Your assignment is to write a paper that discusses your journey through one (and only one!) of Erikson's stages. This paper is meant to be introspective and thoughtful. A few possible things to discuss include: What did you go through? How did you feel about what was happening then? How do you feel about it now? How do you feel about the outcome? How has it affected you? You may discuss this however you see fit, the above are only suggestions. If you are using one of the extra credit papers, it might drive your paper a certain way that makes the above suggestions difficult for you to use. That is fine; these are just thoughts to get you going.
