Project+3

Project 3 will be looking at common sports injuries. You will be working on your own for this one. Pick a topic from the list below. Email me your choice, first come first served, as always. You will find out all you can about your topic and report out to the class April 23 and 24. Presentations may be in any form you would like. I am interested in symptoms of the injury, treatment, rehab, prevention and any long term issues that may effect the injured person. I would like you to go into great detail with these presentations. Different degrees of certain injurys should be addressed: i.e. Is it a full tear, partial tear? For a progressive type injury, is it in advanced stage, beginning stage? .... An exam will follow.
