Sports Marketing

AIM: Read and discuss chapter 4 topics. Students copy and define new promotional terms.

DO NOW: Students are to finish reading and write a summary of stadium article distributed on Friday. Students were required to write a one-two paragraph summary of the article, and only one student attempted it. That is not acceptable. You must read the article, underline key points and write a one to two paragraph summary and be prepared to discuss it.

The Stadium Proposal Project was due on Friday. It is now late. Each day late it loses ten points on the first day, and then that doubles to 20 points on the second day late and remains at 20 points off the grade it can receive each additional day. You cannot pass the class without the group stadium proposal project and it is the bulk of your graded work for this marking period. Conduct and participation and any classwork and homework also counts, but that is the major project. Where is it? Please don't fail due to poor planning.

LP: On Friday students were required to read chapter 4 and copy all highlighted terms and define them for a future review and test. Make sure you have completed this assignment.

Homework: Look up: "Sebastian Telfair" using google and prepare a one page bio about him. Use your own words and print it out and bring it to class tomorrow.

Please note: We will be viewing a film about his rise and the endorsements he received.

Other concerns:
Please make sure that you do not enter the classroom prior to the teacher's arrival. Students are never permitted to be alone in a classroom. I never open the door, allowing students in, and then leave the room. If someone does this, please let me know who opened the door and tell that person, you are not permitted in the room, until the teacher arrives. I have not ever left a student alone in a classroom that I opened, and no one is allowed to do so. If someone opens the door, and it isn't me, do not go inside. Wait outside the door until I arrive.
Unfortunately I must make sure the computer lab is fully shut down and cleaned up and locked up and all students have left the room without pulling the plug on their computers, prior to being able to leave the lab, which is in a cave in 410A. That is the reason I have difficulty getting to 403 on time. It is not a standard computer lab and invariably a student refuses to follow direction and will not log out when told to do so, and I cannot leave the student(s) alone in the lab and lock up.
