Please use the Life Map to create a narrative that articulates your development from a life course perspective and incorporate various developmental theories. The paper must include a discussion of life changing events (use textbook terms such as life events, turning point, and trajectory), at least 2 developmental theories (major developmental theories include Erikson's Theory of Psychosocial Development, Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development, Bowlby's Theory of Attachment, and Kohlberg's Theory of Moral Development). Fowler's theory of spiritual/faith development must also be included. The textbook and 3 additional peer reviewed sources* should be cited, for a minimum of 4 scholarly sources.
The paper should begin with an introduction (age, sex, marital status, pets, employment, etc.), followed by organizational headings to include: Life Changing Events (any specific events or milestones that changed the trajectory of your life), Application of Developmental Theories (discuss and apply at least 2 theories), Spiritual Developmental (discuss Fowler's theory and the development of your personal faith), and As a Social Worker (discuss how your personal development impacted or informed your desire for social work). In the introduction, please discuss why it is important for social workers to be aware of their own development.
If scripture is used in your paper, it should be properly cited and referenced. Please follow the instructions carefully, use the template provided, and use current APA format. Need Assignment Help?
