The purpose of this assignment is for you to create a character in which you will role play for all fishbowl participation activities (as the client). The character you outline in this assignment must be realistic, complex, and robust. Please take this assignment seriously, as characters developed that are too Hollywood (i.e, superheroes, soap opera, or ridiculous/obnoxious) will be returned to you with no grade and you will be required to redo the assignment. Real life is often the best inspiration. If you choose to develop a character based off of issues you have personally faced, please make sure that those issues have been properly dealt with and be protective of yourself and your mental wellbeing.
The recommended minimum length for this double-spaced paper is two (2) pages and maximum is three (3); it is expected that you properly develop the character. The use of APA format and style is strongly encouraged. Please use the following as a guide for the sections in developing your character:
General Background Information (i.e., name, age, location, occupation, job status, education)
Cultural Background (i.e., race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, SES) – please be sensitive in this area and respectful of all cultural identities. It is best practice to develop your character using your own identities for this area to avoid microaggressions and appropriations of other cultures.
Presenting Realistic Issues. This should be the largest section. While creativity is encouraged for this assignment, please keep in mind that this is a human services undergraduate class. Heavy and outlandish scenarios (i.e., murder, alien abduction, super human abilities, soap-opera narratives, paranormal issues) will not be tolerated. Here are some examples of scenarios that could be appropriate for your character:Family/Parenting issues
Relationship issues
Recovery (not active addiction) issues
Life stressors (i.e., school, occupation, moving)
Mood issues (i.e., anxiety, depression, anger)
Grief and loss
Existential issues (i.e., loss of faith, lack of purpose, identity confusion)
Societal and systemic oppression
Strengths, Supports, Weaknesses, and Risks to the character (i.e., Do they have strong family support? Do they have a stable job? Do they have good and healthy coping mechanisms?).
Expectations of a Helping Relationship (i.e., Are they resistant? Do they believe in the helping process? Past experiences with counseling/helping).
To receive full credit, all categories need to be fulfilled and your paper must be free from spelling and grammatical errors.
