I’ll put the instructions for this paper below so make sure to look at the file I put below!!! You need it for this paper!!!
The aim for this paper is to integrate what you have been learning about developmental stages across the lifespan. To do so, you will first interview someone in a developmental stage of your choice. Your paper will be an account of what you learned from your interview and from the class about development in the interviewee’s current life stage and the stages that preceded it.
You should address:
• Describe your interviewee. What stage are they developmentally? What
social groups do they belong to or identify with (gender, race/ethnicity,
etc.)?
• Hallmarks of development in the interviewee’s current developmental stage
• “Individual differences” in the interviewee’s experiences and development
• Prior developmental periods, transitions between periods, and changes
across time
Part of this assignment is designing your interview questions and conducting the interview, while the second part is translating those responses and applying course concepts to understand them better. Thus, your questions should be prepared in advance of the interview and attached to your paper as an appendix. Questions may arise during the interview and you can note those as well.
Your interviewee is doing you a favor by participating in this project. Please ask for their permission before you interview them and explain how their responses will be used. You may use a pseudonym in the paper – it is not necessary that they be identifiable. If you are interested in developmental periods before emerging adulthood (i.e., anyone under age 18), please obtain permission from their parents as well. If you are interested in childhood development, you may need to interview a parent primarily, and ask supplemental questions of the child. If you are interested in infancy or toddlerhood, you may be more limited to asking questions of the parent only (and that is just fine!). If you are interested in childhood, toddlerhood, or infancy and you interview a parent, be sure to note in the paper with whom you spoke and why.
In your paper, paint a picture of the individual, their development in the current life stage, their development in prior life stages, and the ways in which their development has changed over time. You should also address how they may be individually different from the kinds of developmental patterns we have talked about. You should use specific course concepts.
Format:
Your paper should be approximately 750-1000 words of body text (approx. 3-4 pages), double-spaced, 12pt Times New Roman font with 1″ margins. It should comply with APA style (7th ed.) in terms of formatting a title page, formatting any subheadings, and in-text and reference list citations. Any sources you use should be appropriately cited in the paper and included as a reference list at the end. The reference list DOES NOT count toward your word count!!!
The grading rubric is in the file I put below as well so you can see exactly what is needed to get the best grade possible on this paper.
