Research Paper, Psychology
Project description
Intervention Plan<br />
Students are asked to read several of the research presentations and respond to ONE of them by creating a lesson plan or plan for intervention to assist individuals with the problems described in the research presentation. For example, if the presentation concerns adolescent identity in the face of parental divorce, create a plan for intervention or treatment to help those adolescents that is based on the conclusions of the research presentation. If the presentation concerns caregivers’ health problems in the face of a family member with Alzheimer’s, create a plan for intervention or treatment to help those caregivers that is based on the results of the studies summarized in the presentation. If the presentation concerns college student grades in the face of extracurricular involvement in athletics, create a lesson plan or intervention plan to help college students that is based on the results of the studies. If the presentation concerns the effects of silent reading on middle schoolers’ comprehension skills, create a lesson plan to help middle schoolers that is based on the results of the studies. Explain how your intervention is linked to the results of your classmate’s presentation. Please create your OWN intervention–do not borrow one used in your school district or found in another study. Think CREATIVELY about what you might do, why it should work, and exactly how you would implement it. Think through the steps of implementation.<br />
The plan should identify a target audience, and a target frame of duration, and contain an objective, a summary of skills to be developed, and specific techniques for reaching the objective and developing the skills. Be sure to identify the research presentation that you are responding to and explain how your intervention addresses issues found in your classmate’s research presentation. Attach the rubric (available under the purple button “Course Documents”) to the end of your plan. <br />
The plan will be evaluated according to the Intervention Plan rubric under Course Documents and is worth 7% of your course grade. Please send the plan to me as an email attachment with the rubric copied into the last page no later than the date listed in the Calendar. <br />
