******************************************************************************
Directions:For this assignment, your group will investigate a question of recurring concern related to health and wellbeing using one of the approaches presented in Module 3 & Module 4.
- Identify the selected topic/area of interest previously identified by the group, Development Disabilities.
- Form the question of recurring concern:What should be done about __Development Dissabilities_____?
- Research the recurring concern to order to further understand the nature or context of the recurring concern.For this assignment, each team member should find at least three professional resources of information that will help give insight into the problem.(This will not be a complete picture of the problem, but will give us snap-shot view.)
- Organize the ideas you’ve discovered from the professional resources by using either a multiple perspectives approach OR the ecological systems model OR life course model. Select 3 items perspectives from the list below in your assignment: different perspectives or ecological systems or the life course model.
- Write a 3-4 page paper which helps us to understand the problem.An example of this paper is also posted.The paper should include:
This question can be finalized before or after your group engages in the research. Be sure this problem fits the criteria for a recurring concern (and is not primarily a technical problem.)Criteria for recurring concerns include:
In some instances, you may want to further “narrow down” the area of interest.For example, instead of researching the broadest question “What should be done about poverty?” you may choose to narrow your focus.For example, a more focused recurring concern would be: “What should be done to meet the nutritional needs of children living in poverty?”
Resources used may include: professional journals/periodicals, internet resources, government organizations, etc.A selected list of internet resources that may be helpful are posted under “External Links” for this course.Note: Please remember that you may need to read more than three resources to find relevant and appropriate information.

Group Definition of Health and Wellbeing:Your group’s definition of health and wellbeing.Rewrite and/or further synthesize if needed.NOTE:Remember to include the reference citations you used to build this definition (i.e., cite the source within your paragraph (these are listed alphabetically) AND in the reference list at the end of the assignment).
Recurring Concern:
- The recurring concern stated in the form of a “what should be” question:
- Explanation of why this is a problem of recurring concern (based on at least three criteria given above) AND how this relates to the group’s definition of health and wellbeing (indicate “what is missing” or “the gap” that indicates the situation you have described is a needs to be addressed).(1-2 paragraphs)
Alternative Perspectives (OR) Ecological Systems (OR) Life Course Model: Research organized into perspectives OR ecological systems OR life course model. You may choose to limit this to 4-5 bullets for each perspective or model.Be sure to include the citation (author, year) in your statement.
References:List of references cited within the paper.References should be in APA format.

Group definition of Health and Wellbeing
Health and wellbeing imply a complete state of both the physical, mental and social
wellness rather than the typical notion of an absence of infirmity and disease (Rintek Madsen,
2018). This concept is derived from the world health organization definition of Health and
Wellbeing. Unlike the traditional definition of health, mental wellness encompasses an
individual upright state of mind. Having a stable state of mind is very crucial to attaining
individual wellness. On the majority of cases, health and wellbeing depend on an individual’s
nature. This is so as what a person inherits from their parents could affect their physical
wellbeing by either giving them good health or poor health. The environment in which an
individual resides in might also significantly affect individual health. Living in a non-conducive
environment can lead to poor overall health of an individual.
