Examine the interdisciplinary nature of   gerontology

In   this assignment, you will examine the interdisciplinary nature of   gerontology. This assignment has three parts:

Part   1: You   will identify a specific topic in aging use databases to create a table   that: 

· represents three different perspectives   (e.g. psychological, sociological, economic, political, legal,   anthropological, medical, etc.)

· identifies research articles about your   topic that represent each perspective (at least 2 for each perspective)

· identifies the important findings of each   study

Part   2: You   will also present a one page summary that compares and contrasts the three   perspectives as they relate to your topic. Your table and summary will be   shared with your classmates in Week 7. Be sure to include a reference list!

Part   3: Post   your completed table and summary to the Week 7 discussion area as well as to   the Assignments folder. You are expected to review the summaries of at least   two other students as part of your weekly discussion participation.

Remember   that you must also post your assignment to the discussion thread posted in   Week 7 so that your table will be visible to the entire class. The discussion   thread is marked with the icon that looks like a word cloud.
