HMST2190 Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Sports Equipment
Document Summary
The first paralympic games were in the 1960s. Website (e-history) allows the viewer to create their own narrative about the history of paralympic sport. Paralympic history now has an online history (i. e. , website) Sports equipment is custom made and very specific for that sport. A lot of sports cross over from olympic games but they are modified for paralympics. Over 1000 articles have been created and over 10 million-page views on the project. No coherent narrative with e-history; whereas the written history (book) provides a coherent narrative written by the author.
