lifespan development
View the TedTalk video (link provided in the Lesson 1 folder). Your initial (main) post should be at least 300 words but no more than 350 and must substantively integrate information from the Ted Talk video {scroll up}, the textbook readings, and at least one outside source. We have all seen the video so do not write a long summary of it. Rather, choose a topic related to the video and research it. In addition to the research, you may include opinion in your posting but your views must be supported (such as by the research). Outside sources should be found through a search on Google Scholar or a GTC Library approved search engine. You may use more than one outside source but one must be scholarly and the others should similarly be relevant to the discussion. For any outside source, students are required to use proper APA (http://www.apastyle.org/) style formatting only for in-text citations and reference section. In other words, a cover page, abstract, etc are not required. For assistance with APA style formatting, visit the GTC Library or its website https://gtclibrary.libguides.com/Home Another good resource for APA citation: https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/apa_sample_paper.html
