Assignment:

Critical Response Presentation: Maternal Complications and
Challenges and Advocating for Family Support

Assignment Overview

This assignment asks you to demonstrate your understanding of
prenatal development and potential complications. Further, the assignment asks
you to think critically about ways that professionals can act as advocates for
parents and children who experience developmental challenges.

Deliverables

  • For
    this assignment, you will create a Power Point presentation addressing the
    following guidelines.
  • While
    you will not be creating a paper, the content should be the same as if you
    were writing a 3-4 page (750-1000 word) critical response paper.

Assignment Details

Perform the following tasks:

Step 1: Discuss potential reproductive challenges and
delivery complications that families may experience during pregnancy and
delivery (Approximately 4-6 Slides)

Drawing on knowledge gained through Lesson 3 materials, open
your paper with a discussion of reproductive challenges and delivery
complications that pregnant mothers may experience during their pregnancies and
deliveries. Consider the following questions as you construct your
presentation:

  • What
    are some potential reproductive challenges that prospective parents may
    face?
  • What
    are some complications that may occur during fetal development and
    delivery?
  • What
    are some challenges that families with new infants may face?

Step 2: Develop a detailed, advocacy-based response to one or
more of the challenges addressed in the first part of your paper.

Once you have outlined some challenges that arise in
conception, fetal development, infant delivery, and family life after delivery,
think about ways that child care professionals and community members can work
in support of families that encounter such challenges. The second part of your
project should describe advocacy strategies that work in support of parents and
infants who experience the kinds of challenges that you describe in the first
part of your project. With the specific challenges you’ve described in the
first part of your project in mind, develop the second part by considering the
following questions:

  • What
    kind of support do families that face these challenges need the most?
  • What
    roles can child care professions take on in supporting families that face
    these challenges?
  • How
    can individuals and communities work in support of families that face
    these challenges?

All advocacy strategies discussed in Step Two should
correspond to challenges discussed in Step One. You are expected to write a
supported, detailed, critical response.
