamers. Not all those games, several of which are enjoyed by solitary players, might necessarily translate well into the head-to-head combat formats associated with esports and its millions of live-venue and online spectators.

The athletes’ tweets were categorised into a primary category as well as a secondary and tertiary category, when applicable. The research questions were: 1. How do the most followed esports athletes employ Twitter in terms of the main properties in their tweets? 2. In addition to the main property, what additional features do the athletes’ tweets contain? 3. What are the differences and similarities in the emphases of the athletes’ tweets’ main properties and additional features, when examined by game of the athlete? The results showed that the category that the tweets were annotated most frequently into in the primary categorisation was INFORMATION SHARING, indicating that the athletes’ tweets’ main property was most often to share information on topics related to esports.

    Master’s thesis in Geography Geoinformatics Spatial analytics in competitive gaming and e-sports Timo Ijäs 2021 Supervisor: Petteri Muukkonen Master’s Programme in Geography Faculty of Science UNIVERSITY OF HELSINKI Faculty Department Faculty of science Department of geosciences and geography Author Ijäs, Timo Topias Title Spatial analytics in competitive gaming and e-sports Subject Geography (geoinformatics) Level Month and Year Number of Pages Master’s thesis May 2021 168 Abstract The topic of this thesis is spatial analytics in competitive gaming and e-sports. The way in which players analyze spatial aspects of gameplay has not been well documented. I study how game, genre and skill level affect the use of spatial analysis in competitive gaming. My aim is also to identify the benefits and challenges of spatial analytics, as well as the need for new spatial analytical tools. Four games of different popular competitive gaming genres were chosen for the study. An online survey was conducted which resulted in a cross-sectional dataset of 2453 responses. It was analyzed using ordinal logistic regression and histogram-based gradient boosting in a cross-validating manner. Open-field answers were summarized using state-of-the-art deep learning methods and analyzed with inductive content analysis. Additionally, experts of each game were interviewed. The results show that the use and understanding of spatial analysis is largely not game- or genre dependent. Players grow spatial skills along with their skill level and start using more complex spatial analytical methods more frequently as their skill level rises. It is exceedingly rare that expert players do not analyze spatial aspects of their gameplay.
