Combining internet research and critical thinking, you will explore key milestones and potential concerns related to the aging brain. This assignment is designed to help you demonstrate your understanding of how this essential organ changes over time. Begin by selecting any two ages you are interested in learning more about, then:

• Compare and contrast brain development and function at both ages. For example, you might look at the brain at two years old versus nine years old.
   
• Summarize the cognitive abilities and/or possible age-related effects for each group.
   

Step 1: Research

Start by gathering information on brain function and development for the two ages you’ve chosen. Use credible sources such as those found in our Online Library (opens in a new window) or through scholarly internet searches. Do not use Wikipedia. You must include information from at least two different sources and avoid relying solely on one website.

Step 2: Write

Using what you’ve learned, create a written analysis that is two to three pages long. Your document should be formatted in APA 7th gen style (12-point font, double-spaced), and your discussion must be supported with properly cited research and in-text citations. Submit your work as a Word document
