Sociology of Sports Reflection Paper

For this assignment, you are asked to prepare a Reflection Paper. After you finish the reading assignment, reflect on the concepts of violence and gender in sports. What do you understand completely? What did not quite make sense? The purpose of this assignment is to provide you with the opportunity to reflect on the material you finished reading and to expand upon those thoughts. If you are unclear about a concept, either read it again or ask your professor.
Can you apply the concepts toward your career? If so, how? This is not a summary. A Reflection Paper is an opportunity for you to express your thoughts about the material by writing about them. A Reflection Paper cites your reactions, feelings, and analysis of an experience in a more personal way than in a formal research or analytical essay
Be sure to reflect on the following topics:
1. Connections and situational factors related to violence in sports.
2. Strategies that might be used to control on-the-field violence.
3. Why gender equity is an important issue for both women and men.
4. Strategies that might be used in achieving gender equity in sports.
How do they apply to your career? How do they apply to your life personally?
Use these guidelines as you reflect on the course material:
1. Your paper should be at least 750 words in length.
2. Include an introduction and conclusion section.
3. Format your reflection paper using APA style.
Use your own words, and include citations for other articles as needed to avoid plagiarism.
