Directions

 

Suppose you are a member of a professional organization that is active on social media through a popular blog site. You have been talking about going back to school to complete your master’s degree with other members of the organization. Now you have been asked to write the next blog post on your decision to enroll in this program.

You must use at least two of the readings listed under Required Resources to support your work in this assessment. You may also use additional resources that you locate yourself, but you must use at least two from the list provided. Because this is a psychology course and your assessment will be geared towards psychology professionals, format it following APA guidelines (you may wish to use the APA Paper Template located in the Suggested Resources).
