Dope: A History of Performance Enhancement in Sports from the Nineteenth Century to Today

This is a book that i shall be using for my research and to gain knowledge of the history of performing enhancing drugs within sport. I shall be using this book to help me with the 'history' section of the website that I am going to be creating, i will either rent this book from the local library or purchase it.

This book will help me with my research into the history of drugs within sport, i will also use other sources such as the internet to help me with this. After I have conducted all of my research into the history of drugs in sport, i shall produce a timeline off all of the major drug stories within sport in the last century, this timeline will be included withing the 'history' section of my website.

Meeting with Supervisor about 'Initial Planning'

Website Structure

This is the website structure that I will follow when creating my website. As you can see from the image above the website will contain 5 different web pages, all of these webpages will link to each other, which mean each webpage is accessible from any of the other webpages on the website. The 5 webpages that I will create for my website will be a Home Page, Drugs Page, Sports Page, History Page and Prevention of Drugs in Sport Page. On this website structure I have included a few bullet points on each page, this gives a brief overview of the kind of information that will be included on each webpage. I follow this structure whilst creating my website.

Change of Title for Extended Project

After a discussion with my supervisor discussing my intial thoughts and ideas I have decided to change the tiltle of my Extended Project from 'Drugs In Sport' to 'The Impact of Drugs on Professional & Amatuer Sport. The main reason for changing the title of my project is that the original title was to vague, so therefore i needed to decided on a new title that is more specific. 

Mind Map - Draft

I decided to create a first draft of a Mind Map. The main reason for doing this was so that I could get all of my ideas down on one bit of paper and in a structured way. I decided to have five sub branches off of the main one, these are, History, Personal Research, Drugs, Sports & Drug Tests. These will form the basis of my research into each section and how i develop the project. Now I have a hand drawn Mind Map the next step I will do is to put this into software called Matchware MindView, this software will alow me to create a electronic version of this Mind Map and will also allow to me to use the Mind Map to create a time line for my project so that I can keep time and make sure that I follow my own deadlines for each section of the project that I will be setting myself.

Delicous Account

I have decided to creat a personal Delcious Account. Delicous is a website where you can store and save your website bookmarks. I believe that this will be extremely useful for me as I will be able to access all the websites that I have seen as a benefit to my work. All of these website links will be stored in one place which means they are easy to access, and they are also listed by the date that they have been saved which is also helpful.

Mind Map - Final Version

This is the final version of the mind map that I have been evolving to form the base of my Extended Project. The software that I have used to create this Mind Map is MatchWare Mindveiw. This software is extremely easy to use, and has helped me getting all my ideas down that I have had on Drugs In Sport. I can follow this Mind Map to make sure that I am covering all the topics that I have got down on this Mind Map.
