Life Map Assignment Instructions
A Life Map is a pictorial narrative of your life that provides a visual road map of key events and experiences that have impacted your development. The goal is to trace significant moments of your life from birth to present day. Please watch the short video entitled Create a Map of Your Life to get started. You may be as creative as you like, however the map must be organized, legible, and a chronological pictorial account of your life from point A (past) to point B (present). If you are using symbols to depict emotions or positive/negative experiences, please include a map key or legend to explain. Wording should also be easily readable.
You may need to speak to parents or siblings to start your life map and identify key events from your earliest years. Then begin by organizing your thoughts and memories into a written timeline. Use the written timeline to create the map. Your map should be scanned and uploaded as a PDF. Images may be neatly hand-drawn, computer generated, real images, etc.
The map should cover biological, psychological, social, and spiritual key life events that highlight your social environment and development. Life events, milestones, and trajectory changing experiences that are unique to your development should be included to provide an overview of your life. As an adult, a minimum of 10-15 points on the map are needed. The map will be graded based up detail, creativity, and legibility. Please google images of life maps, that look like a map or visual timeline.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
Life Map Paper Assignment Instructions
An introspective analysis of one’s own life is important for social workers. The life course perspective emphasizes how our lives are shaped by relationships, transitions, decisions, etc., all of which impact our worldview, values, and biases. It is important that we understand ourselves and the lens through which we operate, so that we may better connect with those we serve.
For this assignment you will develop a 6–8-page paper, not including the title page and references, based upon your Life Map. Please use the Life Map to create a narrative that articulates your development from a life course perspective and incorporate various developmental theories. The paper must include a discussion of life changing events (use textbook terms such as life events, turning point, and trajectory), at least 2 developmental theories (major developmental theories include Erikson’s Theory of Psychosocial Development, Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development, Bowlby’s Theory of Attachment, and Kohlberg’s Theory of Moral Development). Fowler’s theory of spiritual/faith development must also be included. The textbook and 3 additional peer reviewed sources* should be cited, for a minimum of 4 scholarly sources.
The paper should begin with an introduction (age, sex, marital status, pets, employment, etc.), followed by organizational headings to include: Life Changing Events (any specific events or milestones that changed the trajectory of your life), Application of Developmental Theories (discuss and apply at least 2 theories), Spiritual Developmental (discuss Fowler’s theory and the development of your personal faith), and As a Social Worker (discuss how your personal development impacted or informed your desire for social work). In the introduction, please discuss why it is important for social workers to be aware of their own development.
If scripture is used in your paper, it should be properly cited and referenced. Please follow the instructions carefully, use the template provided, and use current APA format. “Upload” your paper as a Word document; PDFs cannot be graded. Please see APA information below to assist you:
Please review the 7th edition of the APA manual pages 261-262, page 266, Figure 8.2 (p.262), and Table 8.1 (p.266) for citation examples.
Please see page 325 for formatting of scripture citations and biblical references.
Please refer to page 270 for Principles of Direct Quotations. A citation is NOT synonymous with a direct quote. Direct quotes are NOT original content and should be used sparingly. The ability to paraphrase and summarize more effectively demonstrates critical thinking and comprehension.

Life Map Paper: My story
APA formatting requires double spacing and 1-inch margins. There are specific font types that are acceptable. Times New Roman 12-point font is traditionally the preferred choice. The title of your paper goes on the top line. It should be centered, bolded, and in title case. You will then write an introductory paragraph. You will not use the heading “Introduction”. The introduction should be basic and background information about you. Include information similar to a summary or bio, and include things such as age, race, sex, marital status, hobbies, religious preference, etc. Also discuss why you believe it is important for social workers to understand their own developmental history. The introductory paragraph contains a thesis sentence. This sentence gives the reader an idea of what to expect when reading the paper. It is often the last sentence of the paragraph.
Life Changing Events
In this section, discuss any life changing events that occurred and shaped your life. This may be a school experience, familial or personal trauma (only share what you are comfortable discussing), a move across the country, death in the family, birth in the family, accident, etc. Think of key things that may have shifted the trajectory of your life; the textbook refers to these as turning points. What is your recollection of how you were impacted? In what ways are you different because of these events?
Application of Developmental Theories
Critically analyze your development relative to the information in the text. Discuss at least 2 developmental theories and how you progressed through the stages. What were the milestones? In what ways have you successfully advanced through some stages? Where do you think you may have some work to do to successfully navigate through a stage? What challenges did you encounter? What insights have you gained about yourself, your social environment, and its impact upon you after reviewing developmental theories? At least 2 theories must be discussed. The text and 2 additional sources should be cited and referenced.
Spiritual Developmental
Use Fowler’s theory as a backdrop to discuss your spiritual development. Where do you feel that you are currently? What has the process felt like? What difficulties, questions, or setbacks have you encountered? How would you describe your spiritual worldview? Fowler’s theory should be cited and provide the foundational context of the discussion.
As a Social Worker
Discuss how your Life Map/life story has informed your desire to pursue a career in social work. Consider how your personal life story shapes your interaction within society. How will this impact your work with clients? Discuss how you plan to be true to yourself and still meet clients where they are when their values may be very different than your own.
