EDUC – 245

My favorite assignment from this class was the Three Ages Project. We interviewed three subjects: one experiencing early childhood, one experiencing late childhood, and one experiencing adolescence. The questions asked to each subject related to physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional development. We were also allowed to ask questions about a subject of our choice. My group decided to discuss moral reasoning, utilizing Kohlberg’s theory of moral development. After our individual interviews, my group compared results and shared our results with the class. Then, we had individual presentations of our findings. This project helped me achieve a deeper understanding of both the physical and mental changes that affect my future students during certain stages in their development.
