5. I believe that I have successfully met all the course objectives: I have written each type of message and identified where and how I could strengthen those messages. I have written well-formed (and short!) emails. I have used models of persuasion to help me create my business messages. I have demonstrated that I can identify unethical methods of persuasion—a skill that has been solidly boosted by my military training. I can create all of the types of business messages that we have studied, including memos, emails, presentations, resumes, and letters, including the elusive cover letter. I have demonstrated my ability to evaluate and improve PowerPoint presentations—and when to avoid them. I have conducted an information interview and have plans to continue with those. I am now reflecting on and integrating—in my writing here, and my thinking—the course concepts. I am very glad that I had the opportunity to take this course.

The current paper outlines the case of Tom, an 18 year old goalkeeper who recently moved up in class from youth to adult football. Tom has a history of being confident in his abilities as a goalkeeper and had the reputation of being one of the most proficient goalkeepers at youth level.. Since stepping up to adult football, Tom has realised he has a major weakness when striking balls that are passed back to him on his non-preferred left foot. The paper discusses the variables involved and uses the principles of motor skill training to outline a program for Tom.

Community means more than people who live in proximity and occupy the same relative environment. Community, when in reference to terms such as community participation and community engagement, means several orders of interaction and motivation. People who participate in their communities are internally motivated. They care about the community socially, culturally, environmentally, economically, and otherwise; their motivation extends into action that supports their belief in their community. Community participation in many parts of the world may be the best and fastest ways for communities to rectify their own problems and establish firm ties with public administration and government.
