An Example of Conceptualizing

Sandwich Generation dilemma. Seniors continue to live longer and adults are postponing marriage and having children to later in life. This has created a generation squeeze where middle ages adults are left caring for their elder parents, who very much want to remain independent, while raising their own children and holding a job.

What is positive about his first paragraph is that the writer is gathering information rather broadly. It is positive because a good deal of information is on the table. The topic, however, is still very broad, however, several options can be pursued! To make this stronger a significant, single issue of concern could be identified.

This dual caregiver role can be very stressful for both the caregiver and the senior. Here is a bit of information that can be used and the writer goes on to look at a possible solution to the issue which is their volunteer site. Adult day care programs like the Hoover Center provide both relief to caregivers and companionship for seniors as they are able to improve their quality of life by remaining more alert and active during the day. The Adult Alive program provides participants with the opportunity to pursue educational interests interact socially and continue to access and contribute to the community as well as comprehensive health education and wellness component where the focus is prevention.

The specific program goals are as follows: Increase independence and self-reliance, Assist senior adults in remaining in their homes, Prevent premature institutionalization, and Increase resource accessibility. Reciprocity: Both seniors and caregivers benefit from this relief of stress and ability to remain active. As a volunteer I can learn from the seniors' life experiences and gain a since of companionship ad close friendships at formed from spending time with the participants.Here the writer is detailing some of the positive outcomes of the program. The challenge is to convert this writing from descriptive writing to technical writing. Many many of the words and phrases will be stated more concisely, turn into strong declarative statements, or be eliminated entirely. While the broad stroke is useful in getting ideas, one must be aware that that style of writing can be rather seductive and take you on an ill fated journey!

Mutual Interdependence: The seniors are dependent on me providing actives that stimulate their mind and body as I depend on their participation and words of wisdom to better. This is individually focused and does not include the family nor the community in the application.

(Inter)connectedness: After getting to know some of the participants we have found that we enjoy some of the some hobbies and have been to some of the same places. This is individually focused and does not include the family nor the community in the application. The definition of the concept has not been clearly identified. In appropriate application of the concept.

(Inter)relatedness: the Hoover Center has affected the lives of the participations and their caregivers. The program has also given me the chance to meet and learn from some amazing individuals. This is individually focused and does not include the family nor the community in the application. In addition, the definition of the concept is not integrated appropriately!

Transaction: Everyone at the center, from the staff to the participants, has a positive outlook on life and is welcoming to all who visit. This is truly a great group to be around. Without the center these seniors would be sitting at home alone in front of the television while letting their sharpness of mind and physical ability go to the wayside. This is individually focused and, while appropriate, does not include a discussion of the meaning of the concept.

Guess what? One concept is missing!!
