Observation Paper Instructions

For this assignment, you will observe a child under the age of 10 in a natural setting for 30 minutes to 1 hour, writing down your observations. Note: you may observe your own child. As you make your observations, be on the look out for physical, cognitive and psychosocial development.

After making your observations, prepare and submit a paper describing your observations and connecting those obserations with course content and scholarly research. An additional section on the connection between Ecclesiastes 3:1 and child development will also be included in the paper.

The paper will include a title page, a 4 – 5 -page body, and a reference page, all in APA format.

Each section in the summary of your observation must include vocabulary, concepts and theories discussed throughout the course. Be sure to include specific examples in each section. For example, related to cognitive development you might use the following example: A child bumps into a piece of furniture and calls it the “mean couch”. This would be related to the concept of animism with a child in Piaget’s preoperational stage of cognitive development.

It is important to support your observations with scholarly research. Using the LUO Library, you will need to find 4 scholarly, peer-reviewed journal articles to support your findings and observations. Be sure to include in-text citations in your summary.

In addition to the 3 required examples, you need a paragraph describing how a Christian worldview relates to your specific observations. This MUST include a reflection of Ecclesiastes 3:1 and how this Scripture relates to child development.

For this assignment you may use first person. Be sure to use headings throughout the paper.

The paper must include the following components:

· Title page in proper current APA format

· Introduction

· Summary of your observation

o Physical development

o Cognitive development

o Psychosocial development

· Relationship between Ecclesiastes 3:1 and child development

· A strong conclusion which includes a summary of the main points of your paper.

· Reference page in proper current APA formatting

Be sure to review the grading rubric for this assignment.

This assignment must include a current APA-formatted title page and reference page.

  • M-Z, argue against using grades (i.e. argue against grades and in favor of using other forms of evaluation)

Grades restrict student’s progress.  Because students strive so hard to obtain a good grade the point of the assignment is sometimes missed.  Students also lose their creativity when worried about doing anything that might go outside of the grading criteria.  This limits their abilities because they want the A more than they want to actually learn.  Grades also put a lot of stress on the student to do well.  Some parents even go as far as to reprimand students for not making the grade which adds to their stress.  Grades also decide whether a student gets into a good college or how successful they will be in life.  Grades also put a label on students.  Some are the straight A students while others are failures.  no student should have to live with such labels.  Grades should not be based on a test or quiz.  They should be based on the effort put forth by the student.  Rather than having letter grades there should be number grades that factor in effort, creativity, collaboration and other necessary skills that a student needs to be successful.  Grades all create a negative impact on the student-teacher relationship because students sometimes resent teachers for giving them a poor grade.  Grades also take up a lot of the teacher’s time which could be spend doing more productive things like working with students to improve learning outcomes.  Grades can also keep students from earning awards or scholarships.  According to     While this suggests that there may be no departmental impact of earning a C instead of a B, grades are also considered for eligibility for scholarships and other organizations at LSRU.  A grade of C often precludes participation in these activities” (p.8).  A bad grade can have a huge impact on a student’s life.  If students received number grades that actually supported the amount of effort a student was putting into an assignment, it could have a more positive and significant impact on the student’s life.
