Part II: Create a Generativity PowerPoint
Assume you have been chosen to present the impact of generativity on life satisfaction at a Psychology convention (you will be presenting to your classmates). You will need to complete the following:
Prepare a 7-10-minute presentation on generativity. Your presentation should include some form of visual (Poster, PowerPoint, etc.). Note: Be sure to have an outline to follow
Your presentation should include:
• Define generativity in your own words.
• Some generativity theories and theorist you like the most (e.g. Erikson, Logan, McAdams)
• Describe how personality contributes to generativity
• Describe how gender roles contribute to generativity.
• Explain how/what actions you can take increase/maintain generativity.
• Include any other information you find relevant or that might benefit your classmates
• Include a Q&A segment
Part IV: Generativity Reflection/Write-Up
Reflect on this research and presentation experience in 250-500 words, including the following:
• Before you look at the survey results, how do you feel your presentation went? Were you organized? Did you feel comfortable with the content?
• Summarize your survey results and share group member feedback (e.g. was it impactful? Were their evaluations consistent with your own?)
• Did your audience ask any questions during or after your presentation? What was your comfort level in answering the questions? Where you able to answer all questions asked?
• Describe your overall experience completing this activity. Did you learn anything about yourself? Will you do anything differently? What were some of your “take-aways” from other member’s presentations? Include aspects you found meaningful. Examples are encouraged.
