Bye Week & Feedback Consideration

 Hi Everyone!

This week I'm going to be taking a break from my project and focus on considering the best way to proceed with my product. My professor pointed to the website, videos, and drills for each skill being far above the workload expectations for this project, so this week I'm going to think about how I would like to scale down my product.

Because I want to pursue goalkeeper training and coaching part time alongside my teaching career, building the website was my way of starting this, so at this point I would really like to continue this portion. I'm also thinking that since I won't be adding drills for each skill at this point (would be completed post-project), I will have a lot less research on my plate and can likely dedicate that time to creating the website. The videotaping was probably the portion that was the most daunting, and although I will also want to add this in the future, taking this part out for the time being would make my project scope significantly more manageable. With that said, I would really like to do a write-up for each skill that I've selected explaining with the aids of links, pictures, and diagrams why the skill is important and a brief explanation on performing it. I think this option also allows me some flexibility because I can start with creating the website, but can reduce the number of skills on which I provide analysis if needed.

Stay tuned next week for an update on my progress and decision for my product!

Continuing my website and breaking down the skills

 Hi Everyone! I hope you enjoyed visiting my site and having a look at the format. This week I focused on creating the pages for each skill section, linking the specific skills to these pages, and starting with breaking down one of the skills. Here's a look at the front page of the distribution and foot skills section. I created a page with a brief heading explaining the importance of this category of skills. The skill I decided to start a breakdown of was goal kicks. I chose to start with goal kicks because it's one of the more straight-forward skills. Check out the goal kicks page below: While breaking down Goal Kicks I included links to the rules  and especially focused on the new rule change that no longer requires a goal kick to leave the box to be in play. I also highlighted the importance of learning this skill for goalkeepers and shared some of my own experience improving this skill as I gained the size required to add power to my kick. One thing I recognized while d...
