I am thinking about using a linear with nodes outline for my hypertext essay.
I am going to add a brief history of fantasy sports to my essay for people to get a better understanding of how fantasy sports originated. I have also been using 2 additional sources that were provided to me from Dr. Chandler. I believe i will need more time to write this essay.
How has digital Technology changed Fantasy Sports?
Fantasy Sports used to be done with a pencil and paper. Fantasy followers had to keep track of their teams’ stats to record the number of points they would receive for that day. As technology came into the picture, more fantasy sports games were available online for the convenience of the fantasy sports fans. People were able to watch games at ease without the need of doing any work. They just had to go online and look at the results.
Fantasy Sports leagues started almost 40 years ago. Paper- based versions of fantasy football started in the 1960’s. Rotisserie Baseball started in the 1979. Both of these sports consisted of friends that were competing for the best knowledge of sports. People that followed Rotisserie Baseball had to rush to the morning newspaper to see the box score of their games.
okay good you have the structure linear with nodes. That is a great research question and it is very interesting. Okay you some information and it answers the quest. good job don't forget to add more info., conclusion, and reference.
ReplyDeleteso, i'm a little confused with this one. i agree with tiff that your structure is really good. but is that a research question? i have this problem with mine as well, so i might not be the best to listen to. to *me*, it sounds more like a general review of fantasy sports, mainly because of the lack of technology mentioned in this 'messy draft'. i don't think we can fully give you good feedback, because we are missing the technology aspect. you said "As technology came into the picture", but we are missing the technology itself.
ReplyDeletePerfecft research question. I'm not sure I understand exactly what the fantasy football is... but I'm sure you're going to further define what it is when you get further into it. Sounds like right now you're really just focusing on the change. Just don't forget to identify what it is too. I'm doing linear w nodes too.
ReplyDeleteThis is a good start to your paper and you picked a great research question.
