Project Proposal

Caleb, Alex, Dexter, Majed

Carolina Panthers
UWRT 1102

For our semester long project, we have chosen the Carolina Panthers. We chose this topic
because we all have a similar interest in sports. We feel as is we can create a thorough,
well-put together project and presentation regarding this topic. Within our topic, we plan
to focus on many smaller sub topics. These will include:

Economic impact on the Charlotte area

Revenue/Sales

Involvement in the community

Impact of team success

History of the organization

Employees and team

To present our findings, we will create an attention grabbing PowerPoint and show what
we have learned to the class. We look forward to this process, and hope to reflect our
knowledge on our fellow classmates. To present this knowledge, we plan to use the
visual and aural mode in our presentation. We feel as if the pictures, videos, and sounds
will really catch the audiences attention and get our point across.
As mentioned before, we will present our project through a PowerPoint
presentation. We will put together a creative and thorough project to show what we have
learned throughout our research. We plan to use many forms of research. Our group will

find relevant information concerning our topic using the Internet, our school library, local
fans, and hopefully a primary source (someone involved with the organization). We hope
to find someone within the Panthers that would be willing to allow us to quickly
interview them to get a better insight into the organization. Our final presentation will be
creative and will successfully present the information we have learned about the Carolina
Panthers in our research throughout the semester.
The Carolina Panthers are a very important part of the Charlotte area. They bring
in a lot of revenue to the area and create a lot of excitement for the fans and citizens of
the Carolinas. We chose this topic because each of us share a common interest in, not
only just sports, but the Panthers specifically. We feel as if our previous and learned
knowledge on this topic will teach our audience about the importance of this sports
organization. Our media aspect will be very creative and interesting, capturing the
audiences attention while informing them about our topic.
Each of our group members looks forward to working with each other and
creating a successful project. We feel as if we will work together very well, cooperating
successfully. We all plan on researching information about our topic. Alex has taken the
responsibility of emailing and attempting to research a reliable primary source. He has
thought about possible interviewees and composed a few drafts of possible emails.
Dexter and Majed will find other resources and information about the Panthers. They will
research the history and impact of the Panthers. Caleb will help with the research as well
as creating the PowerPoint presentation. While each of us have a specified role in the
group, we are a team and will work together to create a successful, well thought out
project to present to our peers.

To begin our semester long project, we will create a plan or a timeline on when
we hope to get each aspect of our project completed. With a project like this, it is
important to be on top of dates to ensure that you have enough time to get everything
done to the best of your ability. We will begin by specifying our sub topics and deciding
on what we will focus on. Then, we will begin the research position of our project. Each
of us will have a topic and find relevant, interesting information to include in our
presentation. After we have the information we need, we will begin the creation of the
presentation. We hope to create a creative and interesting PowerPoint to keep the
audience engaged and interested.
Our group looks forward to creating an interesting project, while informing our
audience about the importance of the Panthers organization, as well as the history and
future of the team. This will be a great learning experience for all of us and we hope to
successfully inform our audience of our findings.
