Part 1: Creating a Research Question: The quality of research often depends on the quality of the question driving it. Understanding how personal opinions, perspectives, and historical sources play a part in developing and examining a research question is essential. Complete the following steps to discuss how you developed a robust research question about your chosen historical event.
Describe how your assumptions, beliefs, and values influenced your choice of topic.
How might your perspectives and opinions impact your chosen topic, and how may you approach studying it?
Discuss the significance of your historical research question concerning your current event.
State your historical research question and explain the connection between your current event and your question.
Explain how you used sources to finalize your research question.
Identify the specific primary and secondary sources you used.
Discuss how evidence in these primary and secondary sources strengthened or challenged the focus of your question.
Part 2: Building Context to Address Questions: In this part of the project, you will examine the historical context of your historical event. The context will be like snapshots that capture what was happening in history that affected the development of your current event.
Describe the context of your historical event that influenced your current event.
How does the context of your historical event help tell the story of what was happening at the time? How might this historical event connect or lead to your current event?
Describe a historical figure or group’s participation in your historical event.
This person or people must have directly participated in the event you identified as it was happening, not after it.
Use specific details from your primary and secondary sources to demonstrate how the person or people participated in the event.
Explain the historical figure or group’s motivation to participate in your historical event.
Consider why the person or people were motivated to get involved in the event.
Part 3: Examining How Bias Impacts Narrative: Narrative is how people tell stories based on their assumptions, beliefs, and values. From a historical perspective, narratives influence who we focus on, what we focus on, and how we discuss events and issues in the past and present. Complete the following steps to explore how the stories about your current event and the historical events leading to it have been told.
Describe a narrative you identified while researching the history of your historical event.
There can be multiple narratives depending on your sources. Pick one or two that you feel have been the most influential.
Articulate how biased perspectives presented in primary and secondary sources influence what is known or unknown about history.
How do potentially biased sources influence knowledge of your historical and current events?
Support your stance with examples from your primary and secondary sources.
Identify the perspectives you think are missing from your historical event’s narrative.
Whose stories were not recorded? Whose voices were ignored or silenced?
Part 4: Connecting the Past With the Present: Consider how the work you have done to develop your research question and investigate it can be used to explain connections between the past and present. Complete the following steps to discuss the value of developing historical inquiry skills.
Researching its historical roots helped improve your understanding of your current event.
How did examining your current event from a historical perspective help you better comprehend its origins?
Articulate how questioning your assumptions, beliefs, and values may benefit you as an individual.
Why is it valuable to know your assumptions, beliefs, and values when encountering personal, academic, and professional information?
Discuss how being a more historically informed citizen may help you understand contemporary issues.
Consider how knowing history could influence how you approach current challenges or questions.

PSY211 - 2-2 Module one milestone six dimensions of wellness
When we refer to the Module One Milestone assignment, there’s no doubt that the contrast between Jan’s and Judi’s lives seems dramatic. However, although we might feel some degree of sadness for Judi and her daughter, there is still hope that they can rise above the challenges and lead more adaptive lives. Despite the unknowns, one thing is certain: Jan’s story paints a very bright picture of what we can do to bridge the gap between our biological (nature) and psychosocial (nurture) outcomes.
Explore how you apply a growth mindset when considering yourself and the nature versus nurture debate. How much agency do you have over your life? How do emotional intelligence and resilience factors affect your well-being?
After reviewing the article “Six Dimensions of Wellness,” answer each question in the Module.
Choose one of the wellness dimensions and explain whether you feel it is guided more by nature or nurture. Explain your response.
Explain how one dimension of wellness influences cognitive well-being during a specific stage of development.
Identify the wellness dimension that you feel most in control of.
Identify the wellness dimension that you feel least in control of.
Choose one dimension that you believe to be predominant in development.
Explain how emotional intelligence and resilience factors affect your well-being.
Consider how you can apply the dimensions of wellness to support your own well-being in your response.

PSY211 - 3-2 module Activity: Activity journal
Although their self-awareness is limited, newborns demonstrate some degree of it; this can be observed in the rooting response and what triggers it. From their earliest moments of life, newborns learn that their own crying may result in the attention of a caretaker on a continuous, interval, or ratio reinforcement schedule. This conditioning process, which involves a stimulus and a response, represents the fundamental basis of classical conditioning. Likewise, small children may get teased by their classmates or scolded by a teacher for picking their noses, causing them to refrain from engaging in the behavior in front of others. This associative learning process, or operant conditioning, continues throughout the life span.
These scenarios suggest that our self-awareness and self-regulation have social origins, which are influenced by our environment and experiences. Self-awareness, understanding what affects our behaviors, enables us not only to build upon our strengths, but to identify opportunities to improve upon those strengths. Self-regulation, the ability to control our emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, enables us to learn new behaviors and change existing ones. Recall that both self-awareness and self-regulation are elements of emotional intelligence (EI).
Describe a specific behavior that you learned in response to an external stimulus.
What external stimulus affected your behavior?
Were you aware that your behavior was being influenced by the stimulus? If so, how did you know?
Explain whether the conditioned behavior was positive or negative.
If positive, in what ways can you continue to reinforce this behavior?
If negative, what are some steps you can take to change this behavior?
Describe a specific behavior that you changed in response to an external stimulus.
What external stimulus affected your behavior?
Were you aware that your behavior was being influenced by the stimulus? If so, how did you know?
Explain whether the change in behavior was positive or negative.
If positive, in what ways can you continue to reinforce this behavior?
If negative, and if it is something that you would like to change again, what are some steps you can take to change this behavior?
Explain why one of the behaviors described above is an example of classical conditioning (Watson), operant conditioning (Skinner), or neither of these. Address the following in your response:
If one of the above types of conditioning applies to your example, which specific features helped you to identify it?
Explain why this type of conditioning is most effective in learning or changing this behavior.
If neither type of conditioning applies to the behavior, why is this the case? Explain your response in terms of specific conditioning features (e.g., stimulus, response, association) or inherent aspects of the behavior itself.

PSY211 - 1-2 Module one milestone case study analysis
Jan and Judi are identical twins who, tragically, were separated at birth after an administrative mishap in the hospital where they were born. After an ironic series of events that led to their reunion later in life, the twins’ story raises questions about the power of nature and nurture on human development.
Jan was raised in a warm, loving environment where her identity was allowed to flourish in authentic ways. Jan describes her parents as very emotionally supportive, constantly providing her with positive reinforcement, which she believes has significantly contributed to her high level of self-confidence. After three years as the president of the debate team and after graduating from high school with high honors, Jan eventually went on to a successful law career. Jan has always maintained productive, healthy relationships with those in her personal and professional circles—social bonds that she has cultivated over the course of many decades. As a pillar of her community, Jan strives to help others in need through volunteering and advocacy. Jan married her childhood sweetheart and raised two very successful children (both lawyers). Now in her early 50s, Jan feels blessed for her good fortune in life.
Sadly, Judi has not been as fortunate as her twin sister. She was raised in an emotionally chaotic environment; her father was an angry, abusive alcoholic, while her mother was anxious, depressed, and emotionally codependent. Since narrowly meeting the requirements to graduate from high school, Judi has been unsuccessful in her efforts to obtain and sustain gainful employment. Beginning in her teens, Judi found herself in psychologically abusive situations with significant others that resulted in severe emotional distress. Judi also states that she has very few friends. Throughout her life, Judi claims to have experienced paranoia, hallucinations, and severe depression and anxiety that have led her to abuse alcohol and drugs. Like her sister, Judi had two children with past partners; tragically, one teenage child died from addiction, while the other, nine-year-old Jamie, is prone to angry outbursts and struggles with severe ADHD, anxiety, and depression. Now in her early 50s, Judi feels hopeless, helpless and full of despair.
Compare the psychological factors, and social factors, and Explain whether nature or nurture had a more significant role in Jan’s and Judi’s development.

Procrastination
A related concept, procrastination, involves putting off a task that you know you need to do but have a difficult time getting motivated to do. You watch a humorous video about procrastination that causes you to wonder what psychologists might say about it. You consider how procrastination might influence your efforts toward achieving goals. You also recall a friend who struggles with procrastination and believe that you can help this person to reframe procrastination in a more adaptive way to build resilience. In your journal entry, you organize your thoughts to share some words of encouragement with your friend. This milestone will prepare you to complete Project Two at the end of Module Seven, in which you’ll relate coping, grit, personality, and motivation to achieving one of your own major goals.
