Issues Facing Athletic Academic Advising

 
For the Signature Assignment, you will research issues facing academic advising and the current strategies that are being utilized by advisors in the NCAA institutions. For this final assignment, you are to:
1.Identify an Academic Athletic Advisor at a major university who is involved with an athletic department student services program you would like to interview. Contact this individual to ask specific questions about the person’s background and professional steps he or she took to attain the current position. Have that person describe his or her day-to-day routine. (Make sure you research the advisor’s background before calling to assure an effective interview with time efficiency.)
2.What athlete advisement programs or components are in place to help students with eating disorders, behavioral disorders, and learning disabilities?
3.What additional programs are provided or conducted for student athletes, especially to maintain NCAA eligibility?
4.Evaluate the program comparing this program against the material presented in this course.

Note: If for some reason you cannot make contact with an athletic academic advisor, go to the website of an athletic department, preferably a major university. Look at their academic advising program as well as their policies and procedures concerning athletic advisement. It is recommended that you select a Division I institution as these positions are funded by the NCAA and they are very comprehensive. In place of the first component, critique the website and the ease or lack thereof with which a student athlete could find resources or personnel to assist with counseling-related concerns. Then complete components two through four.

It would be helpful if you could get an electronic or hard copy policies and procedures manual and other documents concerning the structure of the program.

Please make sure that five of the eight required resources are from refereed journals, periodicals, or books concerning advising the student athlete for areas that must be developed within this program such as learning disabilities and eating disorders.

Length: 12-15 pages not including title and reference pages.
References: Minimum of 8 scholarly resources.

Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your paper should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards. Review APA Form and Style.

Ultimatum games

 
I haven’t really told my professor what is i want to do on the ultimatum game. I just told him i wanted to research on that and he told me there are dimensions to the problem such as effect of having more than 2 stages or even discounting without switching roles across rounds and can also examine the effects of altering the effective rate of varying the amount that the pie shrinks across rounds.

Swimming: Need Analysis and Periodisation

No internet sources are acceptable. ONLY peer-reviewed credible sources are needed. References can be anywhere between 15-30.
SECTION 1: Needs analysis
Detailed analysis of
– Sport, i.e., swimming
– Assessment of athlete
NOTE: analysis of movements, sports and injuries related to it

SECTION 2: Presentation, analysis and interpretation of testing results
Present performance testing data relevant to above analysed needs. With a clear justification the why the testing data should be included or excluded
Compare the needs analysed with National standards showing clearly
– How athlete stands against these needs
– Improvements required
Comparisons should be presented neatly presented with suitable tables and/or figures.
NOTE: refer to Prac class 4

SECTION 3: Annual periodised training plan
Construct an annual periodised training plan using the template provided. It should include
– Excellent identification, prioritisation and justification of training goals for annual periodised plan based on section 1 and 2
– Excellent selection, timing and justification of tests for re-assessment in order to evaluate the achievement goals.
– Excellent programming and justification of macrocycles and overall training volume in relation to the competition calendar
NOTE: section 1 and 2 leads to the justification of this whole section.

SECTION 4: One pre-season microcycle and one in-season microcycle
Prescribe
– One pre-season
– One in-season
Microcycle for 7 days using templates provided, with sufficient details.
Excellent use of acute training variables including frequency, exercise selection, number of sets and reps, tempo, intensity and rest that are appropriate for the specific case study.
Specify exactly in which week of the mesocycle each microcycle is aligned with.
NOTE: use all supporting information presented while writing the above sections.

ASSESSMENT SECTIONS
SECTION 1: Needs analysis
You are to conduct a detailed needs analysis by completing the following: (1) evaluation of the sport and (2) assessment of the athlete. Consult the relevant literature and / or other high quality sources and report your findings in paragraph form.
SECTION 2: Presentation, analysis and interpretation of testing results
Present performance testing data that are relevant and meaningful in relation to the previously conducted needs analysis (Section 1). The results then need to be analysed in comparison to the appropriate National standards in order to (1) clearly articulate how your athlete(s) compare(s) to these standards and (2) identify areas needing improvement.
SECTION 3: Annual periodised training plan
Using the template provided, you are to construct an annual periodized training plan. The outcomes from Sections 1 and 2 will lead to the identification and justification of the training goals for your annual periodised plan, the prioritisation of these goals over the season and the timing and choice of tests for re-assessment in order to evaluate the achievement of these goals.
SECTION 4: One pre-season microcycle and one in-season microcycle
Using the templates provided, you are to prescribe the specific session details (i.e. the acute training variables) of one pre-season microcycle (7 days) and one in-season microcycle (7 days) with sufficient detail to allow the athlete(s) to complete the session without further explanation (assume athletes are experienced and familiar with exercise techniques). You should note exactly which week of the mesocycle each microcycle is aligned with.
