STEP 1: Select an interesting, debatable topic from this module that you would like to learn more about. Do some background research, and then find at least two reputable sources that provide more insight into that topic, preferably one for each side. You may reference information from national organizations that focus on child development (American Academy of Pediatrics, UNICEF, etc.). Here are some topics that have been debated in recent times, although you may choose your own:
breastfeeding
vaccinations
circumcision
gender-neutral parenting
co-sleeping
STEP 2: Pick out some interesting facts from your research. Think about some favorite insights, graphs, or charts. Your objective is to create an interesting visual (think: infographic) so that an outside observer could quickly learn at least three new things by looking at it. It must include at least one image (pictures, charts, and graphs all count as images) and some text. You can present both sides of the “debate” on your infographic (for example, the pros and cons of circumcision), or you can focus on one side. Include your references at the bottom of the visual or on a separate page.
Please do not feel overwhelmed by creating a visual. You can think of it as making a simplified “poster” about the topic. You may design the poster in any medium you desire, including Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Photoshop, or one of the following programs or another one option of your choice.
Canva (Links to an external site.)is really easy to use and convenient because it has tons of free shapes and designs for you to use.
Infogram (Links to an external site.) is a fabulous tool if you want to include a chart or graph in your infographic.
Easel.ly (Links to an external site.) has some great pre-designed Infographic options to work with.
OPTIONAL STEP (2 points extra credit): Share your creation with the world so that others can benefit from your work! Using either Flickr (Links to an external site.) or Wikimedia Commons (Links to an external site.), upload your finished product and publish it so that others can see and use your work. Although not required, it’s recommended to upload and release your work with a Creative Commons license (Links to an external site.).
STEP 3: Submit your presentation along with a brief reflection or explanation of why you chose the side you did.

Take your own attachment style test:
https://www.psychologytoday.com/tests/relationships/relationship-attachment-style-test (Links to an external site.) (you don’t need to pay for the deeper instructions)
Choose one or a few to respond to:
1. What insights did you have about your attachment style and relationship? (You do not need to share your results, but you can if you wish),
2. Based on the book, powerpoints, and videos discuss some suggestions you would have for parents to help build healthy attachments with their children. How would your recommendations change depending on temperament styles?
3. How do you think attachment styles as infants affect adults relationships?
Try to write a paragraph or so and respond to at least 2 other people’s.
