Module 4 Assignment<\/p>\n
1. 2010 Winter Games will provide opportunities for the District of West Vancouver from Capilano University Data Base.
\n2. The document is a letter written to a Dr. Lee from the District of West Vancouver. The letter is dated from July 14th 2005 regarding the 2010 winter Olympics and the potential opportunities predicted for the District of West Vancouver. The letter states that the games could provide the community with tourism, sport, education, arts and cultural activities, recreation, investment. (Wood, 2005)
\n3. The original function and intended purpose of the letter was to notify President Lee the overview of the process the committee had come up with and the work they had implemented. The letter went into detail through certain dates pertaining to the consultation process in order to explain how the committee achieved their mandate. The letter also stated that there would be a brochure released in the coming months and that the committee had presented their recommendations to the council. The letter made it clear that the committees work was now complete but the communities planning had just begun.
\n4. There are no arguments presented within the letter. The letter is from a reliable source since it directly written from a member of the 2010 Olympic Council Committee.
\n5. Anything pertaining from the letter regarding the date of its creation is around the preparation beginning from 2003 and planning till 2010. The community is predicted to reap the benefits of the Olympics before, during, and after the 2010 games. From the time the letter is written, it is clear that much has been done since 2003 and there is much more to do.
\n6. Due to the thorough explanation of how the council put together a committee to organize how to best maximize the benefits of the 2010 Winter Olympics; there could be question regarding the achievement of the West Vancouver District\u2019s preparation. The letter could easily support a thesis questioning How the District of West Vancouver prepared for the 2010 Winter Olympics?
\n7. As stated in question six, the letter described how the committee prepared for the event by asking local residences, attending committee meetings, and more. I would look for secondary sources or more primary sources regarding the committees\u2019 preparation to gain more information to analyze. I would also research the establishment of the West Vancouver 2010 Olympic Select Committee in the fall of 2003 for even more information to draw from. Overall I would do a content analysis and present my findings in order of importance of context.
\n8. Since I would be doing a content analysis, I would present my data in the form of an essay as I would find the simple paragraph structure adequate to present my information in order of importance with supporting paragraphs.
\n9. The letter is not very descriptive about the past work done, since it only provides a summary for the creation of the committee under the District of West Vancouver. I would like to know more about the communities planning in the future towards the games before 2010. I am sure information on this would not be difficult to find as the 2010 Winter Olympics was a turning point for Vancouver and British Columbia all together. There are probably many fonds of this information in the North and West Vancouver Districts\u2019 archives.
\n10. As stated in question seven I would look for more secondary sources regarding the committees\u2019 preparation and the establishment of the West Vancouver 2010 Olympic Select Committee in the fall of 2003. The 2010 Olympic report produced by the District of West Vancouver Selected by 50th Anniversary History Team would be a valuable secondary source as it created roughly around the same time as the letter and goes over the history of the 2010 Olympic Committee in great detail. Another would be a 2010 Committee report to the council which would further my analysis on the committees\u2019 preparation and establishment. A third secondary source would be a small poster regarding voluntary enlistment to West Vancouver\u2019s 2010 Olympic Committee. This would help me find information regarding the formation of the committee prior to the written letter. My fourth source would the fonds of the Vancouver Organizing Committee for the 2010 Olympic Games from the City of Vancouver archives. The last source would a CBC news article regarding the debt from the games and the revenue produced through the committee to bring in an example of the results and overall efficiency of the Olympic committee after the games.<\/p>\n
