Step 1: Select ONE interesting, debatable topic regarding infancy development that you would like to learn more about. Do some background research to provide more insight into that topic. You may reference information from national organizations that focus on child development such as the American Academy of Pediatrics, UNICEF, etc. Below are some topics that have been debated in recent times, you may choose ONE of the following topics of your interest to discuss:
· Breastfeeding
· Vaccinations
· Circumcision
· Gender-Neutral Parenting
· Co-sleeping
Step 2: Select some interesting facts from your research. Your objective is to create an interesting visual or infographic so that an outside observer can quickly learn the pros and cons of the topic you chose.
Step 3: Your infographic must include at least two images (pictures, charts, and graphs all count as images) and informational text. Present both sides of the “debate” on your infographic (for example, the pros and cons of circumcision).
Please do not feel overwhelmed by creating an infographic. Think of it as making a “poster or flyer” about the topic. You may design the infographic on any platform you desire, such as Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Photoshop, or Canva.
Note: References and citations (in-text) are required to be in American Psychological Association (APA) format. Include your references at the bottom of the graphic.
PLEASE DO NOT COPY AND PASTE INFORMATION FROM SOURCES, THAT IS PLAGIARISM. PARAPHRASE OR SUMMARIZE INFORMATION. IF USING TURNITIN TO CHECK PLAGIARISM, BE SURE THE PERCENTAGE IS UNDER 20%.
