generativity

Part I – Do Some Research

What is generativity? Review the different theories of generativity in the textbook. Locate a few articles about generativity in the course resources and library. Next, locate an online generativity assessment, or checklist of generative characteristics/activities/qualities, and determine your approximate level.
I’ve attached a document to help you with your assessment; here is another option to help you assess your Generativity level (there are no right or wrong answers – this is just to help you see where you are when it comes to promoting or increasing Generativity within your life, family and/or social circle, etc.):

Loyola Generativity Scale (LGS)

Part II – Your PowerPoint Presentation
You will need to give your presentation to 2-3 other individuals – it can be your parent/parents, siblings, co-workers, friends, etc. You will need their input in order to respond to the reflection questions at the end.
Be sure to give yourself enough time! PPT does not have to be fancy – but be sure your slides fully respond to the information requested below.
Use and cite supportive/academic information from at least three scholarly sources. Your presentation should include the following content:
•Define generativity in your own words.
•Do a review of the text and locate some generativity theories and theorist(s) you like the most (e.g., Erikson, Logan, McAdams). Explain why you connected with one or more of these.
•Describe how socialized gender roles might contribute to generativity. Be sure to cite your source for support.
•Identify your level of generativity (include your score) and discuss the why(s).
•Discuss how your personality may or may not contribute to generative actions. Be sure to cite your source for support.
•What are you currently doing that is generative? If anything. Explain.
•Share your future career goals and how you think this might contribute to generativity. Check to see if there is research to help support your efforts and their contributions to Generativity.
•Explain other actions you can take to increase/maintain generativity throughout life. Check to see if there is research to help support your actions
•Include any other information you find relevant or beneficial regarding Generativity

Part III – your reflection
In 200-250 words (at the end of your PPT – plain slide format is ok – nothing fancy, just an honest reflection):
•How do you feel your presentation went? Were you organized? Did you feel comfortable with the content? Did you feel comfortable sharing personal information? Did you learn anything about yourself? Share any other thoughts.
•Summarize the feedback you received (e.g. what questions did they ask? Did they give you constructive feedback? Was it impactful? Were their evaluations consistent with your own?)
•Share some of your “take-aways” from your research or conversations with the individuals you presented to? Include aspects you found meaningful. Examples are encouraged.Part I – Do Some Research
