The following guidelines are designed to assist you to complete your government (public)-sport policy<\/p>\n
analyses.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
LEARNING OUTCOME:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u0095 This assessment is designed to engage you in a comparative analysis of a range of government<\/p>\n (public) policies for sport in Australia, so that you develop a critical understanding of the ways in<\/p>\n which such policies are developed and implemented.<\/p>\n ASSESSMENT TOTAL:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u0095 This assessment is an individual student task (it is not done in groups).<\/p>\n \u0095 Your written analysis is worth 50% of your total assessment.<\/p>\n \u0095 Total marks = 50 (Content [45 marks] + Presentation [5 marks]).<\/strong><\/p>\n DUE DATE & HOW TO SUBMIT:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u0095 Your policy analysis is due Friday June 3<\/p>\n rd<\/p>\n by 4:00pm.<\/p>\n \u0095 It will be submitted by uploading your analysis through the link at the bottom of the LMS page.<\/p>\n WORD LIMIT:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u0095 You are required to individually complete 1 x 2,500-word written report (your cover page and<\/p>\n reference list are excluded from your word count).<\/p>\n \u0095 As you are addressing seven policy problems, each one should be covered in approximately 300 words<\/p>\n (i.e. 7 policy problems x 300 words each = approx. 2,100 words)<\/p>\n \u0095 This leaves approximately 400 words for your synthesis statement (conclusion).<\/p>\n LEARNING RESOURCES: <\/strong><\/p>\n \u0095 To assist your analysis, use chapters from the key texts for this subject (downloadable from the LMS):<\/p>\n o Stewart, B., Nicholson, M., Smith, A. & Westerbeek, H. (2004). Australian sport: Better by <\/em><\/p>\n design? The evolution of Australian sport policy.<\/em> London, UK.<\/p>\n o Nicholson, M., Hoye, R., & Houlihan, B. (2010). Participation in sport: International policy <\/em><\/p>\n perspectives<\/em>. Oxford, UK: Routledge.<\/p>\n \u0095 Other weekly readings available for each problem on the LMS;<\/p>\n \u0095 The lecture for each of the policy problems;<\/p>\n \u0095 Any additional materials that are clearly relevant to each policy problem that you can discover<\/p>\n yourself (e.g. Websites of sport organisations, journal articles, government reports, etc.)<\/p>\n ASSESSMENT CRITERIA:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u0095 You are required to prepare a comparative analysis of government (public) <\/strong>sport policy (not<\/p>\n organisational policy) that addresses the seven policy areas identified<\/p>\n in Weeks 6 to 12 of the Subject Guide.<\/p>\n \u0095 These seven policy areas are:<\/p>\n (1) Elite sport & Sport Pathways (Week 6);<\/p>\n (2) Sport Participation & Junior Sport (Week 7);<\/p>\n (3) Sport Betting (Week 8);<\/p>\n (4) Sport Broadcasting (Week 9);<\/p>\n (5) Drugs in Sport (Week 10);<\/p>\n (6) Stadia & Events (Week 11);<\/p>\n (7) Harassment & Discrimination (Week 12).<\/p>\n \u0095 You are required to focus on one stage of the \u201c6-stage policy process<\/p>\n model\u201d outlined in Chapter 2 (p. 28) of the Stewart et al. (2004) text.<\/p>\n That is, Stage 4 (\u201cPolicy implementation\u201d).<\/em><\/strong> In other words, the implementation of policy is the lens<\/strong><\/p>\n through which you are looking at a range of sport policy problems.<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The following guidelines are designed to assist you to complete your government (public)-sport policy analyses.
