Finishing the work...

Hi after the meeting today being cancelled at the last minute I really need to know when we are going to have a meeting to put our presentations together and run through it, as we really don't have alot of time left!!
I also noticed that no one else has pur their presentations up like you asked so we can't tell each other how to link them all together...?
Please can we sort this all out asap?
Thanks.

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....
