The discussion this week focuses on ageism. You will need to consult with 3 older adults (preferably someone between ages 35-50, another between ages 51-65, and another who is 66+), such as your parents, grandparents, relatives, or neighbors. Collect the information and then put it in essay format.
First, ask yourself, and then ask the people you are interviewing, the following questions:
Second, for the interviewees, ask if the person has been exposed to societal attitudes because of his/her age AND what, if any, physical changes the person has noticed in his/her physical health and endurance.
Support what you write using the assigned textbook readings and articles. Comment on at least two of your classmates’ initial posts.
