Assignment 1: Final Project Theory and Topic Selection
This week, you will finalize your theory and topic selection for your Final Project Assignment.
To Prepare:
- Think about the final project topic you selected in Week 1.
- Select two theories you will address in your final project.
- When selecting two theories, consider whether each theory could:
- explain the origins and development of your topic
- be used to develop strategies or programs to benefit human development relevant to your topic
- address cultural differences or diversity considerations relevant to your topic
- meet the characteristics of a good theory relevant to your topic
- Keep in mind that the theories you select might not meet all these criteria; you will discuss the strengths and limitations of the theories as part of your final project.
