Remember this is a course on human development so when looking for articles make sure they are related to the subject matter covered in the course. To help in your search here are some of the major areas we covered in this course (these are meant as a guide, not specific topics to find).
Major developmental theories across the lifespan
Nature of geographic, gender, social, cognitive, emotional, and developmental factors during each period of development
Developmental factors that impact one another.
Historical and current trends in development
Current trends which may differentially impact the future development of populations in the United States
Social, and diversity issues related to developmental psychology
With the major areas above in mind, focus on at least two of the following age groups:
Childhood
Adolescence
Adulthood
Older Adults
First, give an overview of each article, including:
Write a 2-paragraph summary for each article.
Write a 1-2 paragraph analysis and evaluation for each article found.
Make sure to integrate course material in that analysis
Then, write a summary (1-2 pages) integrating what was leaned from the articles reviewed on the chosen age groups as seen from the life-span perspective. Cover the following in that summary:
What similarities did you find in the types of research and what was being studied? What differences did you find?
Based on your course readings, what developmental theories did you find that were applicable?
Explain how the life-span perspective may provide a way of better understanding the research reviewed.
The perceptions about growing older into older adulthood often do not match the realities of being an older adult.
For this assignment,
explain some of the myths regarding older adults and some of the realities they often face.
Put special emphasis on the social-economic and the physical factors that you have found in your readings and research on this topic.
Based on your experiences how would you interpret these myths and realities of older adults? Make sure to justify your answers by citing relevant sources.
In this essay you will make an argument about a text grounded in your close reading. Your paper should focus on a single passage or block of lines from one of the primary texts assigned in Unit 2. You may also bring in other portions of the text, or other texts by the same author, if your argument requires. Be sure to directly quote the lines that you are close reading: the quotations are your evidence, and close reading is how you interpret and explain that evidence. Imagine (as in fact the case) you’re writing for an audience who is familiar with the text, but does not have it memorized or open in front of them.
Sonnet 15
When I consider everything that grows
Holds in perfection but a little moment,
That this huge stage presenteth nought but shows
Whereon the stars in secret influence comment;
When I perceive that men as plants increase,
Cheered and check’d even by the selfsame sky,
Vaunt in their youthful sap, at height decrease,
And wear their brave state out of memory;
Then the conceit of this inconstant stay
Sets you most rich in youth before my sight,
Where wasteful Time debateth with Decay
To change your day of youth to sullied night;
And all in war with Time for love of you,
As he takes from you, I engraft you new.
