HUSS125 – Family Theory and Services Week 2 – CAT This assessment is worth 10% of your final grade. Deadline Due by the end of Week 2 at 11:59 pm, ET. Outcomes Completing this Assessment will help you to meet the following: Course Outcome  Analyze the historical to contemporary theoretical evolution of family and relationship theories. Directions This week you will complete a timeline and a corresponding narrative of at least 500 words in length. This timeline and narrative will be used to analyze how theories pertaining to families and relationships have changed over time. In completing the timeline and accompanying narrative, the information and links provided in the Week 2 lecture will be particularly helpful. You may also conduct your own research using outside scholarly sources if you wish. Make sure to cite any references used. To begin, fill in the timeline template provided in Appendix A of this document (starting on page 5). Bullet points are included in the template to help you organize your thoughts. Each row of the timeline represents a different theory or theorist important in explaining family and relationship dynamics. Note that the order of this timeline is approximate. Many of the theorists were working at the same time, had multiple publications, or built off of one another’s ideas, causing the dates to overlap a bit. The first row of the timeline has been completed for you as an example. For each of the remaining rows, please do the following within the timeline (in your own words):  Briefly describe the important contributions/tenets of that particular theory or theorist. Pay special attention to their ideas about family (remember: theorists who talk about the infleunce of the “environment” are likely talking in part about family).

HUSS125 – CAT 2  In your description, try to focus on what helps to differentiate this particular theory/theorist from the others listed in the timeline. Once you have completed the timeline, write a narrative at least 500 words in length in which you compare and contrast the ideas from the theorists/theories summarized in your timeline. Detail any key themes you noticed in how theories about families and relationships have changed over time. A template for the organization of your narrative is provided below the timeline in Appendix A of this document (beginning on page 5).

HUSS125 – CAT 3 HUSS125 – CAT Grading Rubric Criteria Excellent Average Needs Improvement Points Timeline Content 45 points 38 - 45 points Entire timeline is completed with correct details in every row. For each listed theory/theorist, an accurate description is provided and ideas focused on family are discussed. 30 - 37 points The majority of rows in the timeline are completed with correct details. Mostly accurate information is provided to describe each listed theory/theorist and what that theory/theorist says about family or relationships. However, certain cells would benefit from additional detail and/or clarity. 0 - 29 points Few of the rows in the timeline are filled in accurately, rows are filled in completely, but details are inaccurate, or timeline is left blank. Narrative 45 points 38 - 45 points The narrative fully describes key similarities/differences between the theories/theorists and provides a thorough analysis of how theories related to family and relationships have evolved over time. The narrative is well reasoned, offers supporting details, and exemplifies higher-level thinking. 30 - 37 points The narrative briefly describes key similarities/differences between the theories/theorists, as well as identifying some themes in how theories related to family/relationships have changed over time. However, some supporting details or examples are lacking. Parts of the analysis show evidence of higher- level thinking and a basic understanding of the listed theories. 0 – 29 points The narrative is incomplete, lacking significant detail, or contains irrelevant or inaccurate information on key similarities/differences between the identified theories and/or the ways in which theories related to relationships and families have changed over time. Grammar and Spelling 10 points 9 - 10 points The visual organization of information in the rows of the timeline is easy to follow, with spaces or bullet points separating details.
