slideshow

for my slideshow i think im gonna go through some of the most prminent athletes in sports that were caught taking steroids.

podcast

For my podcast I’m thinking I’ll do an interview. I have a friend who has agreed to come and talk about his own steroid use as long as he can remain unanimous. Also I’m thinking I’d like to talk to a doctor and get there take on steroid use, and the effects they’ve seen it have on the human body. I think the interview with a friend will be very useful in helping my audiences see how much steroids have hurt and have drastically affected his home life and life in general. My audience in this podcast will obviously be anyone who’s interested in looking at my web text. Also a lot of people will become more interested I think if they can hear the interview and how much it can affect one person. The purpose I have in doing this podcast is to give the viewers of my web text another perspective or way of learning about my topic. Also it will keep my viewers attention much easier, because I know when there’s other stuff to click on a web page it will keep my attention longer and make me more interested. The main topic of this podcast is an interview with a previous steroid user to show and prove my point that steroids and sports are a bad mix and should be banned .

webzines

We have alot of problematic issues for the webzine so maybe a topic like that . Also we have alot of illnesses or health issues so that would be good to. I don't know what kind of title we should have yet, but it has to be something that's going to grab the attention of people who will come across it to keep reading it.

conference

Some preconference issues i have is I'm not quite sure how to arrange everything in my text i have a bunch of information, but not sure i want the flow to go. I want to keep everything together and it to make sense.

summary

Taber, A. (1999). ‘Roid rage. Salon.com: Health & Body http://www.salon.com/health/feature/1999/11/18/steroids
This article is a vague reference to everything around my topic. Some of the small effects, and a little history of everything surrounding steroids.


Kuipers, H. (1998). Anabolic steroids: side effects. In: Encyclopedia of Sports Medicine and Science, T.D.Fahey (Editor). Internet Society for Sport Science: http://sportsci.org. 7 March 1998.

The article goes into depth very well about the effects of steroids.

200 word Topic

The topic I am doing for my web texts is steroid use in sports. I am interested in this because in the world right now their is so much contraversey surrounding this topic. In baseball there are super star players who are being blamed or have admitted to steroid use. These players names have been soiled and aren't going to be put into the hall of fame. I understand that their are players who made it the hard way with hard work, but is the fact that these players did steroids enough to ban them from glory? I want to find out if steroids are really that bad for you. I know yes the people that go crazy with them it will harm them for sure, but in moderation can steroids help an athlete and possibly make the sport more exciting? I think my audience will be very interested in the topic. Anyone who watches pretty much any sport this subject has came up. Alot of men and young people would be the main audience. They would be especially interested in this because alot of guys watch sports. Not only do they watch them but them participate in them. They possibly could of came across this issue themselves in their life time faced with a decision. It would appeal to young people easily because of the sports aspect and the face that its something dangerous.

first post

My first post i posted on the facebook group site but i will copy paste it over here: The topic i am considering right now is something to do with sports. I'd like to do something possibly searching into something with the illegal substance issue that has been rising in the athlete world these days . Or maybe drugs in general in sports.

topic

Im really liken the topic of steroid use in sports. I know it is a huge controversial issue in the sports world these days. Alot of athletes have been caught for doing this. Three questions I could ask is what are Professional sports doing to stop the use of steroids? How widespread are the use of steroids? What affect on these atheletes bodies will steroids have?
