There is 2 parts. A discussion and an Assignment...
Discussion
Step 1: Remember and reflect upon formative influences on your own identity during your adolescence.
Chapter 13 of Child and Adolescent Development discusses adolescent identity formation at length. Before you reflect on your own social emotional development as an adolescent, review Chapter 13. With specific ideas surrounding the search for adolescent identity in mind, think back to your own development as an adolescent and reflect upon formative elements in your identity formation. You should consider the following components of and influences on adolescent identity in your reflection:
This first part of your discussion post should be both specific and reflective.
Step 2: Relate your identity reflection to influences on contemporary adolescent identity formation.
Compare your reflection to the specific content that discusses identity formation in our Lesson 12 materials. Then, relate your social emotional developmental experiences to those of adolescents who are “coming of age” today.
Please allow the following questions to guide your response:
Use specific details from the text to support your response. Cite sources appropriately.
ASSIGNMENT
This two-part assignment first asks you to analyze a media “text” that was designed for an adolescent audience and create a presentation that illustrates your analysis. Next, you must write an argumentative essay based on what your analytical, illustrative presentation shows about the impact of media messages on adolescents.
Step 1: Select a media text to analyze.
Begin this assignment by selecting a media text (e.g. a television, Internet, or magazine advertisement; a television show or film; etc.) that was designed for an adolescent-age audience. You should choose a text that was clearly made for adolescents and that sends messages about what adolescence is, what adolescents are like (or should be like), and what adolescents want (or should want). The text you choose should be open for analysis, meaning it should be both small enough and accessible enough for you to analyze it with careful analytical detail.
Step 2: Analyze the text and develop an illustrative presentation of your findings.
Once you’ve chosen a media text to analyze, think about the text with the questions below in mind.
What does the text suggest about:
Then, design a presentation that illustrates your analysis. The goal is to show your audience what one specific media text communicates to and reflects about adolescents who are coming of age in contemporary U.S. society.
Step 3: Write an argumentative paper based on your analysis.
Once you have developed a presentation that illustrates your media analysis, think about how the media text functions and what its effects or consequences might be. Your goal is to write an argumentative essay that answers the following questions:
Your paper should correspond with the details of your analysis from Step Two, and both parts of the assignment should be supported with specific content from the text. Cite all sources appropriately.
