Interview with Coach Ellis of Mount Baker High School
For this assignment I interviewed my old basketball coach at Mount Baker HS. She is still the varsity girls coach there, and is doing a wonderful job. I asked her a series of questions and she answered them wondergfully.
Q 1: What made you want to be a basketball coach, let alone a coach? Did you have anyone who inspired you, or someone who guided you?
A 1: I wanted to be a basketball coach because I LOVE the sport. I have played since I can remember and I enjoy being around others with the same passion I have for the sport. I started coaching because an AAU program was getting started in Ferndale and I volunteered to help get it started. Read more »

What is UniCommons.com?
Pronounced YOU-nee-commons, the name conveys a sense of togetherness in learning. "Uni" is a recognized contraction of "university" and also means "one" in the formation of compound words ("Uni," n.d.). This project focuses on a return to the original meaning of university as "a community of masters and scholars" ("University," n.d., para. 1). "Commons" represents shared ground or a shared road ("Concurrency," 2008) whereby learners at UniCommons.com may share a common platform to develop and present their scholarship.

Performance Evaluation
The performance evaluation is for a head coach for any type of sports at the high school level. The evaluation is a formal structured system which measures the coach on a rating scale basis. This particular evaluation rates the coach on excellent, good, average, below average and poor. Although there are numbers listed under each category, this evaluation does affiliate a total score with the success of the coach being evaluated. The number is a way for the evaluator to indicate which rating scale they fall under. Read more »

Benefits From a Vegetarian Diet
There has been much controversy over vegetarian diets since they became popular. People start thinking one thing about the diet and soon the belief spreads like the flu. There are many truths and myths out there about vegetarian diets. This is due to people not being properly informed on vegetarian diets. They just believe whatever they hear about the diet and form their opinion based solely on that, regardless of facts. Although some of the rumors are accurate, people need to be better informed on the subject. The rumor I found interesting is that people believes eating a vegetarian diet makes you more healthy.

Effects of Cardiovascular Exercise on Clinical Disorders
I've had sleep disorders, often referred to as low grade insomnia, my entire life. Even as a child. While I have always been into biking, I used it in more of a moderate exercise way than actual continues vigorous exercise. For this class I have been vigorously working out more and more, and have noticed some major changes in my sleep patterns. At first, I would sleep on nights that I had gone to the gym earlier that day. Now I am actually sleeping every night without any sleep aids- herbal, natural or pharmaceutical. Read more »

Rejuvenating Your Majors' Club
Project Purpose: Re-form the physical activity and health majors' club at Eastern Oregon University. The club should include both on-campus and online students, since there are a substantial number of majors in both venues.

Website for Eastern Oregon Volleyball Club~ Noelle Carstens & Melinda Becker
Noelle and I wanted to shared with you a webiste which was created this year for the Eastern Oregon Volleyball Club. Noelle and I are both coaching for the club teams. The club director, Emily, Noelle and I decided it would be much easier to communicate with players and parents through a website and our own email. To create the website, the club director , Emily, worked with a local FBLA chapter at the school she teaches at to help us desigin the site. The FBLA chapter has created several websites so they were a very valuable resource. All three of us gave input and the FBLA chapter helped us generate the website. Of course, Noelle and I are not taking full credit for the site simply because it was a group effort. It is also still a work i Read more »
