Injury Prevention of the Meniscus

I. Prevention:

Within the literature there are ideas and or interventions that have shown to reduce the likelihood of sustaining your group’s specific injury. Your group should discuss in detail what is known about the prevention interventions, what the interventions are, and how they can reduce the likelihood of the injury. How long should the intervention take place? Make sure to include how long the intervention must be to see specific adaptations to the injury mechanisms for that specific injury. You should discuss any interventions that may not reduce the injury as well. It may be possible that your specific injury may have very limited information regarding any prevention techniques or interventions. If you think that is that case, email me to set up a time to meet to discuss what is in the literature about your group’s injury. This is something that must be done early. If a paper is turned in with nothing on prevention and the group did not have a meeting with the instructor, the group will receive a 0 for that section.

II. Optimal Prevention Strategy:

At the end of your prevention section, your group should discuss what might be an optimal prevention training program or strategy that can be utilized to reduce the likelihood of an athlete sustaining your group injury. This should be based on the literature you utilized in this section.

III. Background Information:

You must utilize peer reviewed research articles and references (citations) to support the information you proved for section 2.

IV. Rubric

1. Described multiple possible prevention strategies in the paper.

2. Detailed each prevention strategy program. What type of training was completed? What were the specific exercises? What was the specific sets/reps/time spent with each exercise?

3. Detailed how each prevention strategy reduced specific injury mechanisms.

4. Detailed the duration of prevention interventions to reduce injury mechanisms.

5. Describe how prevention interventions changed physiological or mechanical aspects to physical activity.

6. Discuss the possible optimal prevention training program based off the literature reviewed.

Obesity

Students will apply what they’ve learned about environmental science and the scientific method as it pertains to our environment. Search for a current environmental science issue, which can include (not limited to): air pollution, climate change, medicine, public health, education, disease, cancer, pesticides, food, obesity, etc. Put effort into this, but also have fun with it. There are many topics you can choose from. Your topic should be unique. Check the forums and make sure someone else hasn’t already covered your exact topic. Topics can also be current events, such as a proposed public policy, law, or action that the Environmental Protection Agency has taken, for example.

You’re not just summarizing what you find, you’re providing an academic/scientific input/perspective about the issue/event. In your own words, what is the problem, solution, is enough being done, what can be done, why do you agree/disagree? You should include scientific terms (see back of textbook) in your discussion post. The purpose of this is to show you demonstrate environmental science knowledge and can provide a professional/academic discussion of an environmental science issue.

All work must be in your own words. No quoting/copying is permitted, regardless of source. You can use sources for facts/figures/numbers (cite sources). Your sources should be scientific, such as a science journal, science department, science book, etc. Google offers many scientific/academic resources for free. Put effort into this. Your expected length, if this were a paper, is at least 1-2 pages of actual content – not filler material (excluding a cover or reference page count). Use a word processor to check your spelling/grammar – also save your work locally (backup). Present this as an informative piece that you could give to other college science students to read/discuss. Be adequate/thorough.
