Question: Imagine you are a professional with expertise in prenatal and postnatal development. You have been invited to address an audience of parents and fellow professionals on a selected issue.

An agency to support teen mothers in an urban, low socioeconomic status (SES) area has requested that you provide a presentation on postpartum maternal depression to their support staff. The group is interested in knowing more about how postpartum maternal depression affects early postnatal attachment in particular. The group is also interested in suggestions for empirically supported interventions prevention strategies for their population.
Premature birth: The impact on parenting practices. Nurses working in a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) have seen an increase in premature births in African American women. They have invited you to talk about common challenges related to preterm births among this population and how those challenges affect pre- and postnatal parenting practices. The group also seeks empirically supported intervention or prevention suggestions for a NICU setting.
Hospital births versus home births: The impact on birth outcomes. Through a local hospital, a group of expectant mothers in an affluent area has requested a presentation on hospital versus home births. They want to better understand the risks and benefits of each for both the mother and infant, including best-practice suggestions to promote positive outcomes. Deliverables Your assessment is divided into two parts:
Part 1: Research Analysis Identify the scenario you have chosen and develop a 5-7 page analysis on your selected topic, supporting your ideas with current scholarly research that fully explores the topic. This analysis will provide the basis for you to explain the impact of the issue on the infant, family, and society.
Include: An examination of how the specific issue affects cognitive, social, emotional, or physical development in early childhood and beyond. An analysis of major theories or recent research related to a selected topic that considers the influence of biology and the environment, health, education, and individual and cultural influences on development. An application of child development theory and research in recommending appropriate responses or interventions to an infant''s evolving needs in school, home, and community while considering unique cultural factors relevant in those contexts.
Part 2: Presentation Speaker''s Notes Drawing on your research in Part 1, prepare two pages of speaker''s notes for the presentation directed at an audience of professionals and parents in which you: Describe the topic of the presentation and its significance to the audience. Analyze the impact of the issue on the infant, family, and society while considering individual and cultural differences and any potential health disparities. Recommend best practices for the health of newborns or infants. Type the presentation on two double-spaced pages. This does not need APA in-text referencing, but you can refer to important scholarly sources that support your ideas. Remember to consider the level of understanding the audience may have on the topic so that you avoid jargon or provide clarification. This presentation needs to have objective support, but, as a presentation, it can be in more informal first-person language.
