The student will complete 1 Discussion: Tweet Yourself – About Aging Successfully in this course. The student will post one thread of a maximum of 140 characters (note: characters, not words)
An old proverb says, “We get too soon old and too late smart.”
To help remedy this situation, your challenge is to learn about successful aging and then provide some wise advice to yourself using one of the most popular forms of modern communication … the tweet.
After reading Chapter 8 in our textbook, you will compose a tweet with the best advice you can provide about aging successfully!
If you are (ahem) of a more mature age you might consider directing your tweet to your younger self. If you have not yet experienced the joys of advancing maturity, consider directing your tweet to your older self.
Here are the rules: Your tweet must be written in your own words; abbreviations are acceptable. Incorporate ideas from at least two domains (physical, cognitive, social/emotional, or spiritual).
Note that you DO NOT have to post this to Twitter. We are simply using the style/format of a tweet. Your “tweet” will only be posted here as your initial thread in this discussion.
