Final Multimedia Project Storyboard

Name: Stephanie Quinn Name of project: What do Sir Isaac Newton and Your Brain Have in Common? Objective: The purpose of this piece is two fold; it will serve as an introduction to a unit on force and motion and also to educate students and perhaps parents of the possibilities of concussions in all contact sports. Slide # Audio Image Duration 1 Narration:

In recent years the NFL has brought much attention to the possibility that there are long-term affects of concussions in sports. As the definition of concussion changes and we learn more about the connection between how concussions occur in each sport we will be better prepared to prevent long-term effects of such injuries.

In this media presentation you will learn the current statistics on concussions in various sports, what happens to the brain during a concussion, and what can be done about concussions.

Text and effect: Did you know? Concussions can occur in a wide variety of sports including but not limited to: football, hockey, rugby, wrestl9ing horse back riding, lacrosse, basketball, cheerleading and soccer. Most concussions do not involve loss of consciousness. Concussions typically do not appear in neuroimaging studies such as MRI or CAT scans. Returning to soon after a concussion puts you at a higher risk of sustaining additional concussions Female High school soccer players suffered almost 40% more concussions than male soccer players. Females and younger athletes have weaker neck muscles putting them at a greater risk for sports related concussions.

Text and effect: A 2010 Canadian study found that the risk of concussion in youth ice hockey leagues that allow body-checking is triple that of leagues that do not allow body checking. Most professional hockey players skate about 30 mph and weigh in at about 230 pounds. The force exerted when one player intentionally checks another is comparable to a tackle in football Collegiate women's ice hockey yielded the most concussions overall.

Text and effect: What happens to your brain during a concussion?





The adult brain is a three-pound organ that basically floats inside the skull. It is surrounded by cerebral spinal fluid, which acts as a shock absorber for minor impacts. When the brain moves rapidly inside the skull, a concussion has technically occurred. One common scenario that can lead to a concussion is a direct blow to the head or a whiplash effect to the body. The impact rapidly accelerates the head, causing the brain to strike the inner skull (i.e., the coup). When the head decelerates and stops its motion, the brain then hits the opposite side of the inner skull). The second common scenario is a rotational concussion, in which the head rapidly rotates from one side to another causing shearing and straining of brain tissues. In either case, delicate neural pathways in the brain can become damaged, causing neurological disturbances.

There are distinct differences in age when it comes to managing sport related concussions. Recent research demonstrates that high school athletes not only take longer to recover after a concussion when compared to collegiate or professional athletes, but they also may experience greater severity of symptoms and more neurological disturbances as measured by neuropsychological and postural stability tests. It is also estimated that 53% of high school athletes have sustained a concussion before participation in high school sports, and 36% of collegiate athletes have a history of multiple concussions. Because the frontal lobes of the human brain continue to develop until age 25, it is vital to manage youth concussions very conservatively to ensure optimal neurological development and outcomes. Neuropsychological testing has been used for over 30 years in the assessment of cognitive function after concussive injuries. Neuropsychological tests are designed to measure cognitive skills and abilities such as intelligence, problem solving, memory, concentration, impulse control, and reaction time, to name a few. At the Sports Concussion Institute, both computerized and standard paper-and-pencil tests are utilized to gather evidence-based, comprehensive data on cognitive functioning before (i.e., Baseline Test) and after (i.e., Post-Injury Test) a concussive injury occurs.
