Your assignment may be completed in the form of a PowerPoint, Prezi, Canva, or Video presentation. The presentation should be approximately 10-12 slides long. Include the following in your multimedia presentation.
Early Adulthood:
Describe the physical changes that occur during early adulthood, including biological, hormonal, and reproductive changes.
Discuss the factors influencing physical development during early adulthood (e.g., lifestyle choices, exercise, nutrition, genetic factors).
Describe the cognitive changes that take place during early adulthood, focusing on aspects such as problem-solving abilities, decision-making skills, information processing, and moral reasoning.
Discuss the influence of education, work experiences, and personal development on cognitive functioning in early adulthood.
Middle Adulthood:
Explain the physical changes that commonly occur during middle adulthood, such as changes in sensory abilities, muscle mass, and metabolism.
Discuss the impact of lifestyle choices, including exercise and nutrition, on physical well-being during middle adulthood.
Contrast the cognitive changes observed in middle adulthood with those in early adulthood, including aspects such as memory, attention, and processing speed.
Discuss the impact of experience, expertise, and wisdom on cognitive abilities during middle adulthood.
Use two to three scholarly resources to support your explanations.
Utilize a combination of text, images, audio, and/or video to enhance the quality and effectiveness of your presentation. Include relevant graphs, charts, or diagrams to visually represent data or concepts related to physical and cognitive development. Incorporate real-life examples, case studies, or personal narratives to make the content relatable and engaging. Ensure your presentation is accessible and easily viewable by the instructor. Is submitting a video, please share an accessible link.
In addition to writing content for your slides, you must also write slide notes, called speaker notes. For each slide (except your title and references slide), your speaker notes should be containing a minimum of 100 words describing and expanding on the slide content. Information should be paraphrased and cited.
While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and documentation of sources should be presented using APA formatting guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
