The first was also a football letterman, Tom Brookshier, who did NFL color commentary for several years on CBS. Another has made his niche in broadcasting, as Dave Logan is the play-by-play voice for the Denver Broncos, following up a stellar career as an NFL receiver. One of the most visible people on the national college football beat is ESPN’s Chris Fowler, a 1985 CU graduate who worked three years in CU’s sports information office. Another ’80s grad and SID office veteran,Jim Gray, is with FOX after stints with NBC, ABC and ESPN; he’s made a name for himself in breaking several national stories. Solomon Wilcots, who lettered two years at cornerback and played several seasons in the NFL, worked for CBS and ESPN and is now with the NFL Network. Kevin Corke, another CU journalism grad, started at Denver’s KUSA-TV and moved on to become an anchor at ESPN before his current gig: White House correspondent for the FOX News Channel. Joel Klatt, who set nearly four dozen records as CU’s quarterback between 2003-05 started out locally with ROOT Sports before being snagged by FOX Sports. Matt Schick, is the most recent Buff to join the ESPN family of networks, also working college football. Two other former players have a presence on the Pac-12 Networks among other assignments, Jeremy Bloom and Chad Brown, while three others are prominent on Denver radio: Mike Pritchard, Bobby Pesavento and Tyler Polumbus. Behind the scenes, Peter Lasser was a top producer for TNT’s NFL football coverage, and Jay Rothman is one of ABC’s and ESPN’s most respected producers, having worked college football and is now the producer of Monday Night Football. 354.

  • The Hunger Games: an Indictment of Reality Television
    The Hunger Games: An Indictment of Reality Television An ELA Performance Task The Hunger Games and Reality Television Introductory Classroom Activity (30 minutes) Have students sit in small groups of about 4-5 people. Each group should have someone to record their discussion and someone who will report out orally for the group. Present on a projector the video clip drawing comparisons between The Hunger Games and shows currently on Reality TV: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wdmOwt77D2g) After watching the video clip, ask each group recorder to create two columns on a piece of paper. In one column, the group will list recent or current reality television shows that have similarities to the way reality television is portrayed in The Hunger Games. In the second column, list or explain some of those similarities. To clarify this assignment, ask the following two questions: 1. What are the rules that have been set up for The Hunger Games, particularly those that are intended to appeal to the television audience? 2. Are there any shows currently or recently on television that use similar rules or elements to draw a larger audience? Allow about 5 to 10 minutes for students to work in their small groups to complete their lists. Have students report out on their group work, starting with question #1. Repeat the report out process with question #2. Discuss as a large group the following questions: 1. The narrator in the video clip suggests that entertainments like The Hunger Games “desensitize us” to violence. How true do you think this is? 2.

A season should be 8 to10 weeks in duration and consist of a practice night and a game day. The practice should be no longer than 60-75 minutes in length and game day should be no longer than 1 hour in length. Teams should consist of 8-14 players. Specific curriculums for practices are detailed later for each specific age, as well as, understanding a session plan. A couple of key points to remember and avoid at practice include: • No exercises with lines. • Warm-ups should include work with the ball. • No players standing. • Every player should have a ball, unless involved with passing exercises or games. Remember this is practice time, not story time, so don’t sit your team down for a long, spirit raising, team talk. You are stealing time when your players could be working on their new skills from previous practice or newly introduced technique. Note: Every player has a ball [2] Intramural Program By Gary Stephenson & Mike Barr Game Day • Players arrive 10 minutes before scheduled game time (20 minutes for the coach) • Practice (warm up)-10 minutes • Water break-5 minutes • First Half-20 minutes • Water break-5 minutes • Second Half-20 minutes • Players shake hands with the other team Logistics for Game Day Start with two adjacent fields with one team on each.

  • KHSAA Healthy at Sports
    2020-21 Healthy at Sports Stage 3- Performance ALL SPORTS Return to Competition: Considerations for GUIDANCE Fall Sports ALL SPORTS GUIDANCE INTRODUCTION FROM THE COMMISSIONER At the Kentucky High School Athletic Association, we are aware that we are at the confluence of dual health crises. Since the day we moved our basketball tournaments out of Rupp Arena (March 12), I and the entire staff of the Association, along with the complete support of our Board of Control, have worked to try and navigate these multiple health crises in our country. These crises include both the global pandemic related to the novel Coronavirus, COVID-19, and the mental health situations, including depression and suicide which are so prevalent in school-aged children these last few months. We have received continual feedback from our member schools, the related school districts, and our Sports Medicine Advisory Committee from the Kentucky Medical Association, and have worked continually with Governor Beshear’s and Lt. Governor Coleman’s offices, the Kentucky Department of Education, a host of “K” groups from around the Commonwealth and a host of others to guide our member schools back to healthy sports participation during the COVID-19 pandemic. We will continue to navigate these uncharted waters, ready to pivot and change course at a moment’s notice as we all work through the first truly global pandemic in more than 100 years. The KHSAA believes it is essential to the physical and mental well-being of student-athletes to return to organized physical activity and build team relationships with their peers and coaches.

Harper November 2010 © 2010 Todd L. Harper. All Rights Reserved. This dissertation titled The Art of War: Fighting Games, Performativity, and Social Game Play by TODD L. HARPER has been approved for the School of Media Arts and Studies and the Scripps College of Communication by Mia L. Consalvo Associate Professor of Media Arts and Studies Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication ii ABSTRACT HARPER, TODD L., Ph.D., November 2010, Mass Communications The Art of War: Fighting Games, Performativity, and Social Game Play (244 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Mia L. Consalvo This dissertation draws on feminist theory – specifically, performance and performativity – to explore how digital game players construct the game experience and social play. Scholarship in game studies has established the formal aspects of a game as being a combination of its rules and the fiction or narrative that contextualizes those rules. The question remains, how do the ways people play games influence what makes up a game, and how those players understand themselves as players and as social actors through the gaming experience? Taking a qualitative approach, this study explored players of fighting games: competitive games of one-on-one combat. Specifically, it combined observations at the Evolution fighting game tournament in July, 2009 and in-depth interviews with fighting game enthusiasts. In addition, three groups of college students with varying histories and experiences with games were observed playing both competitive and cooperative games together.

  • Guardian Angels of Our Better Nature: Finding Evidence of the Benefits of Design Thinking
    Paper ID #14037 Guardian Angels of Our Better Nature: Finding Evidence of the Benefits of Design Thinking Dr. Luke David Conlin, Stanford University Luke Conlin is a postdoctoral scholar in the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University. His work focuses on the learning of engineering and science in formal and informal environments. Doris B Chin Ph.D., Stanford Graduate School of Education Dr. Kristen Pilner Blair, Stanford University Dr. Maria Cutumisu, Stanford University Prof. Daniel L Schwartz, Stanford University Dr. Schwartz studies human learning, especially as it applies to matters of instruction. Page 26.828.1 Page c American Society for Engineering Education, 2015 Guardian Angels of Our Better Nature: Finding Evidence of the Benefits of Design Thinking INTRODUCTION In the field of engineering education and beyond, there is a widespread and growing belief in the importance of teaching the disciplinary practices of engineering design, i.e., “design thinking”. Many have attempted to teach design thinking in the service of learning content, especially in math and science1; others have emphasized its importance for training future designers and engineers2. Despite the energy and enthusiasm of proponents, there has been relatively little research conducted on (1) whether design thinking is teachable, i.e. whether students will apply it somewhere else besides the immediate context, and (2) whether design thinking is beneficial for learning in these new contexts. In our view, one of the most important features of design thinking is that, similar to the scientific method, it invites a focus on ways of thinking that can protect against common pitfalls when learning, solving problems, or doing creative work.

  • Cognitive Ability and the House Money Effect in Public Goods Games
    Munich Personal RePEc Archive Not All Income is the Same to Everyone: Cognitive Ability and the House Money Effect in Public Goods Games Hackinger, Julian Technical University of Munich 19 April 2016 Online at https://mpra.ub.uni-muenchen.de/70836/ MPRA Paper No. 70836, posted 20 Apr 2016 04:42 UTC Not All Income is the Same to Everyone: Cognitive Ability and the House Money Effect in Public Goods Games Julian Hackinger∗ Technical University of Munich 19th April 2016 Abstract The provision of public goods often suffers from a social dilemma generating too little contributions. Yet, it remains an open question how positive contributions materialise. Existing studies suggest that individuals’ decisions on how much to contribute depend on cognit- ive skills. Furthermore, mental accounting research indicates that the source of income matters for economic decision making. I show experi- mentally that subjects’ contributions in a one-shot linear public goods game depend on an interplay of the two factors. While a house money effect exists for subjects with low cognitive skills there is no such effect for those with high cognitive skills. My findings have important im- plications for taxation, redistribution, and voting behaviour, as well as past and future experiments.
