Reflection Paper (750-1000 words)

The purpose of this paper is to encourage you to think about key developmental issues that impact someone outside of your own identity group. In addition, you are to examine how external forces may impact the lives of others at different stages of the lifespan. For example, you may choose to interview someone from a different developmental stage than yourself to test different theories that you have learned about from class or you may choose to interview someone who is from a different racial, ethnic, sexual orientation, religious, ability, etc. background than your own. Once you have gathered your information on your topic, apply it to the theories discussed in your book and in class.
