1. Select AI Tools: Describe the AI tool(s) you selected and explain how it is being used to create your psychoeducation parenting program ( I selected ChatGPT). Specify if AI tools will be implemented in your program, if applicable. Since AI is still considered experimental technology be aware of inaccurate or misrepresented information that may be provided. You will be utilizing the AI program to generate ideas and your overall outline.

2. Psychology Research: Select two psychology articles from peer-reviewed journals related to your topic of choice. You will need to access PsycInfo via the FIU Library system to identify two articles relevant to your topic published between the years of 2018-2024. Since we cannot rely on AI for health, wellness or other forms of professional advice the integration of psychological research in your program outline is an important aspect of this assignment. The two publications need to be provided in APA format on the final page titled, "References". It is important to obtain this information from a database such as PsycInfo or ERIC to ensure they are reliable sources, especially since AI technology is actively addressing reference accuracy.

It is highly discouraged to locate an article for this assignment on the "world wide web" since this may result in your assignment being flagged by turnitin.com & the system's AI plagiarism detection process. Discuss the relevant psychological theories and research findings that will inform your program design. Explore research with keywords relates to behavior change, motivation, parenting styles, cultural factors, environmental psychology, etc. Identify evidence-based strategies published that addresses sustainability and sustainable behaviors for children/teens, parents and families.

b. Program Design: Provide details of your psychoeducational parenting program design. Explain how your program would be delivered and evaluated. For example, will your psychoeducation program be a webinar, workshop, social media live, in person, etc.?

For the body of your program develop a detailed outline of a parenting intervention program that can provided in one session/workshop. Identify specific modules, activities, exercises and resources you would utilize in your AI driven parenting program to support sustainability. Highlight how AI may be integrated into each component of your proposed program. You are encouraged to consider interactive games, educational resources, virtual reality, facts, figures, etc.

Provide resources for parents to further research how they can continue to learn more about eco-friendly family choices. This may include your knowledge and recommendations of important non-profit organizations supporting a cause, social media influencers, who they can follow to learn more, podcasts, community resources, helpful websites, etc.

Identify the nature of habit development and ways to support habit changes for parents. Identify common human biases that could potentially affect parental receptivity to the information provided in your program and how you can present this information in a supportive, non-judgmental manner. Identify the influence of how changes in the microsystem as outlined by Bronbrenner's Ecological Systems Theory have a ripple effect on making positive changes within the context of other systems/relationships. Also refer to Prochaska as it pertains to helping your audience explore factors that can inform readiness for change for the individual, family and larger society/culture. Include other psychological theories if you would like and if they are relevant to your program.
