Transgender in the Elite Athletic World PowerPoint presentation
Question Description
Create an educational PowerPoint presentation about Transgender in the Elite Athletic World. The goal is to show that you understand the research-based facts about
human sexuality; apply what you’ve learned to a broad audience; and develop
technical writing and presenting skills. You are required to have five scholarly sources for your
presentation. You will be required to turn in your APA references page via
dropbox.
• Scholarly sources are those that are published and written by experts for the
purpose of sharing original research or analyzing information. This could be
in the form of articles or books

• Have fun and be creative! Using Power Point,
create your presentation. You will want your presentation to be a fun and
information demonstration of your topic. Reminder: Be sure you DEFINE 10 TERMS we’ve learned from the
textbook. Make sure to underline each term used so I can easily I identify
your work. The powerpoint must be a minimum of 12 slides, though I would prefer 15 or more especially if you are using graphs and photos in your presentation.
I am arguing that while I accept a persons choice to be transgender, there are physical and biological issues with them competing in the elite athletic world. The International Olympic Committee has stringent guidelines in place for transgender athletes, but are there still physical differences between male and female physiques that provide an unfair advantage? I have listed a few of the scholarly articles I’ve researched, I also need to include the actual physical and biological differences between male and female bodies.
