The Levels of Development are
as follows:
*PRENATAL *INFANCY *CHILDHOOD *ADOLESCENCE
*ADULTHOOD *ELDERLY
The information you gather should be
relevant to the following categories of development:
*Physical
*Cognitive
*Social
*Emotional *Learning/Intellectual
*Gender/Roles/Stereotypes/Ethnicity
Your research can be done at
the school library (you will have a week in there), online, at
SSU or SRJC (or any other college). Your text is a great source
and I have other texts as well as papers, notes, articles, and
activities you may use. Field experience and interviews are some
of your best tools and many different accommodations (field
trips, etc.) can be made if you are organized and don't
procrastinate.
You will be presenting your
information to the class and may choose to present in a play,
skit, film, lecture w/demos/props, etc.
Creativity is rewarded but not
at the expense of the information. You will share your research
with the class in your presentation for their
knowledge/understanding. Whether you choose to make a video, or
any other medium, please review it so that it is coherent and
well-done.
You may use activities, snipits
of videos, pictures, visuals, just about anything to get your
audience to understand the information.
A planning stage will be due
which illustrates what you will do and how you will go about
doing it. Additionally, I would like to see your notes on your
topic. Please include in your research the major contributors
(Piaget, Erikson, etc.) to your particular area of Developmental
Psychology.
