PSY-5703 V3: Child and Adolescent Development (0272071071)

For this week, imagine that you have been contacted by a local school to present a seminar for parents. Your seminar should be entitled,

“Promoting Positive Development: What Can a Parent Do?”

In this seminar, you will want to provide concrete tips for parents that reflect the latest research findings on promoting positive development in children OR adolescents.

Create an outline for the seminar of the topics you will cover and the tips you will provide; make sure to include information for each domain (physical, cognitive, and psychosocial) as well as theories to help parents understand their role in development. Also include information about parenting styles, and at least one activity for those in attendance to engage in that is about parenting styles (this could be an activity to determine their parenting styles; a role play that allows them to see different parenting styles respond to a specific scenario, etc).

You must also create handout(s) to give to the parents who attend your seminar. This can be a brochure, a resource guide, an annotated bibliography; whatever you believe would be most useful for parents who are looking for information on promoting development in their children.

Support your seminar with at least five references from research conducted in the past 2 years. If you cannot find recent research in the library, consider sources such as the American Psychological Association and other reliable sources. Contact the Northcentral Librarian if you need help in locating recent, reliable resources.

Length: 5-7 pages total (3-4 pages for seminar outline, 2-3 pages for the handout), not including title and reference pages

References: Include a minimum of five scholarly resources.

Your seminar and handout(s) should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts presented in the course by providing new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect graduate-level writing and APA standards. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University’s Academic Integrity Policy.

Book Janson Basic History of Western Art

Question: Identify a common subject/theme or stylistic characteristic of Baroque art and explain why you think these commonalities exist.

Respond to this Answer: Baroque art had many common themes. “Some of thequalities that characterize the Baroque are grandeur, sensual richness,emotional exuberance, tension, movement, and the successful unification of thevarious arts,” (Roberts). A few themes I found to be very common were theintensity of the darkness and light in the pictures, the drama displayed, andthe realism of the paintings. In The Calling of St. Matthew, we can see thedarkness, the movement, the realism, and the drama in this painting. I foundthat most Baroque art was displaying these themes. This was a time when changewas happening, and this art was new. The art work seems to show emotion. Youcan see in The Calling of St. Matthew that there is many things happening allthat tie back into the many themes of Baroque art. There is the difference inthe clothes, the bright light from Christ allows for the intensity of thedarkness, the is much drama and emotion shown through the expressions, andmovement shown within this painting. There is a lot happening in the paintingas well. I think that these commonalities all bring together this time periodof art. It was a more realistic time period for the art. I think that thesepieces of art show much talent to bring together all these themes. Thesepaintings seem to all tell a more detailed setting or story during this timeperiod. “The strengthened Catholic faith, the absolutist state, thenew science, and the beginnings of the modern world combined in a volatilemixture that gave the Baroque era its fascinating quality,” (Roberts).
