Personal Development Paper – Worth 12%
This is a reflection in regard to your own thoughts and feelings in regard to your own personal development from birth till present time. There could also be a focus on a specific time in your life. You may also want to compare and contrast how you think differently in your current stage of development compared to the past or how you feel you might think in the future. Example: If you were to focus on adolescence, you could write about your first experiences with peer pressure as opposed to how you feel now in regard to peer pressure. The topics to be chosen are wide and vast but make sure your thoughts and ideas arrive in a clear concise manner. Your paper should relate to material from the class and text.
The paper should be Font 12, 800 to 1000 words in length and should contain a beginning/introduction, a middle development and an end/conclusion.
