Prompt: Answer both questions below, providing as much specific detail as possible and sources to back up your statements (APA format). The answers should be well thought out and in your own words.
1. Consider the Foster et al. (2006) financial drivers of professional sport clubs (Document Financial Sustainability included with the exam). Choose one sport team (your choice) and analyze the organization using each of the six factors.
2. The National Basketball Association (NBA) season is underway, and the Indiana Pacers have one of the lowest attendance in the NBA (http://www.espn.com/nba/attendanceLinks to an external site.). Using the knowledge you learned this semester, discuss three realistic, specific ways to help the Pacers raise their attendance (must include specific financial advice) to the ownership of the Indiana Pacers for this season.
Do not recommend obtaining a player unless you can make it a realistic scenario, including the player wanting to play for the Pacers.
All your recommendations need to be supported by data.
Do not be generic or vague. Examples: The team already has a social media account, and they already offer group ticket discounts, which is obviously not working.
Your grade will depend on critical thought and using techniques you learned this semester.
Although I shouldn’t have to state this, I want to remind everyone. This is your final exam; if you use AI or plagiarize, your final exam will be sent directly to the department’s chairperson. I have AI detectors and plagiarism software checking each paper.
Format: Times New Roman, 12 pt font, double-spaced
Documentation Style: American Psychological Association (APA). You must provide accurate references and accurate in-text citations for each direct quote or paraphrase that you include.
Included a document and upload my rough draft.

The Digital Revolution and Its Impact on Media Ecology The Digital Revolution and Its Impact on Media Ecology The digital revolution, also known as the information age, has brought about significant changes in our media ecology. With the rise of digital technologies and the
Media ecology was developed as a theoretical paradigm during the mass media era but
remains valuable as a way to critically analyze and understand ‘new’ media. Using our
readings related to this topic (McLuhan, Postman, Ong, Innis, Carpenter, Carr), write a
critical reflection on how the digital revolution has impacted our media ecology.
You may focus on a particular type of media content (some examples are listed below)
or think more broadly about how the digital world is different than the media landscape
which preceded it. As you compare/contrast today’s media with older forms of media,
you may also refer to our readings related to those mediums (print, radio, film,
television) to strengthen your argument.
This is intended to be a fairly open-ended question; you are welcome to choose one
specific aspect to focus on but be sure to incorporate at least four of the readings along
with your own critical reflections.
Possible topics:
Digital media-related phenomena (e.g. binge-watching, live tweeting)
Politics
Education
Dating/Relationships
Social media platforms
Videogames and gaming
Entertainment franchises (e.g. Marvel, Star Wars, Game of Thrones)
Sports
Specific apps (e.g. Spotify, Uber, Venmo). Overall, the response should be about 1000 to 1500 words (4 to 6 pgs.). Double-
spaced, 12pt. font, 1” margins with page numbers, and your name. APA- style citations
and works cited. -

“Perspectives on Inequality and Equality in America: Examining Primary Sources from 1865 to the Present”
This writing assignment focuses on the topic of inequality and equality in America between 1865 and the present. It challenges you to examine the historical documents from the period that relate to that topic (e.g. the primary sources) and to place those documents in the context of the secondary sources and lecture material from the course. The goal, in other words, is to demonstrate your ability to think like a historian by critically analyzing the types of evidence that historians utilize to make sense of the past and to answer the questions that interest us.
To begin this assignment, select at least three primary sources from the course that offer three different perspectives on the nature and experience of equality and/or inequality in the United States. You might choose, for instance, the primary documents that deal with any of the following or other topics:
race relations,
immigration,
imperial politics,
class inequality,
religious conflict, or
gender experiences.
You need not pick a single subject, such as race, but may choose to look at equality and inequality from three different episodes and perspectives from different time periods that intrigue you. Your paper should focus on the primary source documents but also draw on the unit lectures and textbook readings to contextualize those documents.
Your paper needs to contain a clear thesis statement. That thesis statement should make some claim about the character of the various American perspectives on inequality and equality in the United States that you have chosen to examine in your paper.
Provide a title to your essay that captures its content. There is no need for an individual title page.
Include page numbers in the right upper corner, excepting the first page.
Double-space your essay, with the exception of long quotations, which should be indented and single spaced.
Provide citations for the documents and sources you use. Cite these documents with footnotes or endnotes. Do not also include a bibliography for this short paper.
Check both spelling and grammar
Use the Chicago Manual of Style for citations -
