Your task for this assignment is to write a paper in which you apply developmental science to solve a real-world problem facing children and families. This paper builds off of the work you did on the preparation paper.
>>>Many parents struggle with how to manage their children’s behavior (e.g., not listening, whining, talking back, not following rules, etc.) How can parents address this challenge? >>>
Paper should include:
APA-style Title page
Introduction (that includes a description of the problem and eases the reader into the paper)
Proposed solution (that explains how exactly the problem could be solved – be specific on action steps to take!)
Evidence-based argument for your proposal, including at least four paragraphs (three articulating theories/research findings/concepts from at least three different chapters and one articulating how evidence from a peer-reviewed, empirical article supports the proposed solution)
Conclusion
APA-style References Page
The concept I would suggest to a parent struggling with difficult behaviors, would be to reach out to their wider set of supporters, namely their micro (co-parents/teachers/peers/school/neighborhood/work members) and mesosystems (the relationship between the microsystems and the child i.e.: what is happening at school could be influenced by what is happening at home) in terms of ecological theory as proposed by Urie Bronfenbrenner.

7.5 pts
Adequate

This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeIntroduction
10 pts
Outstanding
Gradually eases the reader into the topic of the paper using a scientific and objective tone; clearly states to the reader what the problem to be solved is and why this problem was selected.
8.5 pts
Good
Mostly meets criteria for outstanding, but reader is left with a few questions about the purpose of the paper.
7.5 pts
Adequate
Eases the reader into the topic of the paper but may be too abrupt (jumping into content too quickly) or tone may not be consistently objective/scientific; states the problem that will be addressed but rationale for why it was selected is not presented in a way that is fully clear to the reader.
6 pts
Needs Improvement
Contains problems with one or more of the following: Jumps into the content of paper without giving any kind of gradual lead in; tone is casual throughout; the problem to be addressed is stated but the explanation for why it was selected is very superficial or rationale is very difficult to follow.

This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeProposed Solution
10 pts
Outstanding
Describes a solution to the problem with sufficient detail for the reader to be able to implement the solution. The solution proposed clearly follows from developmental science principles that were discussed in class; the solution demonstrates a deep level of understanding of developmental principles.
8.5 pts
Good
Mostly meets criteria for outstanding, but reader is left with a few questions about the proposed solution.
7.5 pts
Adequate
A solution is presented but the description of the solution is not fully complete (such that the reader would need to ask clarification questions in order to implement the solution); the solution is technically an accurate way to address the problem but is somewhat superficial – failing to show a deep level of reflection on the course content
6 pts
Needs Improvement
Description of solution is very vague or the proposed solution only superficially addresses the problem.

This criterion is linked to a Learning OutcomeEvidence for Solution from Textbook #1
10 pts
Outstanding
Provides an evidence-based argument for why the solution should be implemented to solve the problem based on one piece of evidence from the textbook. The theory/research finding/concept is clearly summarized and the author articulates how that evidence provides support for the solution.
8.5 pts
Good
Mostly meets criteria for outstanding, but reader is left with a few minor questions about the evidence and/or how it supports the proposal.
7.5 pts
Adequate
Provides an evidence-based argument in support of the solution based on one piece of evidence from the textbook. However the argument is somewhat superficial; this may be due to the summary of the theory/concept/research finding being only vaguely or superficially described and/or the link between the evidence and the proposed solution not being fully articulated.

Response is highly vague or superficial.
