Week 2 Discussion: Emotional stresses

At the end of life, there are a number of important considerations for both the dying person and his/her family. The person’s wishes for end-of-life care should be considered, for example. It is also important to examine the process of death and dying, as this too, is a developmental stage. To tackle this issue, we will examine the Kubler-Ross model of adjustment to death. You will also have an opportunity to discuss with your fellow students your thoughts about adult development and aging.

Use your module readings and the Argosy University online library resources to research the Kubler-Ross model of adjustment to death.

You need to complete both parts of this assignment.

Part I
Select a person in the news or on the Internet, or a fictional character in a book. For the selected person, use your research on the Kubler-Ross model of adjustment to death to address the following:

How did that individual adjust to death? How well did the adjustment fit the Kubler-Ross theory?
What changes would you make to the Kubler-Ross theory based on your example?
Part II
Identify one topic from this course that has changed your thinking about adult development and aging. Answer the following:

What do you know now that you did not know before?
How will you use this knowledge in your future personal or professional life?
Support your arguments with research, citing sources.

Write your initial response in a total of 1–2 paragraphs. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

By Sunday, February 2, 2014, post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area. Through Wednesday, February 5, 2014, review and comment on at least two peers’ responses.
Ask a question, remark on an analysis presented, or suggest an alternative view. Be sure to formulate a thoughtful and substantive response.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
