****this assignment has 2 parts a powerpoint 1 slide and an infographic (1 page) ***

PART 1
First Step: Determine your audience
You get to determine who I am as a student. (e.g. I can be a 2 y/o in your pre-school class, a 13 y/o in your 8th grade class, a college student, an 8 y/o old student with with autism, etc….you get to create my student profile). Be detailed! 10pts
Second Step: Determine your content
You decide what you would like for me to learn (e.g. maybe you want me to know multiplication tables, or how to interact with diverse students, or ways to understand the branches of government, or a topic you have learned in this class…you pick). 15pts
Third Step: Determine your instructional method
You determine how I might best learn what you hope to teach me based on what you now know about how I learn. This means you will likely consider:
-developmental considerations (each chapter had a nice chart with developmental trends that should be helpful)
-theoretical approaches (e.g. Piaget, Vygotsky, Erikson, Kholberg)
-instructional strategies & approach
Explain your thought process behind the instructional method you select and what factors you took in to consideration. 25pts
PART 2
Part Two of your Final Assessment will give you a chance to highlight something you learned by creating your own infographic. You can choose to highlight a particular chapter, you could choose one topic we covered that is of interest, or a combination of topics/chapters.
Infographics are visual representations of information. They can include numbers, text, images, or any combination of the three. Infographics provide authors with a quick way to convey a lot of information and readers with a quick way (and engaging) way to consume the information.

Use the Literacy-Rich Environments Checklist, linked above, as you search around the internet for many pictures of preschool classrooms (or even preschool outdoor spaces). Check off the boxes in the checklist or just keep notes as you find or don’t find items.

The Role of Developmental Research in Understanding the 6 Major Themes of Development: A Review in the Context of Motor Development
Choose a particular topic area from the class or textbook (e.g., motor development) and review how research on it relates to the 6 major themes of development that have been described throughout the course (detailed in the 2nd class lecture, in particular):
1. Nature vs Nurture
2. The Active Child
3. Continuity vs. Discontinuity
4. Mechanism of developmental change
5. Sociocultural context
6. Individual differences
Describe how research in your chosen area exemplifies each theme. For example, if you chose the development of personality/temperament, you would describe how the research relates to the Nature/Nurture theme by describing studies showing that some traits like aggression can be inherited from your parents (and so on for each of the 6 themes).
This is not intended to be a research paper. In theory, you could write this paper only having read the textbook and attending class, however, you can include any outside material that interests you and adds to your argument.
*Please be sure to cite any sources you use and be extra careful to use only your own words. Include a bibliography for anything you cite. Any incidents of plagiarism will result in a zero on the assignment and a charge filed with the academic honesty board that could result in an ‘F’ in the class.
*This paper should be between 8-10 double spaced pages (not including an optional reference page).
*Please include separate section headings for each of the 6 themes.
