Your final project will combine your research and understanding of the primary theoretical perspectives on development, your career goals as a nurse, and your personal application of the knowledge gained in this course. In this final paper, you will be expected to respond to three questions:

What is lifespan development? How can you define the progression stages of human development? (Choose one theory we’ve discussed this term and explain the different stages of development)
How is the study of lifespan development applicable to your career field? (Apply response to Question 1 based on your future career field/age group of focus – Final Project Prep 3)
How can you apply what you have learned throughout the course in your personal life?

This is a research paper and it is expected that the paper has an introduction, and at least one paragraph response to each of the three questions, and a conclusion. The paper is also required to be in proper APA format with a title page, reference page, and proper text formatting. If you have any questions or concerns regarding APA formatting, please see the attached sample paper. For detailed guidelines regarding the project, see the attached instructions.
