During this section of the course, we’ve focused on technology use and recommendations for well-being for children in the following age groups: early childhood (birth to age 5), middle childhood (age 5-12), and adolescence (age 12-18). We’ve addressed how these groups vary developmentally across four developmental domains, which we also discussed at length in class, and how their use of technology can have specific and differential effects on that development. In the space below, select 2 age groups. (1 point) Identify 2 developmental domains. You will use these for comparison. (2 points) Identify 2 types of technology from these choices: iPad, computer, texting, social media, online gaming. You will use these for comparison. Discuss the possible impact on each developmental domain. Impact of the technology use should clearly indicate your understanding of development in that age group. (4 points) You may copy and paste the text below to structure your answer. Age group 1: Age group 2: ———————————— Developmental Domain 1: Developmental Domain 2: ———————————— Technology 1: Technology 2: ———————————— How does [Technology 1] impact [Developmental Domain 1] for [Age group 1]? Ex: Technology impacts __ development for Age group because ____. How does [Technology 1] impact [Developmental Domain 1] for [Age group 2]? How does [Technology 2] impact [Developmental Domain 2] for [Age group 1]? How does [Technology 2] impact [Developmental Domain 2] for [Age group 2]?

Greetings! This is an assessment of your knowledge and application of the content from modules 5 through 8. As would be the practice in the physical classroom, please DO NOT use any outside/additional material windows or devices while taking this test. Please close all other tabs in your browser (except when opening Zoom if you need it; see below). The exam may take a minute to load. Please don’t worry. Question 1 is a 0 point item allowing you to indicate that you are not/have not used additional material during the exam. Questions 2-20 are multiple choice and true/false. Note that for question 20, there are 6 options. You choose 3. Then, in the response box, indicate the option by letter (A, B, etc), indicate True or False, and then a BRIEF explanation of your answer. Items 21-24 are short answers, with variable points bringing the exam total to 50. There are 2 extra credit questions at the end. As before all extra credit questions indicate that they are worth 0 points, this is so the point total on the exam isn’t changed from 50. The items will be scored and the extra points will show in a separate column in the grade book (Exam 2 Extra Credit). Read each question carefully and answer as completely as possible. You can return to any question before hitting ‘submit’ at the end of the exam if you’d like to revisit your answers. You will have 90 minutes to complete the exam.
