Story #4 Reflection//Karlee Spirit

For this story, I used KnightLab to create a historical timeline of the Wake Forest Men’s Golf team. As a member of Wake Forest athletics and a huge fan of the men’s golf team, I aimed to not include any bias facts, thoughts or opinions throughout my timeline and stated strictly historical and current events. Upon doing research of the history of Wake Forest men’s golf, I chose a number of events I believed were the most significant to the program and to the growth of its prestigious reputation. I was even able to gather a few different perspectives and views towards some of the events and important victories (quote from Woody Woodward and athletic director Ron Whellman). Because I was not able to base this digital story off of anything I did before, I was unaware of the standards and expectations. Thankfully, Anna edited my story and was able to assist me in minimizing the length of my text and focus on the main point followed by the supporting facts. In all, I really liked preparing and putting together this digital story. It took me a lot longer than I had expected, but I sincerely enjoyed getting to know more about the significance and historical events of our golf program. It was interesting to learn about their past accomplishments and become knowledgeable on the current status of the team.
