20% Project Post 5

I worked on my PowerPoint this week. I feel that I gathered enough information in the previous weeks to be able to clearly define what a sports psychologist is to the class. I feel that after my presentation, everyone will know what a sports psychologist is and how he or she can help impact the lives of athletes. I worked out the basic layout of my presentation. The first thing I am going to do is introduce my topic and give a brief description of what a sports psychologist is. After a brief description, I plan on going into detail about the different types of sports psychologists. At this point I will clearly describe what each does, and what it takes to become one. The next thing I plan on doing is telling the class which career path interests me the most. I will give different examples or scenarios in which a sports psychologist is needed or could potentially help an athlete or team that is struggling.

School is another important factor to this career. I will then talk about which schools offer graduate programs in sports psychology and explain why it is better to actually be on campus instead of an online program. The last part of the presentation will be me telling why I think this will be a great career choice for me. I will also talk about the different career choices that comes along with being a sports psychologist.
