|Adolescent Observation in Natural Setting |
| |
|Pretend you are an anthropologist looking for teenagers in their natural habitat. Find groups of adolescents at the mall, on the bus, hanging around the |
|high school, or wherever you can find some. Observe three adolescents. You may view them at the same place or different locations on different days. |
|Don’t try to watch three adolescents at one time. Focus on one at a time. Do look for adolescents who are with other people so you can observe social |
|interaction. Try to be at a place where you can hear some of what is being said without being too intrusive. (YOU MAY WANT TO TAKE THIS OBSERVATION SHEET|
|WITH YOU IN CASE YOUR BEHAVIOR IS QUESTIONED). |
|Learning Objective(s): | | | | | | |
|To develop the student’s awareness and understanding of adolescent stages of growth and development and social behaviors by making observations in a |
|realistic setting. The student will be able to identify adolescent stages of growth and development, describe interactions and interpret observations |
|citing course readings for justification.
