I also plan on using this to help shed light on various organizations created by teachers to support each other financially such as the Teachers Pay Teachers organization. This will then help me develop my point discussing why increasing teacher pay could benefit students who aren't getting the attention they need. ]]> 2023-07-12 21:42:01 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780132 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780172 This article discusses how teacher wages can affect student performance in schools. The author discusses how teacher pay has become insufficient in sustaining day-to-day life. This reasoning is why many teachers are finding other ways to add to their income on top of teaching classes. Due to this, many teachers are not giving their full attention to their students, affecting how they perform in the classroom. This, among other reasons discussed in the article, have attributed to an inconsistency between school performance levels as viewed by the government, which then cut spending more because of the inconsistencies.]]> 2023-07-12 21:42:14 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780172 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780194 This research connects fluidly with my discussion of teacher's wages. This will help me also transition into a discussion of how professional athletes earn their salaries from sources other than their base pay from their organizations. This article will also help me transition into a discussion of how each profession doesn't solely get their wages from their main job alone.]]> 2023-07-12 21:42:19 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780194 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780963 This article uses sports as a way to discuss how education affects other areas of people's lives. The author talks about how various professions, such as professional sports, can see varying levels of pay in correlation to the education received by the individual. The author also delves into how this phenomena can affect different social circles and scenarios such as how one would address a person who earns more than them, but has less education. This also highlights how an education isn't always necessary for a high-wage job if you work hard to develop your craft, like professional athletes do. Lastly, this article highlights the correlation between education levels in various professional organizations and how those affect members within the organizations while they work and also after they retire.]]> 2023-07-12 21:46:15 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780963 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780986 I plan on using this article as a way to help my transitions appear more smooth to the reader. This article does a really good job of talking about education using sports analogies, which I think makes the article much easier to read. I plan on using that as a way to have the reader hopefully connect with the article more personally by using some of those analogies.]]> 2023-07-12 21:46:21 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780986 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780999 I plan on using this article to help connect my points about education amongst professional athletes. This will also help me make my essay seem a little less antagonizing towards professional athletes. I found that this made very good points about how talent and hard work can also bring an individual a long way even without a lot of education.]]> 2023-07-12 21:46:25 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643780999 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781133 This article talks about the academic performance levels of student athletes. The author talks about the well-known topic of if student athletes are performing well academically or not. The author highlights how many student athletes also do well in school, but many also just scrape by academically. The author also uses some quantitative data to highlight how many college athletes are not exceeding academically and eventually drop out of college. Lastly, the author discusses how the lack of academic performance becomes a detriment to student athletes not just in school, but also in various social situations outside of school.]]> 2023-07-12 21:47:08 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781133 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781159 I believe that I can use this article to help me further my credibility on my topic. I also hope that the logos-driven data that is used here will help me to eliminate any form of bias that I may develop by using the hard facts that this article provides. Lastly, I think that this can be very good material to use to transition from the educational performance of collegiate athletes to the performance of professional athletes.]]> 2023-07-12 21:47:13 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781159 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781183 I plan on using this article to help solidify the ethos side of my essay. The data that the author uses in this really helps make their argument appear credible, which I want to mimic as best as I can. I plan on using this to help talk about the amount of focus on education that student athletes display over the course of their college careers if they choose to complete their degree.]]> 2023-07-12 21:47:20 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781183 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781403 I thought that this article paired so nicely with my topic. The author's arguments about the education and public health crisis really helped me think about how I wanted to structure my paper around those same issues. Lastly, the fact that the author highlighted the issue and used professional sports as a comparison led me to choose this article without a second thought.]]> 2023-07-12 21:48:32 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781403 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781459 This article will help me connect my thoughts about the educational crisis to the flourishing of the professional sports industry and what would happen if we relocated some of those funds. The author's highlighting of the benefits this could pose to public health will also allow for another example outside of education to be examined briefly. This will ultimately help me discuss just how much the professional sports industry makes comparably to industries that many would argue need it more.]]> 2023-07-12 21:48:48 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781459 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781561 This article talks about what would happen if the American sports industry didn't have as much money as it currently has. The author then takes this idea and uses it to talk about what would happen if that money were allocated into education or health care. The arguments made by the author very passionately talk about the education and public health crisis that America is currently in. The author then takes that idea and asks why we spend so much money on professional sports if such a pressing matter exists. The author finalizes the article with a call to action that leaves the reader questioning where they are spending their money.]]> 2023-07-12 21:49:23 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781561 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781699 This article, by Eric Hanushek, talks a lot about the challenges of being a teacher. The author talks a lot about how there is a lot of insufficient support for educators. Lower salaries than they deserve, improper working conditions, and also the general education level of the teacher contribute to some of the arguments made in the article. The author then uses these points to highlight some of the rewards for "sticking with teaching" despite many of these challenges. All the while highlighting how those challenges cost the American education system so many good teachers so often.]]> 2023-07-12 21:50:06 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781699 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781730 I plan on using this article to help me establish my foundation for the “education” side of my research question. I want to use this as a way to compare and contrast the challenges that teachers face to those that athletes face in their day-to-day workplace. This will also help me round out the edges of my argument about how insufficient pay to school districts as a whole contribute to a decline in teachers willing to teach in those districts.]]> 2023-07-12 21:50:14 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781730 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781765 I plan on using this article as a springboard for other subtopics such as wage discrepancies, working conditions, public opinion, and other themes. This article will serve as the juxtaposing source to the book by Frankl. Both that book and this article will help me talk about the challenges of pursuing both career paths respectively.]]> 2023-07-12 21:50:21 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781765 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781859 This book talks about how the machine that is the professional sports industry operates. The author talks about how the industry has grown exponentially over the course of the past 50 years and how it has affected American culture. The author also discusses how the large amounts of money that the industry makes is generates through ticket sales, food sales, and various other means. A comparison is also made of how different countries operate their industries in slightly different ways. Lastly, the author talks about how the increasing popularity of specific sports, such as soccer (fútbol) can positively or negatively affect a country's economy.]]> 2023-07-12 21:50:49 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781859 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781880 I found this book to be very informative; especially about how the professional sports industry works. I felt that this book helped me understand how the industry generates as much money as it does every year. I also found it very insightful and felt that it helped me eliminate a bit of my bias towards educator wages because of how "over the table" the sports industry is.]]> 2023-07-12 21:50:55 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781880 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781896 I plan on using this book to help connect the quantitative data from my primary sources to the qualitative data from the articles. This also will help me shed light on how simple, or complex, the professional sports industry is. Lastly, I plan on using this to help support the argument for why athletes get paid as much as they do.]]> 2023-07-12 21:50:59 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781896 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781956 I made this survey to get some immediate opinions from a stratified sample of people about Teacher and Professional Athlete Wages. I asked 15 employees at the Kroger Marketplace on Coventry Road five questions regarding the subject. The questions discussed if they watched professional sports often, if they believed that professional athletes deserve the amount of money they are paid, and if teachers are getting paid enough amongst other questions. The object was to retrieve a primary source that I could use for the project to help support my points. Overall, the sample provided me with a lot of interesting information that I look forward to using in my essay.]]> 2023-07-12 21:51:21 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781956 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781973 I plan on using the results of this survey to help me provide more quantitative data to my research.

A whopping 93% of the survey takers believed that teachers deserved more pay and that professional athletes received too much. I believe that this also will help me fill in any holes in my research that the quantitative-nature of the data can help fill.]]> 2023-07-12 21:51:30 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643781990 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643782120 This article highlights the challenging nature of pursuing a career in professional sports. The author discusses how challenging and competitive the market for professional athletes is, and also how many people don't end up going pro because of this. The author also talks about how pursuing a career can affect the families of these athletes who invest so much into their well-being for a chance to go pro. The rate at which professional athletes leave the profession is also discussed due to the increased chance of career-ending injury. Lastly, the article also talks about how those who end up making it to the big leagues and how they use their newfound influence to either help or hurt, their lives and the lives of those around them.]]> 2023-07-12 21:52:10 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643782120 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643782200 I plan on using this article as the meat of my argument about the pros and cons of pursuing a career in professional sports. The author talks a lot about the smaller investments that many forget athletes must make to achieve and maintain a competitive level of play consistently.

I plan on using this to help draw attention to the amount of effort that it takes for athletes to condition both their minds and bodies to achieve a high level of play. This also will be a staple source to use when I talk about how families invest themselves differently when a child says they want to pursue professional sports versus education as a career path.]]> 2023-07-12 21:52:18 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643782218 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643900809 Primary Source]]> 2023-07-13 01:14:11 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643900809 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643973724 Primary Source  ]]> 2023-07-13 02:16:45 UTC https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643973724 andresmirandareyes https://padlet.com/andresmirandareyes/h72y31xffqzdi25l/wish/2643973917 This graph displays the names and salaries of the world's highest-paid athletes between May 1st, 2022, and May 1st, 2023.
