Improving Mental Health in Secondary Education

This project evaluates the current mental health situation for secondary students in the U.S. We analyzed vital factors contributing to high school students’ growing mental health issues. Based on our research, we present several options for improving the mental health of secondary students. The interventions and action items are broken into student-led and organizational initiatives.

Sister Sister

This following research was from a case study for EDUC 370, Adolescent Development. In the study, we looked at the lives of a set of identical twin girls named Lynn and Nicole. The purpose of the research was to measure where they landed cognitively, physically, socially, identity wise, and morally developmentally and measure where they landed next to each other as well as where statistics say they should have landed. To help measure these check points, a series of developmental tests were conducted as well as a test to see what sort of learning style each of the twins have. The twins are nine years old and are currently in the fourth grade. The presentation will discuss further the findings of the research as well as recommendations or suggests that we might have for the twins.

Kids These Days

Our presentation will examine the lives of two adolescent students, one male and one female. By comparing and contrasting the lives and experience of these two young individuals, we will assess their developmental statuses through the lens of five different domains. These domains are: cognitive, social, physical, identity, and moral/values. The methods we used to gather our data were interviews, observations, assessments and extend data. The findings for one of the adolescents, Elizabeth, suggest that she is right on course for normal development. The only improvement would be to work on her physical development by eating a healthier diet and exercising more often. The findings for the other adolescent, Diego, suggest that he is also developing in a healthy manner. The only recommendation for him would be to improve his relationship with his mother by showing her more respect. We will discuss our findings in full detail during our presentation.

Child Development

The goal of this paper was to gather information to examine 2 separate children. In this case study there are 2 different girls who are sisters with a 3 year age difference. This paper is going to examine cognitive, social, psychological, moral and physical development of both the developing adolescence. This paper will also make recommendations to help the 2 participants reach or maintain a normal healthy development stage. Data was collected using a series of methods including: Personal Interviews both with Pam( 16 years old & Beth( 13 years old) parents, siblings and 3 different people who observe these girls in there everyday life. In these observations that were conducted they were both at home and observing both girls play volleyball

Developmental Domains

This is a case study on a six year old girl whom we have collected data on by several different techniques. By observation, interviews, tests, and extant data we have been able to analyze her development in each of the five domains. We closely examined her in the developmental domains of physical, cognitive, social, moral and personal. After data collection and review it has led us to analyze her development and compare it to another case study participant.

The Case Study of Brother and Sister

This case study is on a two siblings, brother and sister. We are observing and evaluating where they are at in five different domains; cognitive development, physical development, identity development, social development, and moral development. We have been conducting interviews with the participants and their parents over the past couple of months. Also observing them in school and/or athletic activities to see how they interact with their peers. We will be showing where they are developmentally and also sharing how they affect each other’s development.

Development of a Six-year old Boy

This paper investigates five of six-year-old Cody and Carter’s developmental domains, which are cognitive, physical, social, personal, and moral development. For the purposes of this research, interviews of Cody and Carter, their families, and teachers, experiments, observations, and tests were used. All the facets of research helped to diagnose Cody and Carter’s developmental level in each domain. The research shows that Cody and Carter are developing normally in all areas. For a continued normal development minor suggestions had been made in each developmental domain.

Child Development Case Study

The reason for this research-based project is to evaluate a child developmentally in comparison to other children their age. The student will be evaluated to see if they are progressing normally according to the educational research of psychologists like Piaget, Marcia, Bandura, and others. Over a month, data was gathered from the subjects of this research project, third-grade boy and girl twins who are referred to as James and Rosie. Data was collected in cognitive, physical, personal, identity, and moral categories and will be compared to data collected by education researchers. Evaluations and recommendations will be made based upon the twins’ progress. It appears that James and Rosie are developing normally.

5 year old Case Study-Observing Development

This paper aims to provide insight on the maturation of children during the pre-operational stage of development. This is a case study of a five year old boy who I have seen grow throughout his life from my viewpoint as his baby-sitter and tutor. The factors of development discussed in this paper are; cognitive, physical, identity, social, and moral. This case study takes a closer look at how we develop, and poses a few ponderable reasons why we grow to be how we are.

The Study of Adolescent Learners and How They Develop

Our project is going to talk about adolescent learners and their development in several categories: cognitive, physical, identity, social, moral, and values. Cognitively we will talk about their development based on Piaget along with what their learning style’s are. We will address their physical development by studying body mass indexes (BMIs). This study will cover three specific individuals we studied but will also include general terms for adolescents in the K-12 spectrum.

Developmental Case Study of Three Elementary Age Children

The purpose of this project is to study the developmental stages of a 7-year old male subject who resides in a middle to upper class home in the Springfield area. Over the course of two months, interviews, observations, games, and cognitive tests were conducted to gather information in order to compare his developmental process according to cognitive psychologist Jean Piaget’s developmental stages. The developmental stages observed and recorded were Cognitive Development, Physical Development, Self Concept and Self Esteem, Social Development, and Values and Moral Development. Upon examination of all areas and careful analysis of text information, it was noted that case subject is developing normally to slightly above his age level.
