Family Life Education:

Family Life Education (FLE) Project Part 1: Literature Research Summary and Reference List

150 points

The purpose of this review of literature and professional/academic sources is to learn about a topic in order to prepare a Family Life Education Project presentation.

1. Select a topic appropriate for a Family Life Education Project. Topics should be related to children and families. Submit topic choice(s) for approval. Following the approval process, begin researching your topic.

2. Prepare a bibliography of eight professional/academic sources, written in APA format. Acceptable sources include: professional/academic journals, books, professional/academic websites, popular press (limit of 1 popular press source). You can supplement your project with any of the material in the “Resources” module.

3. In the introductory paragraph, identify and describe the intended audience with whom you plan to share the information you gather during the literature review. This is a crucial step in the preparation of your project as your audience drives your topic and your research-focus.

4. Begin with a brief description of the topic. However, the major portion of the paper describes research and practice from professional/academic sources, using in-text citations in APA format. A bibliography is included. Papers should be 5-8 pages in length, excluding bibliography.

5. Note the rubric used in evaluating this assignment: Family Life Education Project – Part 1 Evaluation Rubric, 100 points

 comply with specified length range of assigned papers (edit appropriately).

Evaluation will be based, in part, on the appearance of the work including structural, grammatical and typographical errors. APA format is required for references and citations. Academic and professional style and quality of writing is required.

My Mother’s Side

https://geniusproessays.com/

My Mother’s Side:

I would like for you to look at your past and your family members and think about which half of your family is closest to their ethnic roots (MY MOTHER’S SIDE). Once decided you can start down the road of discovery.

Research the reasoning and ideas that are part of that ethnic or racial or religious group that you identify with (MEXICAN-AMERICAN AND CATHOLIC 22 YEAR OLD WOMAN) to give the reader of your work an idea why, where or when some of these customs began and possible rationales for them (FROM MY MEXICAN CATHOLIC FAMILY). This work should portray your experiences along with the group that you identify with, and the comfort level and possible deviation to that grand scheme you or your family has experienced, when dealing with death or dying.

Your work should:

  • be three (3) pages (excluding the title, abstract and reference pages)
  • be typed according to APA style for margins, formatting and spacing standards
  • have at least three sources of which at least two are from peer reviewed journals
  • be typed into a Microsoft Word document, save the file, and then upload the file

Activity: Additional Questions for Self-awareness Exercise

 

My Life History of Death: A Timeline

 

This activity can be a tool for further exploration of the personal attitudes you hold toward death. It might also be useful in (a) identifying your personal issues surrounding unresolved grief, and (b) examining your own pattern of grieving. Take a moment to recall the earlier activity, My First Recollection of Death. Next, look at the timeline that appears in this activity. At either end of the timeline, fill in your date of birth and the current date. Then make a series of vertical lines across it for each death that affected you and write the name of who or what died in chronological order. Ask yourself the list of questions in turn for each death and write down your answers on a separate piece of paper.

 

Date of Birth: _ 01/25/00 | Current Date: _ 9/18/22

 

· How did you feel? I felt devastated and hopeless when my grandfather passed away.

· How did you act? I acted strong and supportive for my family.

· How did other people seem to feel? Other people felt sad too.

· How did others act? They acted sad and cried and hugged a lot.

· How did members of your family react to the death? My family members’ reaction to the death was full of surprise.

 

Look at your timeline. Think about your personal pattern of feeling and acting in response to significant deaths in your life.

 

Do you feel that your pattern was a healthy one?

NO ______, YES ______. If no, explain.

 

 

Did the pattern of feeling and acting change over time?

NO ______, YES __ ____. If yes, explain.

Yes, over time my family and I came to accept the death. We were still sad but found peace in reminiscing about all the good times.

 

Considering the deaths you identified on your timeline, do you experience any unresolved grief reactions to them at the current time? NO __ ____, YES ______. If yes, explain.
