PSY 605 WEEK 6 DISCUSSION
Discussion
Solutions to Issues in Developmental
Psychology |
Prior to beginning work on this discussion, please read the
required Baltes (1987) articles for this week.
For your initial post, choose one contemporary issue or problem
related to developmental psychology that is prevalent in today's news and
research a minimum of one peer-reviewed article on this issue in the Ashford
University Library. Evaluate the issue based on one of the theoretical
perspectives (Freud’s Psychosexual Theory, Erikson’s Psychosocial Theory,
Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development, etc.) that we have studied across
this course. Explain how the theory provides a deeper understanding of the
contemporary issue. Propose one well-developed solution to address the issue or
problem.
Guided Response: Review several of your colleagues’ posts
and respond to at least two of your peers by 11:59 p.m. on Day 7 of the week.
You are encouraged to post your required replies earlier in the week to promote
more meaningful and interactive discourse in this discussion.
Were there any
contributions by your colleagues’ chosen theoretical perspective that were not
included in his or her initial post? How might these contributions have
provided more insight into the contemporary issue being considered? Critically
examine the proposed solution and reconcile any discrepancies between your
colleague’s perspective(s) and your own. Suggest a different solution than your
colleague explaining the benefits. Continue to monitor the discussion forum until
5:00 p.m. MST on Day 7 of the week and respond to anyone who replies to your
initial post.
