Progress

1. The research I have started so far includes reading several Aquatic Journals and magazines. Also informally speaking with fellow coaches and swimmers about when interview times would be available
2.Questions I plan on asking in the interview vary depending on the person because of the diversity of people I plan on speaking with and listing them would take two day and be way too much repetitious work. Most questions will be to answers I don't already have otherwise there would be no point in interviewing them
3. I have visited my cultural site. I visit it daily so it the shock and awe factor isn't really there anymore. Its a pool. Smells like a pool. Hot like a pool. I listed more description in Essay #1 for the class. Questions in regards to the facility will be asked in the interview with the maintenance director of the facility
4.In response to whether or not I've done academic research refer to my #1 answer
5. And lastly, yes there is a difference between academic and non academic research. Academic research involves reading, books, articles, stuff like that. Non academic research involves personal experiences that more than likely cannot be documented in print
