Homework: Human Development Paper

Overview

Description: This homework requires you to think critically about theories and issues in human development.

Purpose: A temptation in studying human development is to neglect the hard work of critical thinking-challenging underlying assumptions of theories, integrating theories, comparing/contrasting theories, etc. This homework will allow you to practice critical thinking in the context of theories in human development.

Instructions

Details:

I. There is considerable flexibility in this paper. The main criterion is that it must demonstrate critical thinking in a coherent argument related to course material.

II. Some options include:

i. Critiquing concepts or underlying principles of a theory covered so far.
ii. Integrating theories covered to date.
iii. Challenging assumptions of a theory that has been discussed.
iv. Comparing/contrasting theories that have been covered.
v. Discussing strengths/limitations of a theory that has been explored.

III. This paper is NOT a summary of a theory. This paper IS a demonstration of your understanding of a theoretical approach/issue through critical analysis.

IV. The instructor will not proofread papers, but it is acceptable for a friend to proofread for clarity, grammar, and spelling. In addition, the Liberty University OnlineWriting Center can help with overall writing and flow.
