Reference no: EM131779399

Final Project Guidelines

Complete a 10- to 12-page paper with the following two parts:

Part 1: Timeline Construction

Create a personal timeline of significant life events from birth to the present. Your timeline may be a line drawing or it may be outlined in an organizational chart or displayed in a chronological list.

Identify at least six significant events that you believe have impacted your identity development. Of these, at least one must have occurred during childhood, one during adolescence, and one during adulthood.

Part 2: Timeline Analysis

For each of the life events on your timeline, do the following:

o Describe the life event as age-graded, history-graded, or non-normative.

o Explain how it was significant to your development and why.

o Explain how it impacted or changed you cognitively, psychologically, and/or socially.

o Explain how each event and associated change influenced your identity development through your lifespan.

o Support your statements with developmental theory and integration of knowledge you gained throughout the course.

The Final Project will be evaluated according to the Final Project Rubric located in the Course Information area. Be sure that the Final Project is written using APA format.

Final Project Outline

In Week, you were asked to review the Final Project Guidelines and begin thinking about your timeline (Part 1) for the Final Project.

Consider what you have learned so far in this course and how you can use theory to support your understanding of identity development.

How do your experiences align with theory you have learned?

What new insights have you gained? As you move forward, be sure to identify salient elements of developmental theories and how these align with your life experiences.

For this Assignment, you are asked to provide a basic outline for your final project. Identify the six life events that you will use for your final project. Remember that at least one of each must have occurred in childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. For each event, briefly identify (2-3 sentences each) why this event was significant in your development.

Note: Although you must support your work with integration of developmental theory in the final submitted project, this is not necessary for this Assignment.
