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.

COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS

Legendary Sports Managers - Nominate Your Favorite!

Collaboration created 07/14/2010 by Nicholas Witmer, revised Jul 21 2010 - 2:26pm by Eric K Johnson, state=Help Needed

With the passing of George Steinbrenner, I decided to start a collaborative project that compiled some of the greatest team owners/managers in sports. Nominate the person who you believe had an influential effect on a team or sport and explain their major contribution to sports management. It can be any manager/owner in any sport.

1) Owner/manager: George Steinbrenner (July 4, 1930 – July 13, 2010)

Sport Psychology Movies List Group Project

Collaboration created 06/29/2010 by Brady Hazen, revised Jun 29 2010 - 2:42am by Dana Brown, state=Completed

I’m sure you’ve all noticed that the link to the sport psychology movies in the “Watching a Sport Psychology Movie” assignment in the Apply section for this class doesn’t work. Prof. Sather says he is aware of it and has yet to find a useful list elsewhere on the web. I thought it’d be a worthwhile activity for us to work on a group project creating a sport psychology movie list. If we all contribute a couple of movies then we should have something useful for our class to use for the “Watching a Sport Psychology Movie” assignment and for future classes if Prof. Sather decides to use it.

Revised Basketball Lesson Plan

by HasaniBelt, a project created Nov 22 2010 - 8:01pm, updated Nov 22 2010 - 8:20pm

This is a shortened version of my previous basketball lesson plan

3 Day Basketball plan

Duration 1:30-2:00hr

Rules: No jewelry and rubber bands. No sagging, no boots sandles or casual shoes. Cross Trainers and Basketball shoes only. Arm bands and things of that nature are permitted as long as it is not a distraction. Glasses are okay, but not recommended.

Fundamentals will be the biggest part of the first week.

The rules of the sport to be covered in week one will have to do with dribbling. After roll call, at the beginning of instruction I will demonstrate double dribbling carrying and traveling violations. These are the only necessary rules to include thus far as I move into the session.
