How is biomechanics used in the professional literature of other physical activity professions?
Find a professional journal (hard copy or online) in a career that interests you (for example, the Journal of Physical Education, Recreation and Dance; Journal of Biomechanics; Strategies: A Journal for Physical and Sport Educators; International Journal of Sports Medicine). Write a literature review that includes answers to the following questions:
What was the purpose or the main topic of the article?
How was biomechanics important in this article? For example, were biomechanical instruments used to measure the data? Was the author’s information based on biomechanical principles? If so, which principle?
How can you relate this information in your career choice?
Introduction
The introduction of a literature review serves the same purpose as an introduction in any other type of paper or essay. The introduction should include a statement of the problem, briefly explain the significance of your topic study (to the education field and the world if applicable), and act as a way to introduce the reader to your definitions and background. This sets the theoretical framework for your paper.
Body of Literature Review
The body of your literature review should summarize the findings of studies that have been conducted on your topic. For each study you should briefly explain its purpose, procedure for data collection and major findings. This is the section where you will discuss the strengths and weaknesses of particular studies.
Discussion
The discussion should be similar to a conclusion portion of an essay paper. It serves as a summary of the body of your literature review and should highlight the most important findings (in your opinion.) There needs to be a sense of completion to the whole piece in this section. Your analysis should help you to draw conclusions. In this section you would discussion any consensus or disagreement on the topic. It can also include any strengths and weaknesses in general of the research area. If you believe there is more to research you may include that here.
Reference Page
The reference page contains a list of the sources of information you used and cited in your paper. Only include those cited in the text but be sure to include every citation. This section must follow APA format. In general, your paper should show a sense of direction and contain a definite central idea supported with evidence. The writing should be logical and the ideas should be linked together in a logical sequence. The ideas need to be put together in a way that is clear to the writer and to the reader.
Be sure to use APA format, as specified in the APA 5th edition handbook.
