Capstone Finalized Draft Details Worksheet

Name: Abby Charlesworth


Topic: Young women in sport
Strand: Project
Inquiry Question: Why are young girls so much more likely to drop out of sports than boys?
Presentation Method: Power Point
Presentation Time & Date: Jan 17th 11:15 am

1) Capstone Project Summary:


In the box below, please type out a 200 – 300 word summary highlighting the key points and
information that you plan to present during your Capstone Project presentation.

In my capstone presentation I plan to share a PowerPoint with four main topics and key points. The first
point is why young girls are dropping out of sport. In this section I will go over the data from the survey I
created and compare my results with other survey's done by Canadian women in sport, and the Womens
Sport Foundation. I will have charts and graphs so my data can be shared visually. The next key point of
my presentation is personal accounts of women's time in sport and why or why not they decided to
participate in sport. In this section I will have quotes from my interviews with the three people I have
chosen. A coach from my canoe club, a friend who has been in and out of sport and a female P.E. teacher.
The third section of my presentation is about female professional sports. In this section I will discuss how
young female athletes can be discouraged by the underrepresentation of female sports in media. I will
also address how high-level female athletes are paid drastically different then male athletes of the same
level. In the last section I will discuss how we can solve this issue and how to keep young girls in sport
longer.

2) Core Competencies:
In the boxes below, explain how your project or the work we’ve done in CLC 12 Class demonstrates
your abilities and skills from each section of the Core Competencies. (You must choose at least two
points from each skill area of the core competencies.) *This was also done in your Capstone Draft
Proposal, so if the skills and abilities still apply and have not changed, then you can copy and paste
your answers in the Final Capstone Proposal*

Core Competency: How you demonstrate it in your Capstone Project:


Personal Awareness & -self motivating and completing interviews on my own time
Responsibility -understanding learning takes time and that there may not be an easy
explanation to my research question
Social Responsibility -Appreciating different perspectives, different people's ideas on whether
it's an issue or not and how to fix it.
-Positive peer relationships, they are ok with sharing their experiences
Critical Thinking -Analyzing my work and research to come to conclusions on my topic
-Understanding the purpose of my work and how it will hopefully help
others
Creative Thinking -I can take my ideas and develop them to create something productive
like discovering why young girls drop out of sport
-Persevering and understanding failure can be productive
Communication -I can engage in deep and meaningful inquiry
-I can work well with other students to plan, inquire, and solve problems
Personal & Cultural Identity -I understand what is important to me
-I understand what has value and will shape my choices
