This Presentation, I want the slides created and a document of what to say so I can video record my voice…..
INSTRUCTIONS: The Pecha Kucha presentation gives you an opportunity to choose from one of the categories. From now until the assignment is due, you should read thoroughly about the category you choose below and prepare slides to reflect your answer.
The following are the topics you need to choose from and keep in mind only one:
Culture—Who Am I?
Adolescence—The Invincibility Fable
Young Adulthood—Intimacy vs. Isolation
Late Adulthood—Living Until 100
Death and Afterlife—A Good Death
*Here are the specific topics you need to choose from (only one) and use the guidelines to help you with your presentation. *
Culture–Who Am I?
As noted in chapter one of our text, variations in human development occur due to differences in the “settings and circumstances” of people’s lives.
In this topic you’ll describe the settings and circumstances of your own life and explain how they influenced your development. Consider the many contexts that might have affected you; affiliation with a majority or minority culture, socioeconomic status, sex and gender, race/ethnicity, religion, and ability. Which of these has most heavily influenced your development? In what ways? Were you strengthened or challenged within these contexts, or maybe both?
Adolescence—The Invincibility Fable
For this topic, you will be looking back on those times in your adolescence when you felt and/or acted “invincible”. Based on the definition and discussion in the relevant chapter of the text, describe times when you behaved in ways that demonstrated you were experiencing this milestone.
The topic must focus on you and your experience (you cannot write or interpret the actions of a friend or family member Explain in accurate and detail slides how your experiences can be tied back to information from the text (not just invincibility, but any other relevant milestone that you might also have been demonstrating at the time)
Young Adulthood—Intimacy vs. Isolation
This topic will help you explore your experience with intimacy or isolation during your young adulthood years. You can focus on non-romantic/non-sexual relationships. If these relationships demonstrated intimacy, you would use slides to demonstrate your experienced isolation in your emerging adulthood years. Note that as you are giving examples of “intimacy” (or “isolation”) in the relationships you’ve chosen, you must make sure your slides clearly demonstrate your experience.
Intimacy: the desire and ability to fuse one’s identity with another and engage in “the mutuality of mature devotion”, the ability to “love”.
Concrete affiliations
Ethical strength
Sacrifice/Compromise
Vulnerability
Self-understanding
Self-expansion
Mutual caregiving
Secrets shared/kept.
Forgiveness
Empathy
Isolation: the fear of remaining separate and unrecognized, the retreat into promiscuity or “exclusivity”
Self-protection
Self-absorption
Avoidance/ambiguity about lifestyles, values, relationships
Jealousy
Loneliness
Dishonesty
Inability to compromise, compete, or cooperate.
When you present slides remember that you cannot be in both “intimacy” and “isolation”. You can move from one to the other over the course of time, but you cannot be in both. Choosing to separate yourself from an individual that was once a friend is NOT an example of “isolation”. When you isolate, you demonstrate several of the characteristics listed above in all your relationships. Please keep these distinctions in mind as you prepare your presentation.
Late Adulthood—Living Until 100
For this topic, you are simply addressing the question of whether you would like to live to 100 and explaining why (or why not) based on your experience, opinion, AND (as always) information from relevant chapters of the text, the late adulthood chapter in this case.
Students take many different approaches as you prepare your presentation. Several students have related their personal experience with people in late adulthood (clients, family members, close friends) and used what they have learned about those particular people as reasons for or against wanting to live until 100. Other students have speculated, based on their current health, finances, relationships, whether they will want to or be able to live that long. Whatever take you choose, you must make sure to tie in relevant information.
Death and Afterlife—A Good Death
For this one, you will be discussing your feelings related to a “good death”—one that is:
At the end of a long life
Quick
Peaceful
In familiar surroundings
With friends and family present
Without pain, confusion, or discomfort
In this topic you must display all six components—saying whether you agree that each is a characteristic of a good death, why or why not, and what that component will look like for YOU when that time comes.
As an example, you might take the component that states that a good death is one “with family and friends present”. If you agree with this, you could go on to use slides that would want with you at that time and what you would like them to be doing, saying, etc. Then, you might tie in slides about mourning and grief (since those will be relevant to the friends and family that you will be leaving behind). Don’t forget that you need to explain WHY those milestones are relevant (just like in all our work this semester)!
Overall, this topic is designed for you to take a close look at what you want your own death to be like and tie that perspective to information from the text in accurate and thorough ways.
