Action Research Project: Communication: Sports Coaches� Communicating to Athletes

Order Description This is an action research project, there is an in" rel="nofollow">information sheet on what needs to be done and the topic its on. It also in" rel="nofollow">includes feedback on the research proposal which is also attached. Any questions please ask. Action Research Project Topic: Communication: Sports Coaches’ Communicatin" rel="nofollow">ing to Athletes Word length: 2,500 words The followin" rel="nofollow">ing format is expected for the action research project: Introduction: This will at least in" rel="nofollow">include the followin" rel="nofollow">ing: • Thorough and relevant context analysis. Action research cycle(s) This will at least in" rel="nofollow">include the followin" rel="nofollow">ing: • Thorough description of how the evidence was collected for each cycle; • The reflections on that data; • A critical account of the research that is relevant to the issue/problem that is the focus of the cycle (especially in" rel="nofollow">in the Plan and Reflect part of the cycle); • The strategies for change that resulted from the reflection and the new (revised) plan of action for the next cycle in" rel="nofollow">includin" rel="nofollow">ing details of any new (or additional) data that was collected. Summary This will at least in" rel="nofollow">include the followin" rel="nofollow">ing: • What you consider that you have learned about your coachin" rel="nofollow">ing from this project; • What have been the thin" rel="nofollow">ings that might have limited or prevented you from achievin" rel="nofollow">ing the change you desired? Note: By “This will at least in" rel="nofollow">include the followin" rel="nofollow">ing” we are sayin" rel="nofollow">ing that you are at liberty to in" rel="nofollow">include other relevant thin" rel="nofollow">ings but that this is the min" rel="nofollow">inimal expectation. Also, it is expected that you will: • make regular connections with relevant empirical literature; • use headin" rel="nofollow">ings and sub-headin" rel="nofollow">ings where appropriate; • communicate with competent expression and spellin" rel="nofollow">ing; • use conventional and consistent formattin" rel="nofollow">ing (e.g. min" rel="nofollow">inimum of 1.5 spacin" rel="nofollow">ing, 10- 12pt font, normal margin" rel="nofollow">ins) and referencin" rel="nofollow">ing (e.g. APA 6th); • use graphical or other representations where applicable to aid communication. Feedback from Research Proposal (Attached as Research Proposal) My primary concern is the lack of personalisation in" rel="nofollow">in the project; i.e., it is about others and not you as a coach Contextual analysis: • All useful in" rel="nofollow">information; however, some additional in" rel="nofollow">information about your settin" rel="nofollow">ing would have been useful Issue: • What you write is relevant but more relevant was why it is an issue for you. Hence, provide data that shows this is an issue for you in" rel="nofollow">in your settin" rel="nofollow">ing. Method: • I like your topic question; however, some literature about motivation in" rel="nofollow">in the lit review would seem relevant. • The in" rel="nofollow">inclusion of feedback from a critical friend is great but also consider self-assessment as well as players' feedback... then, triangulate those three data sets. • Consider how you will make sense of the collected data.

Italicise the volume number AND for text references in" rel="nofollow">include city/country for publishin" rel="nofollow">ing house (e.g., Sage references for Silverman and Smith books; e.g., London: Sage) • in" rel="nofollow">in text citations do not use ampersand (&).
