Ice Hockey
After reading these artifacts about Ice Hockey and completing the Discourse analysis, I was able to link each of these articles and compare them. They were both very similar. When reading the article The Rules of Ice Hockey, I noticed that they kept it pretty basic. They stated the rules of the game including Offsides and Icing. I put these in the category saying/writing because they are very relevant when playing. For the category Doing, I wrote the objective is too score more than the other team. Thats how you win games. In the category Being, I wrote that each team is only allowed 20 players and two goalies. This shows the identity. Valuing is what social goods are relevant. For this category I put the quote “that hockey is considered to be “One of the fastest flowing sports in the world.” Believing is what is know as the truth. I put down that “The referee (who wears the orange stripe) controls the game and makes the final decision.” For Combinations I put down ,The blue lines and red lines combine to make different zones in the rink. This is the combination of two parts that make up the rink. In the article Ice Hockey, the facts are very similar. Some new facts I learned were “Hockey- French word for hoquet (shepherds stick).” I wrote that down in the say/writing category. Ive always wondered where the name came from. In the Doing category, I wrote, Wayne Gretzky dominated the NHL in the eighties. Gretzky is a big part in why hockey is so popular. For the Being category, I wrote that the Boston Bruins were the first american team to join the NHL. This is important in the being category because the Boston Bruins first helped developed the popularity of hockey in the US. Canada hockey was competing with lacrosse in the 1800’s as the most popular sport. This is valuable for hockey. In the Believing category I wrote, Hockey is known to be Canada’s sport. That is a statement believed worldwide. In the combinations category I wrote that the NHL started with 6 teams and now has 30. This shows how both Canada and the US combined to make the sport more popular.
