Final presentation

Hi guys, i'm not sure who has the final presentation and is sending it to Chris, but I found that in a couple of my slides there is some info missing because of the black banner at the top. Could the person who is sending the final presentation just look at it for me and change the bits that are hidden to white please? Thank you :)

Tomorrows meet up

Just a quick post are we all still ok for meeting up at 11 tomorrow?

Rough Presentation

More things to be added but getting down the structure


Olympians George Eastman

Thursday 24th

Hey Guys, as you will know, if you've check myUCA recently, that Thurday's lecture is cancelled. So I was thinking moving our meeting to the morning say about 10 ish? Let me know what you think...

George Eastman Research

Hey 'Olympians', after having a quick look around, I found this article on George Eastman, we can get a good background on the guy from this article.

The next presentation....

Hi guys,
So, as we know we've got to do another presentation in about 3 weeks on a topic of our choice. Now I think we need to decide on what our subject will be asap and then stick to it so we don't waste too much time on that.

So I was thinking maybe art movement or specific artist.... or maybe something like the motor engine as that has revolutionised everything and can easily be brought forward and back in time...

Just some thoughts... let me know, I'm sure you'll all come up with something much better than me :)

Presentation

The Olympic Games in Film

To blog your presentation step by step

Scribd can be found here:

http://www.scribd.com/

Basically signing up which is free. In the top section of the page between the Scribd logo and the search bar is an upload button. Click this to be sent to an upload page and click the upload button again to choose your powerpoint presentation from your folders. After uploading your presentation to scribd you will need to get the embed code to put into the blog. To do this view your presentation and then click the embed button on the bottom taskbar

 

Then with the little options that come up: facebook, twitter etc. choose the embed option and you will come across this screen - 

Now create a new post for the blog and then paste in the embed code. It should produce the code to make the presentation appear on the page

Click preview to make sure that this works and then publish post.

Hopefully you can understand this fine if not comment or post up and hopefully I can help. Sorry for the writing on the images being scrappy, touchpads are hard to paint with.

Helpful article for me and Nuria

The commercialization of the Olympics: Cities, corporations and the Olympic commodity

Very helpful article which I feel I can definitely use in the summarising of the gold medals basically the Olympics becoming less and less about the celebration of great athletes and their gold medal achievements but focusing on commercialisation.

Meeting Times

I think we are all aware that the work is piling up and we've got less time than ever. But we still need to make time for this research. I met up with Tracy Ashmore (Essay lady)  this morning, and if anyone has seen her before, you would understand her brutal but understandable timetable making system. In my new timetable Tracy has given me the following times for me to get together with you lot to sort this presentation out.

Thursday 24th 12-2
Monday 28th 10-12

If anyone has any problems with these times please let me know.

On a Urgent note we really need to get a crack on with this and have it done!!

Tomorrows meeting

11-2 Hopefully everyone still has this time free tomorrow so I will see you in the library then we can chat about our findings. Thanks

A helpful article

Hi Guys I've just come across this article titled 'Marxist Theories of Sport: Nation, Commerce and Pleasure'. I think it might be quite helpful to both Max and Nuria....

Marxist Theories of Sport: Nation, Commerce and Pleasure

A talk with Tutor Chris

After Group D's seminar today Chris and I had a chat with Tutor Chris in response to the four sections which we will be looking individually at for our presentation. We explained to him about the troubled timetable as both Rhyan and Nuria struggle to be free due to workshops which can change frequently and he agreed that an individual effort which then turned into a collaborative effort would work well. This would also make sure that everyone had their say in the presentation. I spoke to Chris in our group afterwards and I feel that tomorrows meeting would not be efficient or successful so instead of a meeting tomorrow I suggest we wait until Monday between 11 and 2 so we have a weekend to come up with lots of research to talk about with each and discuss any other places which an individual could search into for their chosen topic within the Olympic Games. Hopefully Nuria and Rhyan can see this message and apologies to you all for this late decision. I just feel that it would be practical for everyone as I know of the timetable issues we all share.
Thanks
