Students should include specific examples from the movie and relate these examples to theoretical and/or practical material discussed in class. Students should then draw on two research articles to provide support for their observations or arguments. Finally, students should include a brief reflection of their own personal insight. For example:
For movie or book: Was the depiction of the sport/exercise psychology concept in the film or book accurate based on what you have learned in the course? Why or why not?
This section should be approximately 3 pages in length, including no more than 1 page describing the course concept being discussed. Students should use the remaining space to describe how the concept is embedded in the movie and provide research evidence to support their observations or arguments. (Section 2 of the marking key).
