MPS612 Developmental Issues Across the Life Span
Module 8 Assignment
Signature Assignment
For your signature assignment, you are to write hypothetical case study of one person with a disability or disorder, from birth through end-of-life. The purpose of this assignment is to show your understanding of the lifespan developmental issues of someone with a disorder. Choose a different disorder than the one you covered for your case assignment. You may choose to study an individual with a disorder that develops in childhood (e.g. autism), or an individual that develops a disorder later in life. Use readings from modules 1-8 and your own research to back up your case study with facts and theoretical perspectives. Make sure to cite all of your sources.
Because everyone has individual differences, you do not need to outline every possible developmental trajectory of the disorder. This is the point of doing a case study – you need only envision the individual development of one person. It is possible that the individual you are studying does not show developmental problems in some stages. If this is the case, outline your case’s normal development for the age range. The following is a sample outline for the paper.
Section 1: Introduce the case and the disability. For example:
 This case study will describe the life of Jenny, a female of Taiwanese descent. Jenny was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) when she was four years old. According to the American Psychiatric Association (2013), ASD is a disorder
characterized by…
Jenny lives with…
Section 2: Describe the infant development (birth to 12 months) of your case, milestones met and when, and things the parents or caregivers may have noticed (or not noticed) at this stage. If applicable, include here any prenatal factors that may have influenced the child’s development.
Section 3: Describe the early childhood development (1-5 years) of your case, milestones met and when, and things the parents or caregivers may have noticed (or not noticed) at this stage.
Section 4: Describe the middle childhood development (6-12 years) of your case. For this age range, focus on issues that may develop in school, symptoms teachers may notice, interventions needed in the classroom, and/or peer relationships.
Section 5: Describe the adolescent development (13-18 years) of your case.
Section 6: Describe the adult development (19-end of life) of your case.
Section 7: Brief conclusion summarizing the main points of your case.
