Assignment:

Part 1:

A group of concerned citizens have asked you, an expert in human development, to help design a multipurpose center that will house a daycare center for young children (ages one month to four years of age) as well as a senior citizen program (ages 65 and older). Describe the center's physical environment; would you separate the two populations? Discuss some activities would you include in their weekly schedules to help stimulate the personal development of each population. Draw on a specific theory to support your decisions.

Part 2:

Gender identity has become an increasingly important topic in American society. But what is gender? And more particularly, what is the relationship between one's biological sex and one's gender identity/gender expression? In your posting, discuss whether one's gender is determined by biology or whether the two are independent of one another. What influenced the formation of gender identity, and consequently, the outward expression of gender? Please be specific. Your post should include more than just your opinion, provide examples and support your ideas with theory and research. Finally, remember to treat others with respect and be sensitive to the opinions of others.
